Abstract
We present queueing formulations for trading nodal Storage Capacity (S C) with the incremental Transmission Capacity (TC) of links in supra-h igh-speed (i.e., > 10(8)/bps) packet-switched communication networks. The performance criterion used is the mean nodal forwarding time. The results are useful for designing all-optical packet-switching telecomm unication networks where the designer needs to compute the amount of I ncremental TC (ITC) needed to eliminate a specified number of nodal bu ffers (SC) while preserving the mean nodal forwarding time.
