Web and other Internet-based server farms are a critical company resource. A solution to the increased complexity of server farms and to the need to improve the server performance in terms of scalability, fault tolerance and management is to implement a lo ...
One of the activities of the ACTS project EXPERT is to perform trials demonstrating the use of advancedResource Management and Routing (RMR) algorithms in ATM networks. The RMR model chosen for those trials is based on the Virtual Trunk (VT) concept. In AT ...
We propose a new optical physical layer and protocol for optical Load Area Networks (LANs), which allow a large number of hosts to be connected while offering a large capacity and exhibiting a high degree of modularity and scalability. The physical layer o ...
A large number of products implementing aggregate buffering and scheduling mechanisms have been developed and deployed, and still more are under development. With the rapid increase in the demand for reliable end-to-end QoS solutions, it becomes increasing ...
The literature contains propositions for the use of overlay networks to supplement the normal IP routing functions with higher-level information in order to improve aspects of network behavior. We consider the use of such an overlay to optimize the end-to- ...
This paper presents a new physical layer demonstrator for Optical Local Area Network. It offers a large total capacity to a large number of connected nodes without requiring optical amplifiers and achieves high modularity and scalability. A new multichanne ...
The paper proposes design criteria for the choice of the amount of prestressing. Based on an extension of the well known load balancing method, the proposed criteria permit a simple and effective design of the amount of prestressing at serviceability. The ...
Current resource reservation architectures for multimedia networks do not scale well for a large number of flows. We propose a new architecture that automatically aggregates flows on each link in the network. Therefore, the network has no knowledge of indi ...
A large number of products implementing aggregate buffering and scheduling mechanisms have been developed and deployed, and still more are under development. With the rapid increase in the demand for reliable end-to-end QoS solutions, it becomes increasing ...
Mapping algorithm for protecting a network using a Wavelength Division Multiplexing (WDM) infrastructure against component or link failures while respecting capacity constraints. ...
