—Optical burst switching (OBS) technology is a promising solution for the next generation Internet backbone. However, call admission control (CAC) and QoS support constitute crit...
—In hybrid Optical/packet networks, wavelength and VLAN tag continuity along a Label Switched Path are two common constraints. These two types of constraints, referred to as Gene...
Abstract. The dense wavelength division multiplexing (DWDM) technique has been developed to provide a tremendous number of wavelengths/channels in an optical fiber. In the multi-c...
Abstract-- Optical Networks with wavelength routing are expected to form the backbone in the next generation wide area networks. The traffic grooming problem in optical networks is...
— In WDM optical networks connection requests can be classified into three different types: Permanent Lightpath Demands (PLDs), Scheduled Lightpath Demands (SLDs), and Random Li...
