Service Provisioning to Provide Per-Connection-Based Availability Guarantee in WDM Mesh Networks
نویسندگان
چکیده
Protection schemes for WDM mesh networks (dedicated-path, shared-path, etc.) are typically based on the single-failure scenario. When fiber-cut rate and network maintenance frequency are high, the network operator needs novel methods to handle multiple, near-simultaneous failures where different network components (including fiber spans) may have different failure rates. Service reliability determines (a) whether protection is needed, and (b) its effectiveness.

Reliable Multi-Path Provisioning for High-Capacity Backbone Mesh Network
We investigate reliable multi-path provisioning of traffic in high-capacity backbone mesh networks, e.g., nextgeneration SONET/SDH networks supporting virtual concatenation (VCAT). VCAT enables a connection to be inversely multiplexed on to multiple paths, a feature that may lead to significantly improved performance over conventional single-path provisioning. Other mesh networks such as those ...
متن کاملDynamic Multipath Bandwidth Provisioning with Jitter, Throughput, SLA Constraints in MPLS over WDM Network
Multipath bandwidth provisioning is one of the prime interest of next generation optical networks. It is a policy to distribute the requested bandwidth in multiple link disjoint paths on the basis of some optimization function. It also helps to increase network throughput. By using backup path provisioning, we can meet availability requirement of service level agreement (SLA). But multipath ban...
متن کاملA Priority-Aware Protection Technique for Quality of Service Enabled WDM Networks
Connection availability is considered as a critical metric, when providing differentiated services in WDM mesh networks. Indeed, one of the major concerns of optical network operators is related to improving the availability of services provided to their highest-class clients. Achieving this objective is possible through the use of the different classical protection schemes, namely the so-calle...

متن کاملConstraint-based path selection methods for on-demand provisioning in WDM networks
path information of choice, such as transmission quality, reliability , policy and traffic conditions, is updated following a connection request, based on a local, autonomous and service-differentiated characterization of optical network elements. It is this local and autonomous network state information that makes our approach particularly suitable for distributed implementation , and applicab...
