The term “SDN” represents a significant evolution in networking technology and draws
attention and support from network operators, vendors, researchers and industry regulators …

In this review, we describe historical and recent developments towards tackling a century-
long challenge in teletraffic theory, namely the evaluation of blocking probability in overflow …

This paper addresses multipath routing in a mobile wireless network. We review the premise
that a routing protocol should prefer disjoint path construction and argue that using disjoint …

This book describes, analyzes, and recommends traffic engineering (TE) and quality of
service (QoS) optimization methods for integrated voice/data dynamic routing networks …

We consider a circuit-switched multiservice network with non-hierarchical alternative routing
and trunk reservation. Based on the fundamental concept of overflow priority classification …

Routing in wavelength-routed all-optical WDM networks has received much attention in the
past decade, for which fixed and dynamic routing methods have been proposed. Taking into …

The interaction between a complex socio-economic environment and the extremely fast
pace of development of new telecommunication technologies and services justifies the …

The problem of automatic provisioning of survivable service paths in a transport network in
the face of random arrivals and departures, and fundamental traffic uncertainty, is a …

An important problem in the design and deployment of communication networks is the issue
of network restoration to address for various types of failures. In this chapter, we consider a …

Two highly visible public communication networks are the public-switched telephone
network (PSTN) and the Internet. While they typically provide different services and the basic …
