This paper proposes a novel buffer scheduling algorithm, which considers offset time for burst control packet in optical burst switching (OBS) WDM networks. In the proposed algorithm, a burst control packet (BCP) with short residual offset time is served by the scheduler prior to a BCP with long residual offset time. Our proposed scheme can decrease the data loss due to early arrival problem of the data burst in OBS networks. Finally, we evaluate the performance improvement through the simulation.
