Abstract-- Security issues and attack management in transparent WDM (Wavelength Division Multiplexing) optical networks has become of prime importance to network operators due to t...
— Rerouting is a viable and cost-effective approach to decrease the blocking probability in legacy circuit-switched networks. We study lightpath rerouting in optical WDM networks...
A network with restoration capability requires spare capacity to be used in the case of failure. Optimization of spare capacity is to find the minimum amount of spare capacity for ...
We consider the routing for a special type of communication requests, called a multicast, consisting of a fixed source and a multiset of destinations in a wavelength division mult...
SONET add-drop multiplexers (ADMs) are the dominant cost factor in SONET /WDM rings. The number of SONET ADMs required by a set of traffic streams is determined by the routing and...
