In this paper, we address the routing and wavelength assignment problem for the core-based tree (CBT) service in a wavelength-division-multiplexing (WDM) network, where k sources ...
In this paper, we study how to, given a set of pre-routed requests in an all-optical network and a set of wavelengths available on each link, assign a subset of requests with maxim...
With standard assumptions the routing and wavelength assignment problem (RWA) can be viewed as a Markov Decision Process (MDP). The problem, however, defies an exact solution bec...
Abstract. We study an extension of the set cover problem, the connected set cover problem, the problem is to find a set cover of minimal size that satisfies some connectivity con...
Abstract— Wavelength converters simplify the wavelength assignment problem in virtual topology design in optical networks and increase the utilization of the fiber bandwidth. Ho...
—In the paper, we study the wavelength assignment problem in waveband switching (WBS) networks, which is composed of multi-granular optical cross-connect (MG-OXCs) interconnected...
In this paper we present a hybrid model for the demand acceptance variant of the routing and wavelength assignment problem in directed networks, an important benchmark problem in o...
