Description

Covering both sophisticated traffic control equipment and advanced hardware technologies, High-Performance Backbone Network Technology:

Describes scalable virtual path (VP) network design methods in carrier backbone networks including VP restoration

Presents QoS control and failure-resistant transport studies for new multimedia services such as voice, image, and TV program transmission

Introduces a scalable, private network node interface interworking architecture; a high-capacity switching scheme for IP/ATM/WDM networks; an innovative distributed traffic control scheme for a large multistage packet switching system; and architectures and devices for photonic and advanced technologies

Analyzes performance studies on IP-over-ATM wide-area and access networks

Considers the control of higher-layer traffic flows, as well as support for real-time and multimedia applications emerging in IP-based backbone network systems

Offers a novel concept for an optical label switching network and details the configuration and function of the core nodes

Presents a large scalable photonic network architecture and its system design for next-generation IP centric backbone networks

Compiling the most influential papers from the IEICE Transactions in Communications, High-Performance Backbone Network Technology examines critical breakthroughs in the design and provision of effective public service networks in areas including traffic control, telephone service, real-time video transfer, voice and image transmission for a content delivery network (CDN), and Internet access. The contributors explore system structures, experimental prototypes, and field trials that herald the development of new IP networks that offer quality-of-service (QoS), as well as enhanced security, reliability, and function.

Offers many hints and guidelines for future research in IP and photonic backbone network technologies
