Abstract

This paper discusses the influence of setup message processing time and optical switch configuration time on the performance of IP over optical burst switched mesh networks using one-way resource reservation protocols. It is shown that the network performance is almost independent of the optical switch configuration time for values smaller than 0.1ms. It is shown that setup message processing time does not have a significant impact on the network performance and it is shown that the five resource reservation protocols under study have a similar performance in both ring and mesh networks.
