We consider an optical routing problem. SONET add-drop multiplexers (ADMs) are the dominant cost factor in SONET /WDM rings. The number of SONET ADMs required by a set of traffic...

— We study wavelength assignment for lightpaths over WDM rings to minimize the SONET ADMs used. This problem has attracted much attention recently. However, its computation compl...
