Delay distributed VCAT for efficient data-optical transport

We introduce a novel scheme that flexibly distributes the differential delays in virtual concatenation (VCAT) paths in SONET/SDH networks. We show that this increases the utilization of the network in carrying dynamic traffic and reduces the total buffer requirements.
