Design of Storage Area Network Based on Metro WDM Networking
نویسنده
چکیده
Storage Area Networks (SANs) have become an essential part of today’s enterprise computing. The paper reports the design of SANs based on metro Wavelength Division Multiplexing (WDM) networks technologies. It reviews related SAN technologies. It also presents analysis and simulation results of a proposed architecture. Throughput, delay and packet dropping probability results are presented under Poisson and self-similar traffic.

Design and performance evaluation of a metro WDM storage area network with IP datagram support
Storage area networks (SANs) are becoming an important part of optical MANs (metropolitan area networks). Growing storage and business-continuity needs; high-bandwidth, low latency requirements for SANs; storage infrastructure consolidation; and post-9/11 regulatory issues are among the several driving factors to push this trend. We, in this paper, consider a metro wavelength division multiplex...
متن کاملWavelength Reuse for Efficient Transport of Variable-Size Packets in a Metro WDM Network
Metro WDM networks play an important role in the emerging Internet hierarchy; they interconnect the backbone WDM networks and the local access networks. The current SONET/SDH–over–WDM–ring metro networks are expected to become a serious bottleneck — the so–called metro gap — as they are faced with an increasing amount of bursty data traffic and quickly increasing bandwidths in the backbone netw...

متن کاملPerformance Evaluation of Transmission Algorithms for CSMA/ID WDM Ring Networks
As data traffic increase rapidly, IP over WDM (Wavelength Division Multiplexing) transport will replace conventional SONET transport in current metropolitan area networks. Such networks will require new MAC protocols to efficiently share network bandwidth among multiple network nodes. This research project describes and evaluates a novel Carrier Sense Multiple Access with Idle Detection (CSMA/I...
