Grooming Telecommunications Networks: Optimization Models and Methods
نویسندگان
چکیده
Grooming has emerged as an active area of research within the operations research and telecommunications fields and concerns the optimization of network transmissions that span multiple distinct transmission channels, protocols, or technologies. This study explores the meaning of grooming, the technical context in which it can be applied, and example situations. A new taxonomy captures key aspects of grooming problems and is used to summarize over 50 key publications on this important traffic-engineering and optimization problem class.

Grooming for two-period optical networks
Minimizing the number of add-drop multiplexers (ADMs) in a unidirectional SONET ring can be formulated as a graph decomposition problem. When traffic requirements are uniform and all-to-all, groomings that minimize the number of ADMs (equivalently, the drop cost) have been characterized for grooming ratio at most six. However, when two different traffic requirements are supported, these solutio...
متن کاملPareto Optimization of Two-element Wing Models with Morphing Flap Using Computational Fluid Dynamics, Grouped Method of Data handling Artificial Neural Networks and Genetic Algorithms
A multi-objective optimization (MOO) of two-element wing models with morphing flap by using computational fluid dynamics (CFD) techniques, artificial neural networks (ANN), and non-dominated sorting genetic algorithms (NSGA II), is performed in this paper. At first, the domain is solved numerically in various two-element wing models with morphing flap using CFD techniques and lift (L) and drag ...
متن کاملTraffic Grooming Optimization in Mesh Wdm Networks without Wavelength Converter
This is a tutorial paper on the traffic grooming optimization in mesh Wavelength Division Multiplexing (WDM) networks for static traffic patterns. The traffic grooming technique provides a two-layer traffic engineering capability by aggregating and routing low-bandwidth traffic flows from the upper layer over re-configurable highbandwidth connections in the lower layer. This paper demonstrates ...

Traffic grooming deals with efficiently packing/unpacking low-speed connections onto high-capacity trunks. We examine traffic grooming for optical mesh networks by reviewing grooming-node architectures, traffic models, grooming policies, novel graph models, survivable grooming, and hierarchical switching, etc. @2003 Optical Society of America OCIS codes: (060.4250) Networks; (060.4510) Optical ...
متن کاملLearning Model for Reducing the Delay in Traffic Grooming Optimization
Hopfield networks have been suggested as a tool for the optimization of traffic grooming. However, this method of optimization based on neural networks normally requires a considerable delay to find an optimal solution. This limited their practicability in optical data transport. This paper proposes a solution to reduce this delay. That is a learning model in which arriving service patterns are...
