In this letter, we analyze the drawback of tail-dropping contention resolution in optical burst
switched networks. Once contention occurs, we adopt modified head-dropping policy to …

We provide the simulation of optical burst switching network for different signaling schemes.
Our experiment shows that the INI scheme is more flexible, and is able for reconfiguration in …

In this paper, the optical burst switching with burst dropping (OBS/BD) technique is proposed
to be implemented in an all-optical backbone network to support IP traffic. The OBS/BD is …

One of the main drawbacks of classical Optical Burst Switching (OBS) solutions is the loss of
bursts when contentions occur. Time-domain Wavelength Interleaved Networking (TWIN) is …

We discuss a number of operation and maintenance (OAM) issues in optical burst-switched
(OBS) networks and propose an OAM framework in this respect. Four OBS functions are …

As the optical network evolves from static long haul connection provider to an adaptive and"
smart" backbone solution, optical burst switching (OBS) becomes an attractive scheme for its …

We propose and evaluate two new schemes for providing differentiated services in optical
burst switched (OBS) networks. The two new schemes are suitable for implementation in …

Abstract Optical Burst Switching (OBS) has been proposed in the late 1990s as a novel
photonic network architecture directed towards efficient transport of IP traffic. OBS aims at …

Optical burst switching (OBS) has been proposed as a new optical switching paradigm for
the next generation Internet due to its flexibility and feasibility compared to OCS and OPS …

In this paper the Just-Enough-Time (JET) optical burst switching mechanism is investigated.
The role of two important parameters, the per-hop-offset and burst-length/processing-time …
