Networks of workstations (NOWs) provide an economical platform for high performance parallel computing. Such networks may comprise a variety of different types of workstations and network devices. This paper addresses the problem of efficient multicast in a heterogeneous communication model. Althoug

In this paper, we describe a framework for exploring various multiplexing approaches in optical networks and for evaluating their cost-effectiveness. A comparative study of two representative approaches, known as path multiplexing (PM) and link multiplexing (LM) [1,2], is conducted with respect to o
## Abstract In wavelength division multiplexing (WDM) star networks, the construction of the transmission schedule is a key issue, which essentially affects the network performance. Up to now, classic scheduling techniques consider the nodes' requests in a sequential service order. However, these a
