Design and Provisioning of WDM Networks for Many-to-Many Traffic Grooming
A large number of network applications today allow several users to interact together using the many-to-many service mode. A many-to-many session consists of group of users (we ref...

Multipoint-to-point lightpaths in all-optical networks: Dimensioning and cost analysis
One of the major concerns in optical networks is the bandwidth underutilization problem. In fact, as WDM technology keeps maturing, there is a bandwidth gap between the transmissi...

On Control Plane for Service Provisioning in Light-trail WDM Optical Ring Networks
: A light-trail is a generalized lightpath that enables multiple nodes to statistically share an optical communication path (wavelength bus). A light-trail is different from a ligh...

Quantifying the Benefit of Configurability in Circuit-Switched WDM Ring Networks
—In a reconfigurable network, lightpath connections can be dynamically changed to reflect changes in traffic conditions. This paper characterizes the gain in traffic capacity tha...
