The size of the capacity of data centers have been growing significantly during the last
years. Most data centers rely on switched Ethernet networks. A drawback of the Ethernet …

In telecommunication networks based on the current Ethernet technology, routing of traffic
demands is based on multiple spanning trees: the network operator configures different …

Switched Ethernet networks rely on the Spanning Tree Protocol (STP) to ensure a cycle-free
connectivity between nodes, by reducing the topology of the network to a spanning tree. The …

We propose an energy management framework to optimize the energy consumption of
networks using the Multiple Spanning Tree Protocol such as Carrier Grade Ethernet …

Given a capacitated telecommunications network with single path routing and an estimated
traffic demand matrix, we aim to determine the routing path of each traffic commodity such …

This paper deals with optimal load balancing in telecommunication networks. For a
capacitated telecommunications network with single path routing and an estimated traffic …

The low cost, high transmission rate and ubiquity of current Ethernet lead to the possibility of
bringing Ethernet into Metropolitan Area Networks (MANs). However, the traditional …

We propose a multitree based fast failover scheme for Ethernet networks. In our system, only
few spanning trees are used to carry working traffic in the normal state. As a failure happens …

Major Challenge for deploying Ethernet in metro area networks is to guarantee the quality of
service and traffic engineering requirements. In the literature, there are many forwarding …

Large switched Ethernet networks are deployed in campus networks, data centers and
metropolitan area networks to support various types of services. Congestion is usually …
