DPillar has recently been proposed as a server-centric data centre network and is combinatorially related to the well-known wrapped butterfly network. We explain the relationship between DPillar and the wrapped butterfly network before proving a symmetry property of DPillar. We use this symmetry property to establish a single-path routing algorithm for DPillar that computes a shortest path and has time complexity O(k log(n)), where k parameterizes the dimension of DPillar and n the number of ports in its switches. Moreover, our algorithm is trivial to implement, being essentially a conditional clause of numeric tests, and improves significantly upon a routing algorithm earlier employed for DPillar. A secondary and important effect of our work is that it emphasises that data centre networks are amenable to a closer combinatorial scrutiny that can significantly improve their computational efficiency and performance.

Optical burst switching (OBS) is considered as one of the most potential technology for implementation of transparent optical Internet in near future. In this paper we propose an integrated scheme for loss reduction and efficient resource utilization in OBS. We develop a framework for computation of estimated space-time loss surface in space-time plane for a burst over the network and utilise it to determine the most appropriate route and corresponding offset-time for the burst. The integrated routing and offset-time adaptation scheme proposed here, can simultaneously offer significantly lower burst loss rate and higher network-wide resource utilisation.

Conventional elastic optical networking, EON, uses elasticity in two domains, time and frequency, to optimize utilization of optical network resources in the presence of fluctuating traffic demand and link quality. Currently, networking exploiting a third domain, space, is the focus of significant research efforts since space-division multiplexing, SDM, has the potential to substantially improve future network capacity and spectral efficiency. This article extends 2D-EON to include elasticity in all three domains: time, frequency, and space. We introduce enabling technologies, architectures, and algorithms for 3D-EONs. Based on sample network topologies, we investigate algorithms for routing, spectrum, spatial mode, and modulation format assignment - RSSMA. In particular, we investigate fragmentation-aware RSSMA and how the constraints in the formation of super-channels in MIMO-based SDM systems can impact the network performance in terms of blocking probability.

Spectrum-sliced elastic optical path networks (SLICE) can maximize spectral resource utilization by using a fine granular spectrum range unit, called frequency slot, and allowing that multiple slots be assigned to lightpaths. The routing and Spectrum Assignment (RSA) algorithm has a direct influence on the spectral resource utilization. We propose in this paper a novel routing algorithm, referred to as Spectrum Continuity based Shortest Path (SCSP). The SCSP finds a route with the lowest cost based on information of the link length and spectrum continuity. In all simulations, some effects of physical layer are considering as ASE noise, optical amplifier gain and ASE saturation in the amplifiers. The modulation formats are selected during the RSA process to optimize the spectrum resource utilization. We compared the performance of our proposal through simulation with the Shortest Path (SP) and Minimum Hop (MH) routing algorithms for three different network topologies.

Wireless community networks (WCNs) have emerged as a cost-effective ubiquitous broadband connectivity solution, offering a wide range of services in a given geographical area. QoS-aware multicast over WCNs is among the most challenging issues and has attracted a lot of attention in recent times. The existing multicast schemes in WCNs suffer in terms of several key performance metrics, such as, latency, jitter and throughput, particularly in large-scale networks. Consequently, these schemes cannot accommodate the desired performance levels, especially when dealing with high-bandwidth applications that require efficient gateway-based management. To fill in this gap, a new strategy for supporting QoS-aware multicast in large-scale WCNs is proposed in this paper. Specifically, a new Gateway based Multi-hop routing algorithm (GMR) is firstly proposed to enhance the routing management capability of the network. Built upon GMR, a new Multicast Gateway Multi-hop routing algorithm (MGMR) is devised to cope with high-bandwidth applications in WCNs. The MGMR is the first of its kind that considers both the capability of gateway-based management and the requirements of high-bandwidth applications. Extensive simulation experiments and performance results demonstrate the superiority of both GMR and MGMR when compared to other methods under various operating conditions.

Maximum throughput serves as a fundamental metric for evaluating the performance of mobile ad hoc networks. However, the actual maximum throughput still remains significantly unknown in such networks. This paper studies the actual maximum throughput of mobile ad hoc networks under a general routing scheme with reed-solomon coding, where a source node first encodes a group of g packets into w (w >= g) code blocks, and then these code blocks are transmitted to distinct relay nodes, which forward them to destination node. The original g packets can be decoded once the destination node receives any g code blocks. To explore the actual maximum throughput, we first establish two Markov chain models to capture the fastest packet sending and receiving processes at source and destination nodes under the considered routing scheme. Based on the Markov chain models, we then derive a closed-form expression for the maximum throughput in such networks. Finally, extensive simulations and theoretical results are presented to validate the accuracy of our theoretical maximum throughput analysis in mobile ad hoc networks and to illustrate how network parameters influence the maximum throughput performance.

Node mobility and end-to-end disconnections in Delay Tolerant Networks (DTNs) greatly weaken the effectiveness of data transmission. Although social-based strategies can be used to deal with the problem, most existing approaches adopt multi-copy strategy to forward messages which inevitably add more unnecessary cost. One of the most important issues is the selection of the best intermediate node to forward messages to the destination node. In this paper, we focus on finding a quality metric associated with better relays which is evaluated by Reachable Probability Centrality (RPC) as we proposed. RPC combines the contact matrix and multi-hop forwarding probability based on the weighted social network, thus ensuring an effective relay selection. We also propose a distributed RPC-based routing algorithm, which demonstrates the applicability of our scheme in the decentralized environment of DTNs. Extensive trace-driven simulations show that RPC outperforms other centrality measures and our proposed routing algorithm can significantly reduce the data forwarding cost while having comparable delivery ratio and delay to those of the Epidemic routing.
