The future Internet is driven by applications that require simultaneous access to multiple
heterogeneous IT resources interconnected by high-speed optical network. Current …

Sažetak Network resource management is one of the most important issues in any
communication network and this is also the case for optical networks with burst switching …

In this paper, we propose a mechanism to provide quality of service (QoS) consistency over
hybrid optical and wireless access networks. The proposed scheme utilizes QoS allocations …

The fact that the Internet is a packet-based connection-less network is the main driver to
develop a data-centric transport network. In this context, the optical burst switching (OBS) …

Traditional optical WDM networks set up end-to-end optical connections by reserving a
wavelength. Unfortunately, this coarse granularity leads to inefficient use of network …

Due to the tremendous growth of traffic volume caused by both exponential increase of
number of Internet users and continual emergence of new bandwidth demanding …

Long-Reach Passive Optical Network (LRPON) technology seems to be a strong candidate
for next generation optical access networks. LRPON aims to combine the advantages of …

In this paper we study the problem of scheduling variable-length frames in WDM-PON under
Stanford University access (SUCCESS), a next-generation hybrid WDM/TDM optical access …

This paper describes an analytical model for a 3-level quality of service scheduling in hybrid
optical networks. Three service profiles with different requirements are considered, namely …

Passive optical networks: have shown to be much more attractive than access networks. In
this paper, we study the problem of transmitting multimedia video traffic on a passive …
