Abstract

Optical Burst Switching (OBS) was proposed as a hybrid switching technology solution to handle the multi-Terabit volumes of traffic anticipated to traverse Future Generation backbone Networks. With OBS, incoming data packets are assembled into super-sized packets called data bursts and then assigned an end to end light path. Key challenging areas with regards to OBS Networks implementation are data bursts assembling and scheduling at the network ingress and core nodes respectively as they are key to minimizing subsequent losses due to contention among themselves in the core nodes. These losses are significant contributories to serious degradation in renderable QoS. The paper overviews existing methods of enhancing it at both burst and transport levels. A distributed resources control architecture is proposed together with a proposed wavelength assignment algorithm.
