GRE Encapsulated Multicast Probing: A Scalable Technique for Measuring One-Way Loss
White Paper Internet service providers increasingly wish to monitor the performance of customer traffic within their networks. This paper addresses the problem of scalably performing one-way loss measurements across specific network paths. [18 Jul 2008]
Dynamic GOP Structure Selection to Support QoS in Vertical Handoff
White Paper This paper proposes a dynamic GOP structure selection method to provide seamless video streaming for vertical handoff in the heterogeneous wireless network. The proposed method dynamically changes the interval of I-pictures by using the Received... [18 Jul 2008]
A Network Management Architecture for Robust Packet Routing in Mesh Optical Access Networks
White Paper This paper describes architecture for optical Local Area Network (LAN) or Metropolitan Area Network (MAN) access. The architecture allows for bandwidth sharing within a wavelength and is robust to both link and node failures. [18 Jul 2008]
Optical Switching: Switch Fabrics, Techniques, and Architectures
White Paper The switching speeds of electronics cannot keep up with the transmission capacity offered by optics. All-optical switch fabrics play a central role in the effort to migrate the switching functions to the optical layer. [18 Jul 2008]

A New QoS Routing Framework for Solving MCP
White Paper One purpose of Quality-of-Service (QoS) routing is to develop polynomial-time heuristic algorithms to tackle the MCP (Multi-Constrained-Path) problem, which is NP-complete. This paper introduces a new QoS routing heuristic framework, which focuses... [18 Jul 2008]
Probabilistic QoS Guarantee in Reliability and Timeliness Domains in Wireless Sensor Networks
White Paper This paper presents a novel packet delivery mechanism called Multi-path and Multi-Speed Routing Protocol (MMSPEED) for probabilistic QoS guarantee in wireless sensor networks. The QoS provisioning is performed in two quality domains, namely... [18 Jul 2008]
Dynamic Routing in Translucent WDM Optical Networks
White Paper Translucent WDM optical networks use sparse placement of regenerators to overcome the impairments and wavelength contention introduced by fully transparent networks, and achieve a performance close to fully opaque networks with much less cost. [18 Jul 2008]
Transforming the Data Center with Unified Fabric
