A Viable Passive Optical Network Design for Ultrahigh Definition TV Distribution

Window - Based Permit Distribution Scheme for ATM Passive Optical Network ∗

Recent progress in the optical transmission technology makes an ATM passive optical network (APON) a good candidate for access networks. APON based on tree topology requires efficient medium access control (MAC) to multiplex upstream data flows efficiently while not disturbing the original pattern. In this paper, we proposed a Window-based permit distribution scheme for the MAC protocol of APON...

Optical Network Design with Geographic Distribution Information

An accurate estimation of network performance is critical for the success of optical networks design. Traffic modeling and availability modeling for optical network are at heart of optical network design. Traffic models and availability models need to be accurate and able to capture the statistical characteristics of the actual traffic and the ability of a network to sustain failures. However, ...

A multi-period distribution network design model under demand uncertainty

Supply chain management is taken into account as an inseparable component in satisfying customers' requirements. This paper deals with the distribution network design (DND) problem which is a critical issue in achieving supply chain accomplishments. A capable DND can guarantee the success of the entire network performance. However, there are many factors that can cause fluctuations in input dat...

Multimode Passive Optical Network for LAN Application

A Mathematical Model for City Logistics Distribution Network Design with the Aim of Minimizing Response Time

Recently, urbanization has been expanded rapidly in the world and a number of metropolitan areas have been appeared with a population of more than 10 million people. Because of dense population in metropolitan and consequently increasing the delivery of goods and services, there has been a lot of problems including traffic congestion, air pollution, accidents and high energy consumption. This m...
