Hybrid networks are networks capable of switching data at multiple levels (optical and IP packet level) by means of multi-service optical switches. As a result of that, huge flows...
In the minimum path coloring problem, we are given a graph and a set of pairs of vertices of the graph and we are asked to connect the pairs by colored paths in such a way that pa...
Abstract—Routing with service restorability is of much importance in Multi-Protocol Label Switched (MPLS) networks, and is a necessity in optical networks. For restoration, each ...
— To increase the availability of Free Space Network (FSO) networks, the optical link is provided with a redundant backup network, such as RF, to form a hybrid network. The immed...
