Optical Burst Switching (OBS) is not only cost-effective, but also provides high throughput, high bandwidth utilization, and low transmission latency. These benefits render OBS a ...
In ATM UBR networks supporting TCP traffic, optimal efficiency can only be envisaged if switches adopt a discard mechanism that operates at the packet level rather than the cell l...
In a multi-service network such as ATM, adaptive data services ( such as ABR) share the bandwidth left unused by higher priority services. The network indicates to the ABR sources ...
— The proliferation of wireless and mobile devices has fostered the demand of context aware applications, in which location is often viewed as one of the most significant context...
In this paper we address the problem of providing transparent, reliable, and efficient network-level multicasting in wormhole LANs. We describe some alternatives for achieving dea...
