Abstract
In this paper, we present the performance analysis of Just-In-Time Optical Burst Switching (JIT-OBS) under realistic web traffic. We demonstrate and explain the impact of Burst Aggregation Time (BAT) on performance under the short-lived TCP flows model. We consider both data and control planes. Our results show that BAT has an impact on TCP performance through packet losses and packet delay in the data plane. The results also show that the network has an optimal point of operation dependence upon BAT. We also incorporate BAT's impact on the control plane's congestion.
