Fixed Size and Variable Size Packet Models in an Optical Ring Network: Complexity and Simulations
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper, we compare the use of two packet models in slotted optical ring networks: a model where each packet has to be routed in consecutive slots, and a model where the slots that form a packet can be routed independently. We first focus on the algorithmic complexity of the related problems. Then, we give the results we obtain with an OMNET simulator in terms of packets’ overdelay and jitter.

Wavelength 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...

In this paper, a new design of optical channel drop filter based on two- dimensional photonic crystal ring resonators with triangular lattice is proposed. The rods of this structure is silicon with the refractive index 3.46 and the surrounding environment is air with the refractive index of 1.The widest photonic band gap obtained is for filling ratio of r/a = 0.2. The filter’s transmission spec...
متن کاملA-MWM: A Low Complexity Packet-Mode Scheduling Algorithm
In a packet switching system, arriving packets have variable lengths. They are segmented into fixed size cells before being switched. In packet-mode scheduling, cells from a packet should be delivered contiguously. Even though fixed-size cell scheduling has been well studied, packet-mode scheduling has more advantages: it has a lower implementation cost and higher throughput. In this paper, we ...
متن کاملOptical Packet Ring Optimization for the Assessment of Tradeoff between QoS and Design Cost
Many methods for finding the optimal design of an optical packet switching ring network are without the performance guarantees, leading to the unexpected network behavior in terms of the QoS performance that network offers to its clients. The inter-dependability between the network QoS performances and the cost optimal design of an optical packet switching ring with a single tunable transmitter...
