Grooming-Enhanced Multicast in Multilayer Networks

چکیده
In this paper we investigate and evaluate the performance of multicast routing in grooming capable multi-layer optical wavelength division multiplexing (WDM) networks. New wavelength-graph models are proposed for network equipments capable of optical-layer branching of light-paths. We evaluate the cost-effectiveness of electronic and optical-layer multicast and unicast as well. The high scalability of optical multicast against unicast is also showed. All routing and technical constraints are formulated in ILP and realized in our versatile simulator.

Grooming-Enhanced Multicast in Multilayer Networks with Bacterial Evolutionary Algorithm
In this paper we introduce new, bacterial evolutionary algorithm (BEA) based methods for routing unicast and multicast demands in grooming capable multi-layer optical wavelength division multiplexing (WDM) networks. The methods introduced are compared with both well known heuristic methods, accumulative shortest path heuristic (ASP) and minimum path heuristic (MPH), and as well as with ILP. We ...
متن کاملDynamic Multicast Traffic Grooming in WDM Networks with Reconfigurable Light-trees
We address the traffic grooming problem in WDM mesh networks with dynamic multicast traffic. We develop a grooming algorithm in which light-trees can dynamically be reconfigured when a new route is established. c © 2004 Optical Society of America OCIS codes: (060.4250) Networks
متن کاملOptimized Dynamic Traffic Grooming for Multicast Traffic in Optical WDM Networks
The dynamic traffic-grooming problem in wavelength routed networks is generally a two-layered routing problem in which traffic connections are routed over light paths in the virtual topology layer and light paths are routed over physical links in the physical topology layer. Traffic grooming for multicast communication in WDM networks has received very little attention to date. In this paper, w...
متن کاملTraffic Groomed Multicasting in Sparse-Splitting WDM Backbone Networks
As the interest of the Internet multicasting increases, the huge portion of the future traffic in optical WDM networks is expected to be strongly related to multicast applications and thus the technology for grooming such traffics also becomes important. In this study, we investigate the problem of multicast traffic grooming in WDM optical mesh networks with sparse-splitting capability. The pro...
