- Denial of Service Attacks in Networks With Tiny Buffers
- Recently, several papers have studied the possibility of shrinking buffer sizes in Internet core routers to just a few dozen packets under certain constraints. If proven right, these results can open doors to building all-optical routers, since a major bottleneck in building such routers is the lack of large optical...

- Scalable Alternatives to Virtual Output Queuing
- To avoid head of line blocking in switches, Virtual Output Queues VOQs are commonly used. However, the number of VOQs grows quadratically with the number of ports, making this approach impractical for large switches. This paper proposes Dynamic Switch Buffer Management DSBM to tackle this problem. Similar to DBBM, it...

- Switched Optical Star-Topology Network With Edge Electronic Buffering and Centralized Control
- A star-topology local area network is designed to carry optical packet traffic, employing collision-free switching. Data forwarding is under centralized control based on scheduled resource reservation, eliminating the need for optical buffers in the central switch. Packets are stored in electronic buffers within the end stations prior to their electronic-to-optical...

- Analysis and Performance Evaluation of Optical Buffers
- How are future communication networks to cope with ever-increasing traffic demands? Currently, data (e.g. IP packets) handled in the back-bone network is transported optically, yet is switched electronically. Being a demanding and power-consuming process, current switches are becoming the bottleneck in the network. More recent techniques, such as Optical Packet...
