In optical burst switched networks contention is the main source of burst loss. The burst
retransmission resolves contention by retransmitting the contended burst at the optical burst …

In this work we propose an optical burst switching retransmission scheme without any loss of
bursts for star topology networks that exploits the entire network capacity. The basic idea is …

In optical burst switched (OBS) networks, burst loss is mainly due to contention that occurs at
both edge and core node. At edge node, contending burst may be electronically queued …

It is widely accepted that retransmitting bursts in Optical Burst Switching networks improves
the throughput at higher layers. Since the data is transported in large bursts and there are …

In optical burst switched networks contention is the main source of burst loss. Burst
retransmission is a reactive loss recovery mechanism that attempts to resolve contention by …

Optical burst switching (OBS) is the new switching technique for next generation optical
networks. However, there are certain issues such as burst aggregation, scheduling …

Optical Burst Switching (OBS) has become a mature technology to support the current and
next generation Internet over optical network backbones. In OBS networks contention is the …

Burst cloning reduces burst loss at core nodes by sending multiple copies of the same burst
through optical burst switched (OBS) network simultaneously in order to enhance probability …

This paper proposes a priority‐based duplicate burst transmission mechanism in an optical
burst switching network to enhance the probability of successful reception of bursts. The …

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 …
