Abstract— As WDM technology matures and multicast applications become increasingly popular, supporting multicast at the WDM layer becomes an important and yet challenging topic. ...
Abstract--We explore the use of end-to-end multicast traffic as measurement probes to infer network-internal characteristics. We have developed in an earlier paper [2] a Maximum Li...
We present a method for providing response-time guarantees in Asynchronous Transfer Mode (ATM) networks. The method is based on traditional real-time CPU Response-Time Analysis (R...
—In most existing sender-initiated handshaking based underwater Media Access Control (MAC) protocols, only the initiating sender is allowed to transmit data packets to its intend...
This paper concerns the cross-layer design between physical layer and MAC (Multiple Access Control) layer in asynchronous wireless random access network. The proposed cross-layer d...
