Abstract— In this paper we consider the problem of provisioning spare capacity in two-layer backbone networks using shared backup path protection. First, two spare capacity alloc...
This paper presents a genetic algorithm based method to solve the capacity and routing assignment problem arising in the design of selfhealing networks using the Virtual Path (VP)...
— There is a growing interest among service providers to offer new services with Quality of Service (QoS) guaranties that are also resilient to failures. Supporting QoS connectio...
