- Light Trails: A Sub-Wavelength Solution for Optical Networking
- All-optical networks are able to transport data from source to destination entirely in the optical domain. This is a departure from current optical networks that rely on Optical-Electrical-Optical OEO conversion at each intermediate connection node to route data properly. The opacity inherent in traditional networks is costly in terms of...

- WebSphere Application Server for z/OS V6: Heterogeneous Cells - Cells With Nodes on Mixed Operating System Platforms
- When WebSphere Application Server V5 for z/OS came out back in 2004, it had one notable restriction, the cell had to exist entirely on z/OS. Further, it had to exist entirely within the same Sysplex. With WebSphere for z/OS Version 6 that restriction no longer exists. Now a WebSphere cell...

- Preconfiguring IP-Over-Optical Networks to Handle Router Failures and Unpredictable Traffic
- This paper considers the realization of traffic-oblivious routing in IP-over-Optical networks where routers are interconnected over a switched optical backbone. The traffic-oblivious routing the paper considers is a scheme where incoming traffic is first distributed in a preset manner to a set of intermediate nodes. The traffic is then routed...
