Routing and wavelength assignment in all-optical networks based on the bee colony optimization

چکیده
Routing and Wavelength Assignment (RWA) problem in all-optical networks assumes determining the routes and wavelengths to be used to create the lightpaths for connection requests. The RWA problem belongs to a class of difficult combinatorial optimization problems. We propose the Bee Colony Optimization (BCO) heuristic algorithm tailored for the RWA problem (BCO–RWA) in all-optical networks without wavelength conversion in intermediate nodes. The BCO represents a new metaheuristic capable to solve difficult combinatorial optimization problems. The artificial bee colony behaves partially alike, and partially differently from bee colonies in nature. The proposed BCO–RWA algorithm has been performed for static case in which ligthpath requests are known in advance. We proved that BCO–RWA is able to produce optimal or near-optimal solutions in a reasonable amount of computer time.

A Novel Protection Guaranteed, Quality of Transmission Aware Routing and Wavelength Assignment Algorithm for All-optical Networks
Transparent All Optical Networks carry huge traffic and any link failure can cause the loss of gigabits of data; hence protection and its guarantee becomes necessary at the time of failure. Many protection schemes were presented in the literature, but none of them speaks about protection guarantee. Also, in all optical networks, due to absence of regeneration capabilities, the physical layer i...

This paper researches the routing and wavelength assignment (RWA) problem in wavelength routed optical WDM networks with the wavelength conversion capability at different network nodes. We studied the static case in which all connection requests are known in advance, thus a routing decision can be made based on the complete knowledge of the traffic to be served by the network. The Bee Colony Op...
