We present an architecture for a core dWDM network which utilizes the concept of optical
burst switching coupled with a just-in-time signaling scheme. It is a reservation-based …

We present a detailed analysis of the JIT, JET, and Horizon wavelength reservation
schemes for optical burst switched (OBS) networks. Our analysis accounts for several …

We describe:(i) the architecture of an optical burst switched (OBS) demonstration network
overlaying the ATDnet transparent all-optical testbed, and (ii) experiments underway in the …

This paper proposes a new resource reservation protocol for optical burst switching
networks, called enhanced just-in-time (E-JIT). E-JIT intends to improve and optimize the …

In this paper, we discuss for the first time the issue of supporting manycasting service over
optical burst-switched (OBS) networks. One of the primary challenges in providing …

This article describes deployments of the JumpStart architecture and protocols in several
ultra-high-performance optical networking testbeds. JumpStart interoperates with a variety of …

This thesis studies the optical burst switched (OBS) networks. It consists of three parts. In the
first part, we present a detailed analysis of three major wavelength reservation schemes for …

Optical burst switching (OBS) was proposed as an alternative optical switching paradigm, in
order to overcome the limitations of optical circuit and optical packet switching paradigms. In …

Current fast-growing Internet traffic is demanding increased network capacity each day, as
well as support for differentiated services. Wavelength-division multiplexing (WDM) …

In this paper, we present a performance assessment of one-way resource reservation
protocols in optical burst switched (OBS) mesh networks. The performance analysis …
