An Analytical Approach to Optical Burst Switched Networks

This book presents the state of the art results on modeling and analysis of OBS networks. It provides researchers with new directions for future research and helps them gain a better understanding of modeling OBS networks. This book classifies all the literature on modeling and analysis of OBS networks and serves as a thought provoking material for the researchers working on the analysis of high-speed networks. The scope of this book however is not limited to OBS networks alone but extends to high-speed communication networks with limited or no buffers.

List of contents

to Optical Burst Switching.- Traffic Characteristics in OBS Networks.- Blocking Probability in OBS Networks.- Contention Resolution in OBS Networks.- TCP over OBS Networks.
