The ICT and network services economy has exhibited large growth rates with global IP traffic expected to reach 64 exabytes per month in 2014. In addition to operational challenges in managing this traffic load, it is widely recognized that new energy saving approaches will be critical to the ICT sector for sustaining growth. In this paper, we use the optical bypass technique - which is a novel network...
Failure recovery in IP networks is critical to high-quality service provisioning. In IP over wavelength division multiplexing (WDM) networks, a fiber carries multiple IP logical links. When a fiber fails, all the logical links it carries are disconnected simultaneously. This is called a shared risk link group (SRLG) failure. Recovery from SRLG failures using route recalculation could lead to long...
We estimate potential energy savings in IP-over-WDM networks achieved by switching off router line cards in low-demand hours. We compare three approaches to react on dynamics in the IP traffic over time, FUFL, DUFL and DUDL. They provide different levels of freedom in adjusting the routing of lightpaths in the WDM layer and the routing of demands in the IP layer. Using MILP models based on realistic...
In IP-over-WDM networks, wavelength circuits are often protected by dedicated backup circuits. Especially with future deployment of 100 G transmission systems, there will be huge under-utilization of backup resources. Network utilization can be boosted by loaning the idle backup circuits to preemptible IP/packet services. In the event of a failure, IP traffic can be pre-empted and wavelength backup...
