Title: Enhancing Fault Tolerance Capabilities in Quorum-based Cycle Routing
Speaker: Cory Kleinheksel, ECpE Graduate Student
Advisor: Arun Somani, Sproul Distinguished Professor, Associate Dean for Research
Abstract: In this talk, we propose a generalized R redundancy cycle technique that provides optical networks almost fault-tolerant communications. More importantly, when applied using only single cycles rather than the standard paired cycles, the generalized R redundancy technique is shown to almost halve the necessary light-trail resources in the network while maintaining the fault-tolerance and dependability expected from cycle-based routing.
