In this paper, we address the issue of traffic grooming in arbitrary WDM mesh networks. We present a novel groomer architecture wherein a combination of grooming at two different ...
In this paper we address the problem of constrained optimization (ILP formulation) and propose a set of heuristic algorithms for assigning light-trails [1–4,7,10] to WDM ring ne...
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 ...
— Recent advances in telecommunication networks have allowed WDM to emerge as a viable solution to the ever-increasing demands of the Internet. Because these networks carry large...
