In IP over WDM networks, since there is a large bandwidth gap between a wavelength
capacity and the actual bandwidth required by each user, it is necessary to multiplex low …

One of the major problems facing optical networking is to intelligently assign physical
resources such as lightpaths and regenerators to connection requests, namely the …

Traffic grooming in wavelength division multiplexing (WDM) optical networks refers to
routing and aggregating low-rate client traffic onto wavelength granularity lightpaths. When …

Recent developments in optical communications have allowed simpler optical devices to
improve network resource utilization. As such, we propose adding a lambda-monitoring …

This paper investigates approaches for the traffic grooming problem that consider
connection holding-times and bandwidth availability. Moreover, solutions can indicate the …

Multiple node architectures are possible for WDM networks. These architectures strongly
condition the cost of optical network planning and traffic engineering. This paper aims first to …
