Fill the Void: Improved Scheduling for Optical Switching

Abstract: Abstract-With ever-increasing demand for bandwidth, optical packet/burst switching is proposed to utilize more of the available capacity of optical networks in the future. In these packet-based switching techniques, packet contention on a single wavelength is resolved effectively by means of Fiber Delay Lines. The involved scheduling algorithms are typically designed to minimize packet loss and/or packet delay. By filling so-called voids, void-filling algorithms are known to outperform their non-void-filling c… Show more

“…As these void-filling algorithms keep track of all voids this improvement comes at the cost of an increased computational complexity. In [21,18] we therefore proposed a totally new type of algorithm for a single wavelength set-up(and thus without wavelength conversion), the void-creating algorithm, that selectively creates larger voids only when they will likely be filled in the future. This algorithm does not only fill the available voids, it also, based on the system conditions, controls the creation of the voids enabling better switch performance.…”

“…Fixed size packets on a single wavelength. To achieve a better performance without excessively increasing the computational cost we proposed the voidcreating algorithm in [21,18] for the setting of a single wavelength and a fixed packet size equal to the granularity (E[B] = B = D). In this setting a possible provisional schedule looks like Fig.…”
