Resumen:
The paper focuses on the Metro (metropolitan area) network defined in the ISTEuropean project DAVID. The DAVID Metro network is based on sets of opticalrings interconnected by passive memoryless devices called Hubs. Ring accessis regulated by a dynamic time-division multiple-access scheme allocating fixedsize slots in sets of wavelengths that provide multi-channel pipes among ringpairs. Resource sharing among nodes is granted by a centralized schedulingalgorithm running at the Hub and by an empty-slot media access control protocolimplemented at the nodes. Node position along the ring has a significant impact onaccess opportunities; thus fairness issues become fundamental in this architecture.This paper proposes a new fairness enforcement algorithm for interconnectedmulti-channel rings and evaluates its performance by simulation.
