Network survivability—the ability to maintain operation when one or a few network
components fail—is indispensable for present‐day networks. In this paper, we characterize …

In current cloud computing systems, when leveraging virtualization technology, the
customer's requested data computing or storing service is accommodated by a set of …

With the increasing frequency of natural disasters and intentional attacks that challenge
communication networks, vulnerability to cascading, and regional‐correlated challenges is …

With the increasing scale of cloud datacenters and rapid development of virtualization
technologies, many cloud-based services have been deployed to meet requirements. Virtual …

The notion of Shared Risk Link Groups (SRLG) captures survivability issues when a set of
links of a network may fail simultaneously. The theory of survivable network design relies on …

Let G be a graph with zero or more colours assigned to its vertices, and let vs and vt be two
vertices of G. The minimum-colour path problem is to determine the minimum over all vs–vt …

Spatially-close network fibers have a significant chance of failing simultaneously in the event
of man-made or natural disasters within their geographic area. Network operators are …

Failure resilience is a desired feature in communication networks, and different methods can
be considered in order to achieve this feature. One of these methods is diverse Routing. In …

Ensuring transmission survivability is a crucial problem for high-speed networks. Path
protection is a fast and capacity-efficient approach for increasing the availability of end to …

The notion of Shared Risk Link Groups (SRLG) has been introduced to capture survivability
issues where some links of a network fail simultaneously. In this context, the diverse routing …
