Abstract:In this article, we effectively handle the continuously growing traffic within data centers (DCs) and we focus on the intra-rack communication. We propose a passive optical intra-rack DC network (DCN) that uses a set of wavelengths for the data intra-rack communication and a separate control wavelength for pre-transmission coordination. We introduce a distributed access control scheme, named intra-rack wavelengths arrangement and bandwidth allocation (i-WABA) protocol, to effectively arrange the data wavelengt… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
