Project description
We study algorithms for flexible switching in optical packet-switched networks. By means of queueing models and analytic optimization techniques we evaluate the performance of existing algorithms. This characterization allows to propose modified algorithms, interacting flexibly with the instantaneous variations of traffic over the network.
