In contrast, the reduced level of traffic aggregation in access and  metro networks makes wavelength routing solutions not adequate. In  these network areas, packet-interleaved optical time-division  multiplexing with its finer and more dynamic bandwidth allocation is  advocated. \u003cbr\u003e  The book presents such an approach, known as photonic slot routing. It  illustrates how this approach may provide a cost-effective solution to  deploying all-optical transport networks, using today's optical device  technology. To that end, the author combines DWDM-technology with  fixed slot optical switching, and gives a comprehensive description of  this approach in which slots are aligned across the wavelengths to  form groups of data-flows that propagate as a whole inside the  network. Operating algorithms are developed, and network performance  is analyzed, both by means of theoretical analysis and many  simulations of sample networks. \u003cbr\u003e  This work will be of particular interest to researchers and  professionals who are active in photonic networking.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublished by: Springer\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublication Date: 2002-12-31\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFormat: Hardcover\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN-13: 9781402073489\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDOI: 10.1007\/978-1-4615-0317-0\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDimensions: 235cm x155cm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePages: 207\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Springer US","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47185162043532,"sku":"9781402073489","price":98.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9781402073489.jpg?v=1775012683","url":"https:\/\/lateknightbooks.com\/products\/9781402073489","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
