— In all-optical networks that use WDM technology it is often the case that several communication requests have to be blocked, due to bandwidth and technology limitations. Minimi...
Let G be a undirected connected graph. Given a set of g groups each being a subset of V (G), tree routing and coloring is to produce g trees in G and assign a color to each of them...
In this paper, we propose a new protection scheme, which we term partial path protection (PPP), to select endto-end backup paths using local information about network failures. PP...
Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) has been recently proposed as a modulation technique for optical networks, due to its good spectral efficiency and impairment tole...

— We present a review of the various integer linear programming (ILP) formulations that have been proposed for the routing and wavelength assignment problem in WDM optical networ...
