Automated, rapid, and effective fault management is a central goal of large operational IP networks. Today's networks suffer from a wide and volatile set of failure modes, wh...

Link protection schemes for WDM-based optical networks have been extensively researched. Most work to date has ignored the physical layer impairments (PLIs) that could be dominant ...
Maˇnuch and Stacho [7] introduced the problem of designing f-tolerant routings in optical networks, i.e., routings which still satisfy the given requests even if f failures occur...
We address the issue of inapproximability of the wavelength assignment problem in wavelength division multiplexing (WDM) optical networks. We prove that in an n-node WDM optical ne...
Passive optical networks are a prominent broadband access solution to tackle the “last mile” bottleneck in telecommunications infrastructure. Data transmission over standardiz...
In studying the scalability of optical networks, one problem which arises involves coloring the vertices of the n-cube with as few colors as possible such that any two vertices wh...
The performance of packet-switching wavelength routed optical networks critically depends on packet contentions at the intermediate routers. This paper shows through simulations t...
One of the important issues in the design of future generation high-speed networks is to provide differentiated services to different types of applications with various time const...
Traffic grooming in optical networks has gained significance due to the prevailing sub-wavelength requirement of end users. Optical networks get upgraded to the latest technology s...
One of the major concerns in optical networks is the bandwidth underutilization problem. In fact, as WDM technology keeps maturing, there is a bandwidth gap between the transmissi...
