| Abstract | In this paper, we study the impacts of traffic allocations on the performance of optical packet switches (OPS). In particular, two different cases are investigated where traffic loads are distributed over different (i) time slots (time dimension); and (ii) output ports (space dimension), respectively. These two cases are of significant importance as each has different applications and they form the basis of some more complicated schemes. Our main contributions are three fold. Firstly, for the most fundamental OPS configuration, we prove that its packet loss is a convex function of traffic load. For any other node configuration, we prove that its packet loss remains as a convex function of traffic load as long as a simple condition is satisfied. Secondly, for any OPS with its packet loss as a convex function of traffic load, we propose a simple algorithm for efficiently comparing some different traffic allocations and telling which one of them leads to the lowest packet loss. We also show that in either time or space dimension, the best packet-loss performance is achieved when traffic loads are uniformly distributed. Thirdly, for OPS with limited capability of adjusting a given traffic distribution, we propose a Load Balancing (LB) algorithm to minimize the packet loss. These contributions provide some useful guidelines and algorithms for achieving efficient traffic allocations in various OPS networks. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
