With new optical transport systems able to provide sub-wavelength granularity, the dynamic characteristics of the network are expected to strongly increase. Furthermore, such properties are highly related to the underlying physical network topology, which in turn require from the control plane important features such as scalability, dynamism and automatism. In this paper we analyze the properties...
In this paper, we propose a deterministic greedy heuristic providing a construction layout for a cost-efficient multi-layer network that is able to carry a given set of traffic demands with and without protection on different layers. We apply the heuristic to different reference network topologies and protection requirements. Evaluations are conducted regarding equipment cost on different layers,...
Since its emergence the internet has been a significant part of today's modern living. Defined by its interconnections and routing policies, it has fuelled increased demands for provisioning of new more advanced services that are able to dynamically react to changes within the network. These services however, lead to enormous energy consumption in contrast to a global drive for a greener environment...
We propose an improved postponed lightpath teardown (PLT) strategy by introducing a lightpath splitting mechanism in multi-layer optical networks. Results show that the proposed strategy achieves higher utilizations of both wavelength-links and transceivers under different scenarios of load and transceiver number, and significantly reduce the blocking probability (CBP).
This paper proposes a new survivable algorithm named sub-path protection based on auxiliary virtual topology (SPAVT) to tolerate the single-link failure in WDM optical networks. According to the protection-switching time constraint, SPAVT constructs the virtual topology. Then, it only needs to run one time of routing algorithm to find the feasible virtual route in virtual topology. Simulation results...
