We consider all-optical networks with shortest-path routing that use wavelength-division multiplexing and employ wavelength conversion at specific nodes in order to maximize their...
This paper presents a novel Grid network scenario based on an optical infrastructure using optical burst switching. The functional blocks required are identified as Core Router th...

Abstract-- In WDM all-optical networks where electrical regeneration is not available, physical impairments due to propagation in the fibers, amplifier noise, and leaks between cha...
— We study wavelength assignment for lightpaths over WDM rings to minimize the SONET ADMs used. This problem has attracted much attention recently. However, its computation compl...
— Wavelength routed optical networks allow to design a logical topology, comprising lightpaths and routers, which is overlayed on the physical topology, comprising optical fiber...
