In this paper, we study how to, given a set of pre-routed requests in an all-optical network and a set of wavelengths available on each link, assign a subset of requests with maxim...
—The prospects of Optical Burst Switching (OBS) as a cost-effective switching paradigm for future all-optical transport networks would greatly benefit from minimizing the number ...
Abstract— Wavelength converters simplify the wavelength assignment problem in virtual topology design in optical networks and increase the utilization of the fiber bandwidth. Ho...
— We study wavelength assignment for lightpaths over WDM rings to minimize the SONET ADMs used. This problem has attracted much attention recently. However, its computation compl...
W e study a class of all-optical networks using wavelength division multiplexing and wavelength routing in which a connection between a pair of nodes in the network is assigned a ...
