Survivable routing serves as an important issue in core optical mesh networks. Operators
are mainly interested in the protection of single link failures and a set of multiple link failures …

In this paper, we investigate the problem of survivable all-optical routing in WDM networks
with physical impairments. One of the recent key issues in survivable optical network design …

The majority of papers on resilience deal with fast and resource-saving mechanisms that are
typically taylored to a certain networking technology or to a certain protocol. The aim of this …

The difference between dedicated and shared protection is well known. In this paper we
investigate these ideas applied to sharing power budgets of links. When defining protection …

The evolution of multicast applications has speeded up. providers have to offer cheap and
reliable services for their customers. One way to achieve this is to use a restoration method …

In optical networks, according to the latest tendencies, the goal is to route all demands in all-
optical way. However, in the near future, this will still not be possible due to technical …
