— This paper presents an investment strategy to reduce the risk associated with failures in Wavelength Division Multiplexing (WDM) optical networks. The investment strategy deter...
In the emerging next-generation transport networks, called intelligent optical transport networks, DWDM-based optical components like add-drop multiplexers and optical cross conne...
Survivability becomes increasingly critical in managing high-speed networks as data traffic continues to grow in both size and importance. In addition, the impact of failures is e...
Abstract--As the Internet evolves into a ubiquitous communication infrastructure and supports increasingly important services, its dependability in the presence of various failures...
—We introduce a novel protection scheme, called Cooperative Fast Protection (CFP), to fight against a single link failure in survivable WDM (Wavelength Division Multiplexing) mes...
