In this paper, we study a new concept of traffic grooming in wavelength-division multiplexing (WDM) ring networks that aims at eliminating both the bandwidth underutilization and ...
Recent advances in telecommunication networks have allowed WDM to emerge as a viable solution to the ever-increasing demands of the Internet. In a wavelength-routed optical network...
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...
Abstract--The traffic grooming problem is of high practical importance in emerging wide-area wavelength division multiplexing (WDM) optical networks, yet it is intractable for any ...
: With the increase of the number of wavelengths per fiber waveband switching has been proposed to decrease the number of switching ports in optical nodes. Another concept that of ...
