The article analyzes the influence of the IP access interface on the packet loss probability and delay times in the optical packet switched network. The network and node model have been proposed, and the assembler and hold features have been included in th ...

We consider a source that transmits to a receiver by routing the information packets over a communication network and examine rate benefits that finite complexity processing at the intermediate nodes may offer. We show that the processing capabilities of t ...
The proliferation of hotspots based on IEEE 802.11 wireless LANs brings the promise of seamless Internet access from a large number of public locations. However, as the number of users soars, so does the risk of possible misbehavior; to protect themselves, ...
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 ...
This paper presents ModelNet, a scalable Internet emulation environment that enables researchers to deploy unmodified software prototypes in a configurable Internet-like environment and subject them to faults and varying network conditions. Edge nodes runn ...
CSMA/CA protocols rely on the random deferment of packet transmissions. Like most other protocols, CSMA/CA was designed with the assumption that the nodes would play by the rules. This is important, since the nodes themselves control their random deferment ...
By extending the system theory under the (min,+)-algebra to the time varying setting, we solve the problem of constrained traffic regulation and develop a calculus for dynamic service guarantees. For a constrained traffic regulation problem with maximum to ...
In this paper, we propose an architecture for hybrid services, i.e., services that span many network technologies, especially the PSTN and the Internet. These services will play an important role in the future, because they leverage on the existing infrast ...
Agentcities is a worldwide initiative designed to help realize the commercial and research potential of agent-based applications by constructing an open distributed network of platforms hosting diverse agents and services. The ultimate aim of the Agentciti ...
