Abstract :
This work develops an exact logical operation model to predict the performance of the all-optical shared memory architecture (OSMA) class of packet switches, under random or bursty traffic. The model also provides a means to obtain a reasonable approximation of OSMA switch element performance within certain types of networks, including the Banyan family
