The framework for MPLS in transport networks (RFC 5921) provides reference models for the MPLS Transport Profile (MPLS-TP) Transport Service Interfaces, which are a User-to-Network Interface (UNI), and a Network-to-Network Interface (NNI). This document updates those reference models to show detailed reference points for these interfaces, along with further clarification of the functional archi...

A model of an overall telecommunication network with virtual circuits switching, in stationary state, with Bernoulli-Poisson-Pascal (BPP) input flow, repeated calls, limited number of homogeneous terminals and 8 types of losses is considered. One of the main problems of network redimensioning is estimation of the traffic offered in the network because it reflects on finding of necessary number ...

ECLIPSE is a next-generation virtual telecommunication network that provides multimedia services that integrate voice, video, text, and images. ECLIPSE facilitates the modular decomposition of new telecommunication services. In this paper we sketch the challenges we face in making ECLIPSE highly available when running on top of a heterogenous and widely distributed system. We describe how we ap...

In order to facilitate interoperability in a network composed of next generation lambda-switch-capable equipment, this document defines a standard lambda label format that is compliant with the Dense Wavelength Division Multiplexing (DWDM) and Coarse Wavelength Division Multiplexing (CWDM) grids defined by the International Telecommunication Union Telecommunication Standardization Sector. The l...

the aim of this research is to prioritize the key factors for implementation of idea virtual bank (ivb) in telecommunication industry. the current applied and descriptive research was conducted based on a survey. the population of this research consisted of all users of ivb and idea submitters to suggestion system of telecommunication industry in province of razavi-khorasan that 70 of them were...

In this paper, we present a platfonn called MadKit that allows the generic development of multi-agent system based on the organisational concept. Three main objects are defined: agents, groups and roles. We propose to illustrate this concept of organisation in a telecommunication environment. Our main objective is to show the possible use ofthe MadKit platfonn in the context of network modellin...

the network design problem (ndp) is one of the important problems in combinatorial optimization. among the network design problems, the multicommodity capacitated network design (mcnd) problem has numerous applications in transportation, logistics, telecommunication, and production systems. the mcnd problems with splittable flow variables are np-hard, which means they require exponential time t...
