We consider the problem of designing systems for the transmission of high-quality video signals over certain high-speed segments of the public IP network. Our most important contribution is the definition of a network/coder interface for IP networks which ...
A single failure in a communication network may trigger many alarms. When the communication network uses optical fibres as transmission medium and increases its capacity by using Wavelength Division Multiplexing (WDM), the number of alarms and the difficul ...
All-optical packet switching has been intensively investigated in recent years as an alternative to static, crossconnect based networks. Several switch architectures have been proposed, all of them using buffers made of fibre delay lines. The paper address ...
We consider the problem of distributing high-quality video signals over IP multicast in large Local Area Networks (LANs), under real-time delay constraints, and with software-only processing. In a large LAN (such as the network of a university campus, or t ...
In this thesis we study two routing problems related to mobility. The first problem concerns scalable multicast routing when there is a large number of multicast groups with a small number of receivers. Existing dense and sparse mode routing protocols have ...
Recent developments in transmission and switching technology has made available low-cost gigabit network capacity forpacket-based WANs (e.g., IP over WDM), that will not require the intermediate SONET/SDH multiplexing layer. For competitive operators that ...
Due to the limited number of available IP addresses most computers on the Internet use dynamic IP addresses which causes problems for applications that have to maintain rout-ing tables, for example, peer-to-peer systems. To overcome this we propose unique ...
In this paper we simulated terminode routing. This routing scheme is designed for wide area networks, where a large part or all the nodes are mobile. Terminode routing is a combination of two protocols called Terminode Local Routing (TLR) and Terminode Rem ...
Fault identification and location in optical networks is hampered by a multitude of factors: (i) the redundancy and the lack of coordination (internetworking) of the managements at the different layers (WDM, SDH/SONET, ATM, IP) ...
We propose an Alarm Filtering Algorithm (AFA) for the fault management of an optical network that supports multiple failures and works in the presence of passive elements, that is, network elements which may fail but never generate an alarm (e.g. optical f ...
