– Optical burst switching (OBS) is a promising technique for next-generation optical switching networks. In traditional OBS, an entire burst is discarded when all output waveleng...
In reservation-based packet scheduling algorithms for single-hop WDM networks, one of the wavelengths is used as a control channel which is shared by all of the nodes for transmit...
—We consider the offline version of the routing and wavelength assignment (RWA) problem in transparent all-optical networks. In such networks and in the absence of regenerators, ...
—Today, most routing problems are solved using Dijkstra’s shortest path algorithm. Many efficient implementations of Dijkstra’s algorithm exist and can handle large networks ...
We consider the problem of minimizing the number of ADMs in optical networks. All previous theoretical studies of this problem dealt with the off-line case, where all the lightpat...
