| Abstraksi Narasi | : | In wavelength-routed WDM networks, a control mechanism is required to sep up and take down all-optical connections. Upon the arrival of a connection request, this mechanism must be able to select a route, assign a wavelength to the connection, and configure the appropriate optical switches in the network. The mechanism must also be able to provide updates to reflect which wavelengths are currently being used on each link so that nodes may make informed routing decisions. In this work, we review control mechanisms proposed in the literature. We also investigate and compare two different distributed control mechanisms for establishing all-optical connections in a wavelength-routed WDM network: an approach based on link-state routing, and one based on distance-vector routing. |

| Abstraksi Narasi | : | It is an exciting time for broadband fixed wireless with key developments in frequency bands from 1 to 60 GHz and a range of new technologies being developed. While working on these new technologies, it is easy to forget that fixed wireless access will form part of an integrated communications environment of the future where users will have one communications environment of the next 20 years and looks at the role of fixed access within that environment. This involves assessing how fixed access systems will interface and integrate with in-home wireless networks, how their architecture will enable multiservice operations to utilize the same core network across a range of different access technologies, and how they will act as a channel to carry mobile traffic originating within the building. Based on the requirements this enable multiservice operators to utilize the same core network across a range of different access technologies, and how they will act as a channel to carry mobile traffic originating within the building. Based on the requirements this vision and architecture implies, this article critically assesses the different fixed wireless technologies available to date and compares their capabilities to provide future-proof broadband fixed wireless platforms. |

| Abstraksi Narasi | : | In this article we investigate the capacity of LMDS to support ATM services in the local loop. In particular, we evaluate the performance of a MAC protocol for this system when transporting voice and IP traffic using the VBR and GFR service categories of ATM, respectively. Our results show that the MAC protocol is well suited for voice traffic but in general lacks efficient bandwidth management mechanisms to support the more dynamic bandwidth requirements of IP traffic. |

| Abstraksi Narasi | : | In this millennium, the most valuable commodity will be information, as seen by the surge in demand for faster access technologies such as cable modems, xDSL, and wireless data. The tremendous growth in data traffic, particularly that associated with the Internet, is changing the way it is carried over public and private networks. Together with the rapid advances in optical networking technology and the spawning of a new category of wavelength services stimulated by new high-speed data requirements, this is dramatically changing network architectures and the relationship between network service providers and their customers. Incumbent carrier globalization and new carrier entry require support for a broader set of business models and range of service interfaces. The growth and expansion of networks imply a greater need for more scalable solutions and more automation for network maintenance. An intellegent optical core optimized for service optical networking, the services optical network, needs for to take the best aspects of both the transport and data networking domains to meet the above needs. This article focuses on architecting the services optical network to meet the challenges of optical data networking, and includes a snapshot of supporting standardization activities. |

| Abstraksi Narasi | : | The distinction between switched-services-based and leased line services is beginning to disappear. Many network operators and suppliers are developing control plane technology for application in transport networks. This will allow faster service provisioning, particularly between network operators, and the creation of new network services. However, such systems will still require comprehensive management systems, and successful operators and vendors of the future will be those that are capable of developing operational support systems that complement the control plane with service management capabilities, automated plan and build processes, inventory management, and capacity planning. This article examines the distribution of functionality between the management and control planes for support of soft permanent and switched connections. |

| Abstraksi Narasi | : | This article presents a survey of architectures, techniques, and algorithms for multicasting data in communication switching networks. We start with a broadcast architecture using a separate copy network and a routing network. A few versions of this idea using Delta and Benes networks exist. Another multicast architecture is a recycling network where internal nodes act as relay points, accept packets from the switching fabric, and recycle them back into the fabric after relabeling the packets. Next, we give an overview of a system that uses the Boolean splitting multicast algoritms. In this system a nonblocking self-routing broadcast Banyan copy network has been proposed. The network consists of several components including a running adder network to generate running sums of copy numbers specified in the headers of input packets. We then describe a multicasting technique presented for a different class of switching networks called deflection-routing networks. Finaly, the idea of extending a nonblocking network to a three-dimensional structure consisting of multiple parallel planes is also presented. At the end of this article, we compare the efficiencies of the presented multicast architectures. |

| Abstraksi Narasi | : | In this article we report design and implementation scenarios for a gigabit-capacity and high-data-rate fixed wireless access technology demonstrator. The system is based on a broadband wireless access concept and implementation techniques utilizing millimeter-wave and newly introduced free-space optical wireless high-speed links. The demonstration platform is to provide broadband "last mile" access and networking solutions to Internet users in densely populated areas with homes and businesses (e.g., building-centric and inner city environments) in need of high bandwidth not served by fiber infrastructure. The investigation focuses on the radio link design, network architecture, system integration, and compatible interface to the existing ATM fiber and satellite core networks in support of the next-generation Internet (NGI) reach network extension by the wireless technology. |

| Abstraksi Narasi | : | The recent emergence of wavelength-division multiplexing technology has led to a tremendous increase in the available transmission capacity in wide area networks. Consequently, these networks may no longer be limited by transmission bandwidth, but rather by the processing capability of electronic switches, routers, and multiplexers in the network. This realization has led to a new wave of research aimed at overcoming the electronic bottleneck by providing optical bypass at the WDM layer. Traffic grooming can be used as a bypass mechanism by which low-rate circuits are assigned to wavelengths in order to minimize the amount of electronic multiplexing equipment. Recently, this topic has received a significant amount of attention in both the research and commercial arenas. In this article we give an overview of the traffic grooming problem and survey some representative work in this area. While most recent work has focused on grooming in SONET rings, grooming traffic in general mesh networks is an important emerging problem. |

| Abstraksi Narasi | : | We present a high-level overview of the current state of the network architectures, protocols, and technologies that will serve as the seed for the optical Internet. We further propose that a two-way ripple effect of technologies penetrating from the edge to the core and vice versa, and the associated transformations that result, represent the keys to unlock the full potential of an optical Internet. |
