The input-buffered wavelength-routed (IBWR) switch is a promising switching architecture
for slotted optical packet switching (OPS) networks. The benefits of the IBWR fabric are a …

This paper evaluates the performance of slotted Optical Packet Switching (OPS) switching
fabrics under self-similar traffic. The issue of how to synthesize a realistic self-similar traffic …

In this paper we propose an enhanced parallel iterative scheduler for IBWR synchronous
slotted OPS switches in SCWP mode. It obtains a maximal matching of packet demands …

This paper reports a summary of the joint research activities on Optical Core Networks within
the e-Photon-ONe+ project. It provides a reasonable overview of the topics considered of …

This paper addresses WDM optical packet rings which present a single control channel and
multiple data channels. These rings are intended as transport networks in metro areas, ie …

In this paper we propose a novel scheduling approach for optical packet switching (OPS)
WASPNET nodes, LBWS. Unlike the original WASPNET description, our scheduler is fully …

Packet order in slotted input buffer wavelength routed (IBWR) switches, operating under (i)
synchronous optical packet switching (OPS),(ii) scattered wavelength path (SCWP) …

The input‐buffered wavelength‐routed (IBWR) switch is a scalable switch fabric for optical
packet switching (OPS) networks. In synchronous operation, when optical packets are of a …

In [5] we proposed the load balanced WASPNET scheduler (LBWS), a novel scheduling
approach for WASPNET optical packet switching (OPS) nodes. Unlike the original …

This chapter summarises the activities on optical packet switching (OPS) and optical burst
switching (OBS) carried out by the COST 291 partners in the last 4 years. It consists of an …
