Abstract—It is expected that GMPLS-based recovery could become a viable option for obtaining faster restoration than layer 3 rerouting. Even though dedicated restoration ensures ...
The generalized multiprotocol label switching (GMPLS) networks attain a hierarchical structure, and each layer maintains an independent protection mechanism, resulting in redundant...
We propose hierarchically distributed path computation elements (HDPCEs) that manage a multilayered GMPLS network and provide traffic engineering paths for end-to-end routes. We ap...
This paper focuses on the protection of virtual circuits (Label Switched Paths, LSPs) in a (G)MPLS (Generalised Multi-Protocol Label Switching) network. The proposed algorithm is ...
This paper investigates the problem of survivable traffic grooming (STG) in shared mesh optical networks and proposes different frameworks for improving the survivability of low s...
