Abstract
A bandwidth efficient way to cope with the highly bursty traffic of the Internet is to resort to on-demand fast reservation of optical circuits (or lightpaths). Taking into consideration the data burst size, signaling dynamics and network latency, the paper compares performance of centralized versus distributed reservation mechanisms for WDM ring.
