abstract = {This paper provides a scalable framework for
analysis and performance evaluation of optical burst-switching (OBS) networks.
In particular, a new reduced load fixed point approximation model to evaluate
blocking probabilities in OBS networks is introduced. The model is versatile
enough to cover known OBS reservation policies such as just-enough-time,
just-in-time, burst segmentation, and route-dependent priorities. The accuracy
of the model is confirmed by simulation and the various policies are compared.}
