Sun Workstations as Cypress Implets

This paper reports on an experiment in which a Sun 3/50 workstation was used as a packet switch in a leased line based network. We conclude that the Sun is both capable and cost effective. • This work was supported in part by gnmts Iran the National &::iCJlee Foundation's Office. of Advanced Sc:iCJltifie Computing (NSF·851·8639), with addilional supportIrom Digital Equipment CoTpOllltion, CSNET...

Design of Arrayed Waveguide Grating based Optical Switch for High Speed Optical Networks

This paper demonstrates the design of an Arrayed Waveguide Gratings (AWG) based optical switch. In the design both physical and network layer analysis is performed. The physical layer power and noise analysis is done to obtain Bit Error Rate (BER). This has been found that at the higher bit rates, BER is not affected with number of buffer modules. Network layer analysis is done to obtain perfor...

Performance Study of a Regulated Switch System for Double Priority Traffic

In this paper, we use simulation to evaluate the performance of a regulated internetworking packet switching system under various values of double priority offered load. The switch system under study uses buffers which have two regulators. One of them is called the Low Regulator and the other the High Regulator. The two regulators divide the queue into three segments in which different policies...

AWG Based Optical Packet Switch Architecture

This paper discusses an optical packet switch (OPS) arch itecture, which utilizes the components like optical reflectors, tunable wavelength converters (TWCs), arrayed waveguide grating (AW G) and pieces of fiber to realize the switching action. This architecture uses routing pattern of AW G, and its symmetric nature, to simplify switch operation significantly. It is also shown that using multi...
