Abstract
This paper presents a summary of Optical Burst Switching (OBS) research within the VI framework program e-Photon/ONe network of excellence. The paper includes network aspects such as routing techniques, resilience and contention resolution, together with burst switch architectures. On the other hand, we also discuss traffic analysis issues, Quality of Service (QoS) schemes, TCP/IP over OBS and physical layer aspects for OBS.
