wireless data center networks
Data center networks (DCNs) are essential infrastructures to embrace the era of the highly diversified massive amount of data generated by emerging technological applications. In order to store and process such a data deluge, today’s DCNs have to deploy enormous length of wires to interconnect a plethora of servers and switches. Unfortunately, wired DCNs exposes several drawbacks such as cabling cost and complexity, low space utilization due to the cable bundles, and insufficiency to overcome chronic oversubscription and hotspot problems.
