Metaheuristic Approaches to Traffic Grooming in Wdm Optical Networks
The widespread deployment of WDM optical networks posts lots of new challenges for network designers. Traffic grooming is one of the most common problems. Efficient grooming of traffic can effectively reduce the overall cost of the network. But unfortunately, traffic grooming problems have been shown to be NP-hard. Therefore, new heuristics must be devised to tackle them. Among these approaches...
متن کاملOptical Switching and Networking
Greening of the Internet has become one of the main challenges for the research community. Optical networks can provide an energy efficient solution, but it has become crucial to assess its power efficiency. In this context, dynamic operation of WDM networks is expected to provide significant power savings when compared to static operation; however, its benefits need to be evaluated to determin...
