(cont.) We starts with a examination of various measures of regular topologies. The average
minimum hop distance plays a crucial role in evaluating the efficiency of network …

We present algorithms for the design of optimal virtual topologies embedded on wide-area
wavelength-routed optical networks. The physical network architecture employs wavelength …

Traditional approaches to wavelength routing network design divide it into two separate
problems: virtual topology design (VTD), in which best connections among nodes are …

In this paper, we provide some analytical insights into physical architectures that can serve
as benchmarks for designing a cost-efficient WDM metropolitan area network (MAN). For …

The planning of optical networks aims to design a configuration that meets the desired
requirements while reducing the overall expenses. Many attributes of a network ultimately …

We consider the problem of constructing logical topologies over a wavelength-routed optical
network with no wavelength changers. We present a general linear formulation which …

We study the complexity of a set of design problems for optical networks. Under wavelength
division multiplexing (WDM) technology, demands sharing a common fiber are transported …

We consider a wavelength-routed optical network operated as a lightpath-based virtual
topology. We present an exact linear programming formulation for the complete virtual …

A new algorithm, GAPDELT, is presented to jointly design the resource provisioning and the
logical topology of wavelength-routed optical networks. GAPDELT is based on genetic …

The design of optical networks for maximum throughput under diverse traffic demands is a
long-standing NP-hard problem. In this paper, by parameterizing the relationship between …
