In this paper we consider implementing optical burst switching as a technology for building
grids with computationally intensive requirements. This architecture has been referred to as …

In this paper we consider implementing optical burst switching as an alternative approach to
meet computationally intensive grid applications. Such architecture has been referred to as …

We define and investigate the problem of multi-resource manycast over optical burst
switched (OBS) networks for supporting distributed computing applications. In multi-resource …

We present a communication paradigm called “anycasting,” which is defined as delivering
traffic from a source node to any one destination among a set of recipients in the network. An …

To deliver virtually unlimited computing power to residential users, an anycast routed optical
burst switched grid infrastructure is proposed. This architecture is evaluated and compared …

In this paper we propose a novel architecture for the control plane of an application aware
optical burst switching (OBS) network, able to support grid computing applications. We …

Reducing burst contention is an inherently challenging problem in optical burst switched
(OBS) networks. We present a new proactive approach for tackling this problem; the …

In This work we present a linear programming formulation for the routing problem in optical
burst switching networks (OBS). Unlike in conventional wavelength routed networks, in an …

This paper presents novel network architecture, called optical burst transport network
(OBTN), which can efficiently transport burst data over a virtual topology and reduce the port …

Grid computing provides a flexible, secure, sharing of resources among dynamic collections
of individuals, institutions, and resources. Optical burst switching (OBS) is one of the most …
