    摘要: A technique for routing data within an optical network having a plurality of network nodes is disclosed. In one embodiment, the technique is realized by receiving data at a first network node via a first optical signal having a first wavelength. The first wavelength corresponds to a first optical frequency, and the first optical frequency is mapped to a first binary representation. The first binary representation is divided into a first plurality of fields, wherein at least one of the first plurality of fields corresponds to a routing label in a first label stack. A top routing label in the first label stack indicates a second network node. Based at least partially upon the top routing label, the data is transmitted from the first network node to the second network node via a second optical signal having a second wavelength. The first wavelength may be either the same as or different from the second wavelength.

    摘要: A technique for wave-mixing bulk frequency conversion in a network comprising one or more channels is disclosed that enables cost-effective wavelength-conversion. In one particular exemplary embodiment, the technique may be realized by a new class of multi-log wave-mixing-cross-connects that are based on arbitrary b×b space-switching elements, where b>2. In such cross-connects, for any light-path, the worst case number of cascaded frequency-conversions is O(logb(FW)), F being the number of fibers. One benefit of the new design may be maximized when W=O(F), b=O(F), and the worst-case number of cascaded conversions is O(1).

    摘要: Various techniques for queue management based on random early detection (RED) are disclosed herein. In particular, a method for generating a drop probability for an incoming packet in a device having a queue to buffer packets between segments of a network is provided. The method comprises determining, upon receipt of an incoming packet, a size of the queue and determining an error based at least in part on a difference between the queue size and a threshold. The method further comprises determining a drop probability for the incoming packet based at least in part on the error and a constant gain factor. The constant gain factor may be based at least in part on a linearized second order dynamic model of the network.

    摘要: Label information used by a downstream LSR is mirrored on an upstream LSR. In particular, a copy of the label information database in the downstream LSR from LDP sessions is stored on the upstream LSR. The label information database and corresponding mirror are synchronized. The mirror is employed to facilitate recovery from control plane failure through comparison of the label information database with the mirror. For example, the intersection of the label information database and the mirror may be calculated and employed as the updated label information database and mirror.
