This paper presents a new QoS guarantee scheme called R-(m,k)-firm (Relaxed-(m,k)-firm) which provides the guarantee on transmission delay of at least m out of any k consecutive p...
Abstract— Wavelength converters simplify the wavelength assignment problem in virtual topology design in optical networks and increase the utilization of the fiber bandwidth. Ho...
This paper considers the problem of shape-from-shading using nearby planar distributed illuminants. It is shown that a rectangular planar nearby distributed uniform isotropic illu...
We prove an upper bound, tight up to a factor of 2, for the number of vertices of level at most in an arrangement of n halfspaces in Rd , for arbitrary n and d (in particular, the...
In this paper, the performance model for a lossless OBS edge node is built with respect to the queueing performance of the transmission buffer. In contrast to the shaping effect...
