Providing grooming capability to optical crossconnects (OXCs) in wavelength division multiplexing (WDM) networks can allow
an effective use of the network bandwidth, however, it increases the node cost that operators must sustain when compared to
a non-grooming network. Therefore, operators might consider using sparse grooming instead of full grooming networks. In this
article we consider sparse groomed optical networks. Our contribution is 2-fold. First, we address the grooming placement
problem that seeks for a set of grooming nodes in the network that leads to the highest overall throughput. This problem is
separated into two sub-problems: (i) selection of nodes having grooming capability; (ii) maximization of network throughput
assuming the grooming nodes found by the previous step. These two sub-problems are mathematically formulated for different
OXC placing strategies considering a static traffic scenario. In the second part, we design a practical heuristic grooming
algorithm suitable for dynamic traffic scenarios. The benefit of using sparse grooming nodes, when compared with a non-grooming
scenario, is evaluated in terms of throughput and optical port utilization. Our analysis differs of previous ones since it
considers grooming at a granularity coarser than the traffic granularity, which is an important aspect since network cost
improvement can be obtained at the expense of irrelevant performance impairments. Results show that the insertion of coarse
granularity OXCs can be a viable solution for network throughput increase since this can be done at the expense of relatively
few or no extra optical ports.

In this article, we find that the limiting hop count in a lightpath impacts on the performance of optical networks. Based
on this observation, we propose a dynamic hop count shifting (DYHOS) algorithm that limits the hop count of lightpaths dynamically,
depending on the traffic load. The proposed algorithm searches an available route, while minimizing the waste of network resources
and limiting excessive traffic on the network. Hence, the proposed algorithm increases the network throughput and reduces
the blocking probability. Comparing with shortest path routing and adaptive path routing algorithms, we show the performance
of the proposed algorithm has the lowest blocking probability influenced by the hop count of lightpaths for a given routing
algorithm.

Dynamic restoration algorithms which support real-time and multi-services recovery are significant for the survivability of
WDM (wavelength division multiplexed) networks. In this article, an intelligent dynamic restoration algorithm for multi-services
in WDM networks based on the partheno genetic algorithm is proposed. In these networks, partial wavelength conversion is used.
The algorithm is implemented within an interconnected multilayer-graph model and two kinds of optical networks matrix models.
Compared with the basic restoration scheme, the proposed algorithm can make use of available network state information and
can restore the affected multi-services fast and parallel. Simulation showed that the proposed algorithm can improve the restoration
efficiency under high loads and reduce the service disruption ratio on the basis of fully utilizing resources of the network.

The article addresses a simulation-based optimization approach for allocation of ADMs in WDM optical networks with stochastic
dynamic traffic. Since ADMs are expensive, it is desirable that if each node in WDM optical networks can use a minimum number
of ADMs to achieve a near-ideal performance. In this article, first, the utilization statistics of ADMs are gathered by simulation.
Then, ADMs are allocated based on the utilization statistics. In this respect, a simple sorting mechanism is used. The distinguished
feature of the proposed approach is that it shows the way to allocate ADMs at the nodes of WDM optical networks with stochastic
dynamic traffic. The experimental results ensure that the proposed approach can solve the problem of allocating ADMs in practical
WDM optical networks considering stochastic dynamic traffic.

By taking advantage of statistical multiplexing gain in the burst level, optical burst switching (OBS) technology enables
optical Internet to handle huge volume of data in an efficient manner without requiring optical buffers in the optical domain.
However, when congestion builds up in the optical network core, large amount of data might be lost. In this article, we propose
an efficient optical burst control algorithm that operates based on the awareness of future burst traffic condition to eliminate
the effect of congestion reaction delay. The proposed algorithm takes advantage of multiple statistics to improve the estimation
accuracy.Through performance evaluation, it is verified that the proposed algorithm proactively controls inbound burst traffic
so that the OBS network can stay in a stable traffic condition while keeping the network throughput high.

In optical wavelength-division multiplexing (WDM) networks, traffic can be unevenly distributed across the network causing
inefficient utilization of resources. To solve this problem, an improved soft preemptive (SP) scheme is proposed by considering
dynamic resource distribution to deal with the uneven network utilization. A novel unevenly distributed traffic model in cross-time-zone
networks is also presented to evaluate the efficiency of the new scheme. Compared with other schemes such as normal shortest
path first (SPF) routing and wavelength conversion (WC), the new proposed scheme results demonstrate significantly better
performance with respect to the network utilization and overall network blocking probability.

Optical burst switching (OBS) is regarded as one of the most promising switching technologies for next generation optical
networks. Contention resolution of data bursts is a critical mission to implement practical OBS. The use of fiber delay line
(FDL) buffers has received a lot of attention as a fundamental but effective solution to resolve burst contention. Several
studies have investigated the way to achieve the optimal performance of FDL buffers at a single-node level. However, this
article studies how to achieve the best performance of OBS networks with FDL buffers under varying traffic condition at a
network level. For this purpose, we propose an adaptive load-aware burst assembly (ALBA) scheme, which adaptively adjusts
the size threshold of burst assembler optimized to the current network traffic load. A piggybacking method used to deliver
the traffic-load information from core nodes to ingress edge nodes accelerates the adaptiveness of the proposed scheme by
reducing the update time of the size threshold. The effectiveness of the ALBA scheme is proved by comparing with No-FDL case
and fixed size-threshold cases under changing traffic-load environment from extensive simulation tests.

