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...
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 ...
— As wavelength-division multiplexing (WDM) evolves towards practical applications in optical transport networks, waveband switching (WBS) has been introduced to cut down the ope...
Abstract. We study computationally hard combinatorial problems arising from the important engineering question of how to maximize the number of connections that can be simultaneous...
