Internet-Drafts are working documents of the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF), its areas, and its working groups. Note that other groups may also distribute working documents as Internet-Drafts. Internet-Drafts are draft documents valid for a maximum of six months and may be updated, replaced, or obsoleted by other documents at any time. It is inappropriate to use Internet-Drafts as refer...

The Border Gateway Protocol (BGP) is the path vector routing protocol that connects different autonomous systems.. These ASes have unique integer numbers which assign by IANA organization. The traditional BGP protocol is not sufficient to provide security and authentication for AS path and verification of AS number ownership as well as network IP prefix. The BGP remains vulnerable to various ty...

As an important pipeline stage in the router of Network-on-Chips, switch allocation assigns output ports to input and allows flits transit through without conflicts. Previous work designed efficient strategies by maximizing matching efficiency time series. However, those works neglected interaction between different stages. In this article, we propose concept Utility-of-Allocation (UoA) indicat...

Routers are key building blocks in networks. They need to cope with high data rates in the range of multiple gigabit per second that are owing through them. Therefore, speciically performance critical functions should be implemented in dedicated hardware units in order to speed up the forwarding task. These units can be embedded within regular workstations or into dedicated router architectures...

This paper introduces a modeling framework for network processing systems. The framework is composed of independent application, system and traffic models which describe router functionality, system resources/organization and packet traffic, respectively. The framework uses the Click Modular router to describe functionality. Click modules are mapped onto an object-based description of the syste...

in future high-speed self-routing photonic networks based on all-optical time division multiplexing (otdm) it is highly desirable to carry out packet switching, clock recovery and demultplexing in the optical domain in order to avoid the bottleneck due to the optoelectronics conversion. in this paper we propose a self-routing otdm node structure composed of an all-optical router and demultiplex...
