This paper develops a framework to support multiple protection strategies in optical networks, which is in general applicable to any connection-oriented network. The capacity avail...
— This paper investigates the path protection problem in mesh networks under multiple generic risks. Disjoint logical links may fail simultaneously if they share the same compone...
Failure resilience is a desired feature of the Internet. Most traditional restoration architectures assume single-failure assumption, which is not adequate in present day WDM opti...
Abstract--As the Internet evolves into a ubiquitous communication infrastructure and supports increasingly important services, its dependability in the presence of various failures...
—We develop diverse routing schemes for dealing with multiple, possibly correlated, failures. While disjoint path protection can effectively deal with isolated single link failur...
