Traffic grooming continues to be a rich area of research in the context of WDM optical networks. We provide an overview of the optical and electronic grooming techniques available...
The problem of grooming is central in studies of optical networks. In graph-theoretic terms, it can be viewed as assigning colors to given paths in a graph, so that at most g (the ...
Minimizing the number of add-drop multiplexers (ADMs) in a unidirectional SONET ring can be formulated as a graph decomposition problem. When traffic requirements are uniform and ...
