We compile and classify the research work conducted for Ethernet passive optical networks.
We examine PON architectures and dynamic bandwidth allocation algorithms. Our …

Since the first paper on polling systems, written by Mack in 1957, a huge number of papers
on this topic has been written. A typical polling system consists of a number of queues …

Optical networks are poised to dominate the access network space in coming years.
Ethernet passive optical networks, which leverage the ubiquity of Ethernet at subscriber …

Optical fibre access to the user, the so-called Fibre-to-the-Home (FTTH), is becoming a
