— As wavelength-division multiplexing (WDM) evolves towards practical applications in optical transport networks, waveband switching (WBS) has been introduced to cut down the ope...
The efficient use of network capacity in shared restoration schemes strongly depends upon the path selection procedure. In this paper we propose and evaluate path selection algorit...

Abstract—In [1], the author presented a 1+N protection strategy against single link failures using a network coding approach on p-Cycles. In this paper, we extend this approach t...
Abstract--Based on the false assumption that multicast incapable (MI) nodes could not be traversed twice on the same wavelength, the light-tree structure was always thought to be o...
In WDM networks, it is important to protect connections against link failures due to the high bandwidth provided by a fiber link. Although many p-cycle based schemes have been pro...
