Carriers are under constant pressure to meet the ever-increasing bandwidth demand while
reducing cost per bit, enhancing network throughput, and offering a large variety of services …

In the future, the Internet may ultimately be constrained by energy consumption and the
capability to provide quality of service (QoS). As regards the Internet core, hybrid optical …

Sort-last parallel rendering can be improved by considering the rendering of multiple images
at a time. Most parallel rendering algorithms consider the generation of only a single image …

Abstract Optical Packet Switched (OPS) technology is under study as a promising solution
for addressing the rapid growth of network-intensive applications having different Quality of …

Optical switching technologies represent a promising solution for data center
interconnection networks to support the increasing bandwidth requirements of current cloud …

We report the first field trials of an integrated packet/circuit hybrid optical network. In a long-
haul field trial with production traffic, the mean capacity utilization of an Ethernet wavelength …

Integrated hybrid optical packet/circuit switched architectures enable networks with the
guaranteed service transport (GST) of circuit switching and the statistical multiplexing known …

Chip area and power consumption are the main restrictions for Network-on-Chip (NoC), a
high proportion of which is consumed by the buffers in the routers. Therefore, bufferless …

This paper describes the congestion resolution mechanism adopted in the network
interfaces of the 3-Level Integrated Hybrid Optical Network (3LIHON). In 3LIHON, three …
