Transparent elastic optical networks (EON) allow provisioning connections with different bandwidth requirements in an efficient way. To achieve the high spectrum efficiency under dynamic traffic scenario, fragmentation-aware Routing, Modulation and Spectrum Assignment (RMSA) decisions is essential. Since fiber cuts are common, resiliency against single-link failures is another important topic. This...
In this paper, we focus on a survivable elastic optical network (EON) that supports both unicast and anycast traffic demands. The network implements a dedicated path protection scheme (DPP), in which backup lightpaths are assigned to traffic demands so that to protect against single link failures. In a normal network state, each anycast demand is served by a specific data center (DC). However, we...
Recently, the Content Oriented Networking (CON) has become a recognized approach that is gaining extensive acceptance and deployment. At the same time, Elastic Optical Networks (EONs) are considered as a very promising approach for effective bandwidth allocation in optical networks. In this paper, we consider various approaches to content distribution in EON protected by the Dedicated Path Protection...
Understanding network behavior under challenges is essential to constructing a resilient and survivable network. Due to the mobility and wireless channel properties, it is more difficult to model and analyze MANETs (mobile ad hoc networks) under various challenges. Previously, we have modeled network attacks based on a priori complete knowledge of network structure and mobility. In this paper, we...
Our society nowadays is governed by complex networks, examples being the power grids, telecommunication networks, biological networks, and social networks. It has become of paramount importance to understand and characterize the dynamic events (e.g. failures) that might happen in these complex networks. For this reason, in this paper, we propose two measures to evaluate the vulnerability of complex...
Improving resilience against failures and targeted attacks is an important aspect of network design. The resilience and cost of networks are two opposing objectives in which a designer should consider when building networks. We develop a heuristic algorithm that balances the centrality of networks by adding a set of links that minimizes the variance of graph centrality measures in a least costly fashion...
