Abstract

This paper addresses the problem of quality of service management in optical packet switching over DWDM. Asynchronous, variable length packets are considered and algorithms able to offer congestion resolution and quality of service differentiation are presented, with reference to both connectionless and connection oriented network scenarios. The paper aims at showing that it is possible to guarantee differentiation of the quality of service among trafic classes, with very little buffering requirements.
