The evolution of generational networks has stimulated the growth of delay-sensitive traffic,
destabilizing the already incapacitated existing network infrastructure. Due to time …

With the development of the Internet and the rise of multicast, enabling multicast in a space
division multiplexing elastic optical network (SDM-EON) is considered highly necessary …

Energy consumption efficiency during resource allocation is crucial for large scale networks.
The evolution of space division multiplexing elastic optical networks (SDM-EONs) has …

A fine-grained flexible frequency grid for elastic optical transmission and space division
multiplexing in conjunction with spectrally efficient modulations is an excellent solution to the …

Elastic optical networks (EON) technology in combination with space division multiplexing
(SDM) is considered as having the potential to expand the transmission capacity of optical …

The transmission capacity of traditional single core fibers is reaching its upper bound. Space-
division multiplexing (SDM) leveraging multi-core fibers is considered to be a promising …

Recently, optical orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing technology has attracted
intensive research interest because spectrum-sliced elastic optical networks (EONs) can be …

In this paper, we study the service provisioning schemes for dynamic advance reservation
(AR) multicast requests in elastic optical networks (EONs). We first propose several …

The light-tree based multicast service aggregation (LT-MSA) scheme provides a cost-
efficient method to accommodate a large number of finer-grained multicast services in …

The Space Division Multiplexed-Elastic Optical Network (SDM-EON) has many parallel
spatial channels, increasing the spectral capacity manifolds. The routing constraints in SDM …
