Dynamic time-deterministic traffic in a fiber-optic WDM star network
نویسندگان
چکیده
A number of protocols for WDM (Wavelength Division Multiplexing) star networks have been proposed. However, the area of real-time protocols for these networks is quite unexplored. In this paper, a real-time protocol, based on TDM (Time Division Multiplexing), for fiber-optic star networks is presented. By the use of WDM, multiple Gb/s channels are achieved. Services for both guarantee-seeking messages and best-efort messages are supported for single destination, multicast, and broadcast transmission. Slot reserving can be used to increase the time-deterministic bandwidth, while still having an eflcient bandwidth utilization due to a simple slot release method. The deterministic properties of the protocol are analyzed and simulation results presented.

Thee Supercomputerr Supernet: Aa Scalablee Distributedd Terabitt Network
ABSTRACT — Conventional supercomputer interconnection networks consist of crossbar modules, which are connected by point–to–point copper or fiber links to create distributed mesh topologies (e.g., CP*, Nectar). This type of ”physical networking” topology creates cable layout problems, dealing with bundles of cables/fibers between various pairs of modules. It also introduces several routing hops...
متن کاملDynamic traffic grooming in WDM mesh networks using a novel graph model
As our fiber-optic backbone networks migrate from interconnected SONET rings to arbitrary mesh topology, traffic grooming on WDM mesh networks becomes an extremely important research problem. (Traffic grooming refers to the problem of efficiently packing a set of low-speed connection requests onto high-capacity channels.) To address this problem, we employ a new, generic graph model for dynamic...

The emergence of wavelength division multiplexing (WDM) technology has significantly increased the transmission capacity of a link in today's optical networks. In WDM networks, the bandwidth request of a traffic stream is usually much lower than the capacity of a wavelength. Traffic grooming can aggregate low-rate connections onto high-capacity optical fibers to make an efficient use of the ban...

A major challenge in design of future generation high-speed networks is to provide guaranteed quality of service for the real-time multimedia applications. In this paper, we study the problem of providing guaranteed deterministic performance service to the real-time and variable length messages in wavelength division multiplexing (WDM) optical networks. In particular, we propose an admission co...
