Bandwidth fragmentation, a serious issue in elastic optical networks (EONs), can be
suppressed by proper management in order to enhance the accommodated traffic demands …

The rapid growth in communications and internet has changed our way of life, and our
requirement for communication bandwidth. Optical networks can enable us to meet the …

Elastic Optical Networks (EONs) increase the transport capacity of standard optical
networks, and have been proposed as a short-term solution to satisfy the dynamic demands …

Elastic Optical Networks (EONs) are a promising optical technology to deal with the ever-
increasing traffic and the vast number of connected devices of the next generation of the …

Recently, network traffic has been growing exponentially and almost reached the physical
capacity limit of single mode fibers. Space division multiplexing (SDM) is a promising …

In this paper, we have proposed two energy-efficient heuristics:(i) CMDE-RSCA (crosstalk-
aware), and (ii) FMDE-RSCA (fragmentation-aware) to address the issues of inter-core …

An innovative technology to expand transmission capacity of optical backbone networks is
Elastic Optical Network (EON). EON adds flexibility to conventional WDM networks. In EON …

Based on the concept of infrastructure as a service, optical network virtualization can
improve the efficiency of network infrastructure by sharing the physical substrate network …

In this paper, we explore the problem of routing, modulation and spectrum assignment
(RMSA) for advance reservation (AR) requests in elastic optical networks (EONs), with the …

Elastic optical networks (EONs) provide flexibility to assign wide range of spectral resources
to the connection requests. In this manuscript, we address two issues related to spectrum …
