In this paper, we consider the traffic grooming, routing, and wavelength assignment (GRWA)
problem for optical mesh networks. In most previous studies on optical mesh networks, traffic …

In wavelength-division multiplexing (WDM) optical networks, the bandwidth request of a
traffic stream can be much lower than the capacity of a lightpath. Efficiently grooming low …

In a WDM optical network, the bandwidth requirement of a customer's connection can vary
over a wide range, and many of these connections could have a capacity that is much lower …

This paper addresses the two-layer dynamic traffic grooming problem in wavelength-division-
multiplexed (WDM) mesh optical networks subject to resource constraints and the …

We consider the grooming of multicast traffic in WDM optical mesh networks with sparse
nodal light splitting capability. Given multicast routing trees for individual multicast sessions …

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

Summary form only given. We consider an arbitrary-topology, optical mesh network which
employs wavelength-division multiplexing (WDM) to multiply the bandwidth on its links. Our …

This paper studies a traffic grooming in wavelength-division multiplexing (WDM) mesh
networks for the SONET/SDH streams requested between node pairs. The traffic could be …

This paper considers a routing and wavelength assignment problem (RWAP) for the
implementation of efficient Wavelength Division Multiplexing all‐optical mesh networks …

This paper addresses the problem of dynamically provisioning both low-speed unicast and
multicast connection requests in mesh-based wavelength division multiplexing (WDM) …
