Future wireless and optical networks: networking modes and cross-layer design

This book reviews the challenges of all-optical and wireless networks for thefuture Internet, with a focus on cross-layer design and optimization. Features: presents a thorough introduction to major networking modes and their effecton Internet development; proposes a new structure favorable for all-optical packet switching; discusses a new quality of service (QoS) provisioning approach, which overcomes the scalability problem of IntServ and the coarse QoS granularity of DiffServ; describes the end-to-end arguments in Internet design, before investigating a solution to congestion control problems in multi-hop wireless and all-optical networks; examines how to exploit multiple-input-multiple-output technology to improve network performance in centralized wireless networks; surveys green networking strategies from a quantitative perspective; suggests a strategic vision for possible developments of network technology for the future Internet. INDICE: Introduction and Overview.Internet Development versus Networking Modes.Two-Level Source Routing (TLSR) for All-Optical Packet Switching.Networking with TLSR.Differentiated Queueing Service (DQS) for Granular QoS.Cost Modelfor Granular End-to-End QoS with DQS.Quantitative End-to-End Arguments: Performance Analysis.Quantitative End-to-End Arguments: Complexity Estimation.Numerical Discussion of Quantitative End-to-End Arguments.Decoupling Congestion Control from TCP: Semi-TCP.Enabling Simultaneous MAC Transmission with MIMO: Logical MIMO.Numerical Evaluation of MAC Schemes Based on Physical and Logical MIMO.To Be Continued.
