Abstract :
We propose to improve the throughput performance of optical burst switching by using regional controller nodes and window-based reservation. Both methods increase the information available to the intermediate nodes during scheduling decisions. Simulations show that the proposed reservation schemes provide significant improvement in the throughput performance compared with the original optical burst switching when the network is heavily loaded.
