Abstract
Optical burst switching (OBS) is one of the recently proposed optical switching techniques which probably received the greatest deal of attention (Chen et al., 2004). OBS may be viewed as a switching technique that combines the merits of optical circuit switching (OCS) and optical packet switching (OPS) while avoiding their respective shortcomings. The switching granularity at the burst rather than wavelength level allows for statistical multiplexing in OBS, which is not possible in OCS, while requiring a lower control overhead than OPS. More precisely, in OCS, the entire bandwidth of each lightpath is dedicated to one pair of source and destination nodes and unused bandwidth cannot be reclaimed by other nodes ready to send data. Thus, OCS does not allow for statistical multiplexing. On the other hand, in OCS networks no OEO conversion is needed at intermediate nodes. As a result, OCS networks provide all-optical circuits that are transparent in terms of bit rate, modulation scheme, and protocol. OCS is well suited for large data transmissions whose long connection holding time on the order of a few minutes, hours, days, weeks, or even months justify the involved twoway reservation overhead for setting up or releasing a lightpath, which may take a few hundred milliseconds. Since many applications require only subwavelength bandwidth and/or involve bursts that last only a few seconds or less, the coarse wavelength switching granularity of OCS becomes increasingly inefficient and impractical. Unlike OCS, OPS is able to provide a significant statistical multiplexing gain due to the fact that bandwidth is not dedicated to a single connection but may be shared by multiple data flows.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
