— As wavelength-division multiplexing (WDM) evolves towards practical applications in optical transport networks, waveband switching (WBS) has been introduced to cut down the ope...
We present three dynamic routing and wavelength assignment (RWA) algorithms that are intended for multifiber WDM networks without wavelength converters. For networks with a large n...
Routing and wavelength assignment (RWA) aims to assign the limited number of wavelengths in a wavelength-division multiplexed (WDM) optical network so as to achieve greater capacit...
An efficient and general graph-theoretic model (the Wavelength-Graph (WG)) has been proposed which enables solving the static Routing and Wavelength Assignment (RWA) problems in Mu...
—For a large-scale mesh network with dynamic traffic, maintaining the global state information in a centralized fashion is impractical. Hence, distributed schemes are needed to ...
