Writing a thesis is done by a single person: the one who graduates. However, doing research and gaining knowledge can not be done without the help of other people. Writing a protocol, aimed to be an...
A Multi-Layer Network Model Based on ITU-T G.805 (2008)
Freek Dijkstra, Bert Andree, Karst Koymans, Cees De Laat
In recent years, dynamic multi-layer networks have emerged. Unlike the regular networks, these multilayer networks allow users and other networks to interface on different technology layers. While...
Semantic Models for Optical Hybrid Networks – Lightpaths Across Domain Boundaries (2008)
Paola Grosso, Freek Dijkstra, Cees De Laat
Abstract: Lightpaths are dedicated network connections in optical networks that provide guaranteed services to e-Science applications. When these paths extend beyond organizational boundaries the...

Using Zero Configuration Technology for IP addressing in (2008)
Optical Networks Freek, Freek Dijkstra, Cees De Laat
Host configuration in optical networks is usually done by hand. In this paper we propose to use zero configuration techniques, including self-assigned IP addresses and multicast DNS to do this...
Path Finding Using the Multi-Layer Network Description Language (2007)
Freek Dijkstra, Paola Grosso, Cees De Laat
Overview Research networks are providing their users with dedicated network connections. Users want these connects to go through different domains, so the research networks are challenged to find...
A Terminology for Control Models at Optical Exchanges (2007)
Freek Dijkstra, Bas Van Oudenaarde, Bert Andree, Leon Gommans, Paola Grosso
Optical or lambda exchanges have emerged to interconnect networks, providing dynamic switching capabilities on OSI layer 1 and layer 2. So far, the only inter-domain dynamics have occurred on layer...
Using Zero Configuration Technology for IP addressing in Optical Networks (2006)
Host configuration in optical networks is usually done by hand. In this paper we propose to use zero configuration techniques, including self-assigned IP addresses and multicast DNS to do this...
Robert L. Grossman, Yunhong Gu And Xinwei, Yunhong Gu, Xinwei Hong, Antony Antony, Johan Blom, ...
We describe a UDP based application level transport protocol, named UDT (UDP based Data Transfer) that is designed for high performance networking and computing. It is fast, fair, and friendly. UDT...
Peering of network traffic is often concentrated at Internet Exchange Points. Current Internet Exchanges offer services at layer 2 and layer 3. There is a growing need for transport services where...

A new look at Ethernet: Experiences from 10 Gigabit (2003)
Antony Antony, Johan Blom, Freek Dijkstra, Cees Laat
We had a unique opportunity to build and evaluate the first Trans-European network using 10 Gbps Ethernet WAN PHY technology. Ethernet frames were transported over the SONET and DWDM infrastructure....
