چکیده
This paper studies loss performance of optical burst switching (OBS) with assembled burst traf£c input by exploring the characteristics of assembled burst traf£c. We analyze the smoothing effect of assembly algorithms, which changes the statistical properties of packet ¤ows, and £nd that assembly algorithms smooth the short range burstiness in packet traf£c and thus enhance the loss performance in OBS. Based on the characteristics of such assembled burst traf£c, an accurate loss model for OBS is provided, which works much better than traditional loss models in packet switching networks.

In this paper, the optical composite burst switching (OCBS) technique is proposed to be implemented in an all-optical backbone network to support Internet protocol (IP) traffic. The OCBS is based on two main features. First, several IP packets are assembled in a single macropacket, called burst. Second, the burst contention in an optical switch is handled by means of two techniques, the wavelen...
