Geometric routing has been proposed in literature as a memory-efficient alternative to traditional lookup-based routing and forwarding algorithms. However, existing geometric routing schemes lack the ability to address network link and node failures in a natural way, while maintaining a low path stretch. The main contribution of this paper is a novel routing scheme called Greedy Forest Routing (GFR)...
With the expansion of optical networks, the failure probability of dual-link failure has also improved, so it is urgent to find novel protection structures to deal with dual-link failure. In this paper, we mainly focus the protection structures to solve the problem. Firstly, we describe the scenarios and the problem of dual-link failure. Then, theory of pre-configured polyhedron (p-Poly) is introduced...
The capacitated Fixed-Charge Network Design (FCND) problem deals with the simultaneous optimization of capacity installation and routing of traffic, where a fixed cost is paid for opening a link and a linear routing cost is paid for sending traffic flow on a link. The routing decision must be performed such that flows remain bounded by the installed capacities. This problem appears as a particular...
In data communication networks, connection availability, which is defined as the probability that the corresponding connection will be found in the operating state, is a key element of many Service Level Agreements (SLA). The path over which a connection is to be established should obey the agreed-upon availability, otherwise the service provider may face revenue loss as stipulated in the SLA. In...
This study is concerned with an original traffic restoration strategy for wide-area communication networks called Elastic Rerouting (ER). ER aims at alleviating the tradeoff between the network cost and traffic restoration complexity observed in existing solutions. We present the strategy, provide a mathematical formulation for the ER related optimization problem, and discuss an approach to its resolution...
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...
Elastic Optical Network (EON) is a promising technology proposed recently to provide flexible and multi-bitrate data transmission in the optical layer. EONs utilize various modulation format conversion and smaller spectrum granularity, what provide more efficient use of spectrum resources comparing to currently used fix-grid WDM networks. Concurrently, growing popularity of network services provided...
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...
The dependency of businesses and private applications on cloud solutions is increasing day by day. Still, many businesses are reluctant to adopt cloud solutions mainly due to reliability concerns. Service degradation or outages can be caused both due to the cloud domain and the communication network connecting the users to the cloud, which are operated mainly by different entities. Network virtualization...
To ensure the robust delivery of video streams, a network must emit additional data that will replace the missing ones in case of a failure of some server. One key issue is then to keep this so-called redundancy as low as possible while still ensuring some quality of service. In this paper, we provide protectionoriented models to compute the minimum level of redundancy ensuring that every customer...
In this work, the problem of provisioning survivable multicast connections in optical networks is investigated, under the assumption that not all network nodes are multicast capable (MC). A MC capable node is a node that can forward the incoming signal to multiple output ports. An integer linear programming (ILP) formulation is presented, as well as a heuristic algorithm to address the problem. Simulations...
In this paper, we have extended the GeoDivRP geodiverse routing protocol to consider jitter requirements when using multiple geographic paths for telecommunication networks under regional challenges. We have formulated bounded-jitter multipath routing using a multi-commodity flow problem and proposed an integer linear programming formulation to solve it. We have implemented the routing protocol in...
