Abstract— This paper studies the problem of designing survivable optical wavelength division multiplexed (WDM) networks. A wavelength-routed wide area backbone network supporting...
We study the problem of designing a survivable WDM network based on covering the communication requests with subnetworks that are protected independently from each other. We consi...
—We present a multi-constrained routing algorithm, called Delay-constrained Pool Sharing (DPS), in a survivable mesh network. The goal of this algorithm is to find a pair of link...
—We introduce a novel protection scheme, called Cooperative Fast Protection (CFP), to fight against a single link failure in survivable WDM (Wavelength Division Multiplexing) mes...
—This paper presents a scheme in which a dedicated backup network is designed to provide protection from random link failures. Upon a link failure in the primary network, traffi...