Performance assessment of multicast node placement for multicast routing in WDM networks with sparse light splitting 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
This article examines all-optical multicast routing for wavelength-routed optical networks with sparse Multicast Capable (MC)
nodes in two phases. The first phase is MC node placement and use of a simple and straightforward Maximum Path Count First
(MPCF) algorithm to obtain candidates for MC nodes. The second phase is multicast routing with MC-based schemes that minimizes
the number of wavelength channels with minimum transmission delay as required by a given multicast session, in that a light-tree
is first constructed to connect MC nodes in a multicast group by using two algorithms, namely, the Pre-computing Minimum Cost
(PMC) tree algorithm and the Pre-computing Shortest Path (PSP) tree algorithm. System performance of the proposed MPCF MC
node placement algorithm is compared with that of the Normalized Cuts (NC) MC node placement algorithm for both PMC and PSP
multicast routing. Furthermore, simulation results compare PMC and PSP multicast routing based on MPCF and NC node placement
with Re-route-to-Source (RTS), Re-route-to-Any (RTA), Member-First (MF), and Member-Only (MO) multicast routing based on a
light forest for a given multicast session in terms of average number of wavelengths needed, average blocking probability,
and mean maximum transmission delay.

Providing differentiated services in IP/MPLS over WDM networks has attracted a lot of recent attention. This article extends
the Path Inflation Control (PIC) policy recently proposed by us to provide differentiated services in IP/MPLS over WDM networks
with traffic grooming. Three different algorithms are considered for provisioning differentiated services. The simulation
results show that, with two of the three algorithms, the network cannot only provide differentiated services when the traffic
load is high but also gives significantly lower blocking for the lower priority class traffic and for the overall traffic
at low traffic loads.

Restoration in wavelength-routed optical networks by means of ant colony optimization 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Because of the distributed control of the network, the dynamic nature of the traffic and the unpredictability of a failure
event, the flexibility and robustness of ant colony optimization (ACO) make it a suitable candidate for provisioning lightpaths
in an optical network. In this work, we propose a fault-tolerant dynamic routing and wavelength assignment (RWA) algorithm
based on the ACO framework, presenting its integration into the Generalized multi-protocol label switching (GMPLS) control
plane. By simulating two different scenarios, we demonstrate the effectiveness of this algorithm when a single link or node
failure occurs.

This paper proposes the use of the saturated cut (SC) method to improve the network performance through efficient dynamic
traffic grooming in IP/MPLS over WDM networks using an overlay model. With the SC information from the IP/MPLS layer, the
optical layer can calculate a lightpath between two node sets rather than the earlier suggested approach of calculating such
paths just between two nodes for better performance. We have used two criteria, bandwidth and path length, to find SCs and
have proposed two algorithms which incorporate this in the path inflation control (PIC) policy proposed earlier. Two typical
networks, NSF and COST239, were used for examining the network performance. The simulation results show that though both methods
can significantly improve the overall network performance the SC method is more efficient for a sparse network like the NSF
network rather than for a dense network like the COST239 network. Since calculating lightpaths for all node pairs for a SC
is time consuming, we propose a considerably simpler heuristic approach that can provide almost the same level of performance
improvement as the SC method but with much lower complexity.

We discuss the effect of adding nodes on the location accuracy of Ad-Hoc networks. All results are obtained by analyzing the
Cramér-Rao Lower bound. We show that for planar network the additional node must have at least 3 connections in order to have
any effect on the existing nodes accuracy. Further, we identify the nodes whose accuracy will be improved. Finally, we show
that the accuracy cannot be improved without limit by adding more and more nodes to an existing network.

Traffic grooming in optical networks is the process of multiplexing and demultiplexing low-speed traffic streams onto high-speed
wavelengths. The research in the domain of traffic grooming mainly focuses on minimizing number of SONET add/drop multiplexers
(SADMs) in SONET/WDM rings and it has been shown that they can potentially be reduced by careful assignment of low-speed traffic
streams onto high-speed wavelengths. However, the cost of the network not only depends on the number of SADMs, but also the
number of wavelengths and the grooming ratio. It is often the case that all of them cannot be minimized simultaneously. In
this article, the problem of minimization of cost of a SONET/WDM unidirectional ring has been modeled as a multiobjective
optimization problem which simultaneously minimizes the number of SADMs, the number of wavelengths, and the grooming ratio.
A popular multiobjective genetic algorithm (NSGA-II) has been used as the underlying optimization tool. The resultant set
of near-Pareto-optimal solutions contains a number of nondominated solutions, which the user can judge relatively and pick
up the most promising one according to the problem requirements. Performance of the proposed algorithm has been demonstrated
on different network topologies.

