The routing and wavelength assignment (RWA) schemes play an important role in all
computer networks. The performance of a computer network and resource utilization largely …

To enhance the channel utilization in optical networks, this chapter introduces an end-to-end
traffic grooming mechanism. The end-to-end traffic grooming mechanism multiplexes the …

Traffic grooming in optical WDM mesh networks is a two-layer routing problem to effectively
pack low-rate connections onto high-rate lightpaths, which, in turn, are established on …

Traffic grooming in wavelength division multiplexing (WDM) optical networks routes and
consolidates sub-wavelength connections onto lightpaths, to improve network utilization and …

Traffic grooming in optical networks refers to consolidation of subwavelength client
connections onto lightpaths. Depending on whether client connections are given in advance …

Traffic grooming, which can efficiently multiplex many low-rate traffic streams into one
lightpath, has been a hot topic in the research community. Here adaptive routing and …

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

While a single fiber strand in wavelength division multiplexing (WDM) has over a terabit-per-
second bandwidth and a wavelength channel has over a gigabit-per-second transmission …

Traffic grooming has recently emerged as an important area in wide area wavelength-routed
optical networks research. This research area addresses the problem of multiplexing lower …

Traffic grooming in wavelength division multiplexing (WDM) optical networks studies
consolidation of sub-wavelength client traffic onto lightpaths. The principal problem in traffic …
