  1. E. Sirén and E. Hyytiä, Delay Line Configurations in Optical Burst Switching with JET Protocol, COST279, TD(02)24, 2002 (pdf)(bib)
    Abstract: Optical burst switching networks have received a lot of attention in the research community in the recent years. The JET protocol, first proposed by Qiao and Yoo in 1997, is used for resource allocation in these networks. Up to the present, the JET protocol has been studied in networks that use wavelength conversion. In this paper the JET protocol is discussed in optical networks, where wavelength conversion is not possible, and thus the used wavelength channel is fixed at the edge router. To compensate for the missing wavelength conversion, optical buffers are used instead. In particular, the performance improvement of different delay line configurations is studied in this paper.