According to a famous rule-of-thumb, buffer size of each output link of a router should be set to bandwidth-delay product
of the network, in order to achieve high utilization with TCP flows. However, ultra high speed of optical networks makes it
very hard to satisfy this rule-of-thumb, especially with limited choices of buffering in the optical domain, because optical
RAM is under research and it is not expected to have a large capacity, soon. In this article, we evaluate the performance
of our explicit congestion control protocol-based architecture designed for very small Optical RAM-buffered optical packet
switched wavelength division multiplexing networks with pacing at edge nodes in order to decrease the required buffer size
at core nodes. By using a mesh topology and applying TCP traffic, we evaluate the optical buffer size requirements of this
architecture and compare with a common proposal in the literature.

The nodes in a wireless sensor network are generally energy constrained. The lifetime of such a network is limited by the
energy dissipated by individual nodes during signal processing and communication with other nodes. The issues of modeling
a sensor network and assessment of its lifetime have received considerable attention in recent years. This paper provides
an analytical framework for placing a number of nodes in a linear array such that each node dissipates the same energy per
data gathering cycle. This approach ensures that all nodes run out of battery energy almost simultaneously. It is shown that
the network lifetime almost doubles with the proposed scheme as compared to other reported schemes. However, in practice,
the nodes are not expected to be placed as per this theoretical requirement. The issue of random placement of nodes has also
been investigated to obtain the statistics of energy consumption of a node. The analytical results for random node placement
are validated through simulation studies.

Optimization of Handover Parameters for Traffic Sharing in GERAN 总被引:1,自引:1,他引:0
Cellular network traffic is unevenly distributed both in time and space, which greatly complicates network dimensioning. As
a result, some cells in the network are permanently congested, while others are underutilized. In a previous paper, the authors
showed that this problem can be effectively solved in GSM/EDGE Radio Access Networks (GERAN) by modifying handover boundaries.
However, several drawbacks prevent operators from fully exploiting the potential of this technique. This paper investigates
the limitations of current traffic-sharing approaches with tight frequency reuses in GERAN. To deal with such limitations,
an algorithm is proposed to jointly optimize handover margins and signal-level constraints based on network statistics for
traffic sharing in GERAN. A complementary algorithm is proposed to adjust cell (re)selection offsets to minimize the number
of handovers. Simulation results show that the proposed method achieves a significant reduction in call blocking without excessive
call quality impairment or increase of network signaling load when compared to the current approaches. More traffic can thus
be handled without the need for any hardware upgrades, providing a cost-effective means to increase network capacity.

We propose a model that considers several physical impairments in all-optical networks based on optical signal-to-noise degradation.
Our model considers the gain saturation effect and amplified spontaneous emission depletion in optical amplifiers, coherent
crosstalk in optical switches, and four-wave mixing in transmission fibers. We apply our model to investigate the impact of
different physical impairments on the performance of all-optical networks. The simulation results show the impact of each
impairment on network performance in terms of blocking probability as a function of device parameters. We also apply the model
as a metric for impairment-constraint routing in all-optical networks. We show that our proposed routing and wavelength assignment
algorithm outperforms two common approaches.

This paper proposes a tabu search heuristic for solving the routing and wavelength assignment problem in multigranular optical
networks, considering the wavelength-continuity constraint and a set of connections to satisfy. For a number of fibers per
link, a number of wavebands per fiber, and a number of wavelengths per waveband, this algorithm attempts to minimize the total
number of ports used in the network by efficiently grouping lightpaths into bands and fibers, and switching the whole bands
and fibers. The algorithm has been implemented and tested on the NSFNET network, and comparisons have been made with the Balanced
Path Routing and Heavy Traffic First (BPHT) algorithm in terms of number of ports. Generally, the results obtained with our
tabu search heuristic are better than those provided by this algorithm.

A dynamic routing and wavelength allocation technique with an interplay between physical and network layer parameters encompassing
Four-wave mixing (FWM) awareness and teletraffic performance of wavelength-routed optical networks has previously been proposed
for a distributed approach. In this article, we present a fast computational algorithm for our routing and wavelength assignment
(RWA) encompassing FWM-induced crosstalk. The objective is to minimize the time of establishing a dynamic lightpath. For this
purpose, a precomputed matrix of FWM crosstalk products is used in an adapted version of the FWM-aware dynamic RWA algorithm.
The approach is validated through simulations showing improvement up to 30–50% on the provisioning time of lightpaths for
different network topologies compared to an online full computational scheme.

In this article, a genetic evolutionary algorithm is proposed for efficient allocation of wavelength converters in WDM optical
networks. Since wavelength converters are expensive, it is desirable that each node in WDM optical networks uses a minimum
number of wavelength converters to achieve a near-ideal performance. The searching capability of genetic evolutionary algorithm
has been exploited for this purpose. The distinguished feature of the proposed approach lies in handling the conflicting circumstances
during allocation of wavelength converters considering various practical aspects (e.g., spatial problem, connectivity of a
node with other nodes) rather than arbitrarily to possibly improve the overall blocking performance of WDM optical networks.
The proposed algorithm is compared with a previous approach to establish its effectiveness and the results demonstrate the
ability of the proposed algorithm to efficiently solve the problem of Optimal Wavelength Converters Allocation (OWCA) in practical
WDM optical networks.
