A key feature of optical networks based on WDM technology is the ability to optimize the
configuration of optimal resources (ie, wavelengths) with respect to a particular traffic …

In this article, we address the opportunities, issues and challenges associated with end-to-
end optical service provisioning and restoration in carrier networks. A number of scenarios …

This paper studies the issues arising in the reconfiguration phase of broadcast optical
networks. Although the ability to dynamically optimize the network under changing traffic …

This article proposes a Service Level Agreement applied to the optical domain (O-SLA),
which is expected to be the near and long term network technology thanks, among other …

Today and in the foreseeable future optical networks are and will be used to implement the
transport layer in telecommunications networks. If in a distributed environment the arrivals of …

This paper summarizes the present state of optical networking, whereabouts of the optical
network by which IP-centric networks carry the traffic. By start out from the assuming that the …

This article proposes a service level agreement applied to the optical domain (O-SLA),
which is expected to be the near-and long-term network technology of the great bandwidth …

In this paper we study the problem of receiver allocation in WDM single-hop optical networks
under dynamically changing traffic. Instead of focusing only on performance optimization, we …
