In this paper, we formulate the problem of traffic prediction in optical networks. We then
design a machine learning approach based on Graph Convolutional Network and the …

We consider a space-division multiplexing elastic optical network (SDM-EON) that supports
super-channels (SChs). A Sch comprises a set of contiguous frequency slots on multiple …

Spectrally-spatially flexible optical networks (SS-FONs) are seen as a next frontier in optical
backbone networks that allow supplying demanded high-capacity transmission. In SS-FONs …

We focus on the efficient modeling and optimization of the flow restoration in the spectrally-
spatially flexible optical networks (SS-FONs) realized using a single mode fiber bundle. To …
