Path Decomposition Under a New Cost Measure with Applications to Optical Network Design
We introduce a problem directly inspired by its application to DWDM (dense wavelength division multiplexing) network design. We are given a set of demands to be carried over a netw...

Policy-Based Fault Management for Integrating IP over Optical Networks
Abstract. In this paper we present a policy-based architecture for aggregating (grooming) IP/MPLS flows (packet-based LSPs) within lightpaths taking into account the possibility o...
