Abstract

Since the advent of the World Wide Web, the Internet has experienced tremendous growth. Everyday, more and more people turn to the Internet for their information, communication and entertainment needs. New types of applications and services such as web browsing, video conferencing, interactive online gaming, and peer-to-peer file sharing continue to be created to satisfy these needs. They demand increasingly higher transmission capacity from the networks. This rapid expansion of the Internet will seriously test the limits of current computer and telecommunication networks. There is an immediate need for new high-capacity networks that are capable of supporting these growing bandwidth requirements.
