Optical networks constitute a fundamental building block that has enabled the success of
cloud computing. Virtualization, a cornerstone of cloud computing, today is applied in the …

There is a significant motivation to increase restoration speed of electric power
communication network by using mesh-based schemes, because they can always take less …

In the currently dominant cloud computing paradigm, applications are being served in data
centers (DCs) which are connected to high capacity optical networks. For cost efficiency …

Internet of Energy is promoting the deep integration between power grid and communication
technologies, while the production, operation and service mode of the power grid are …

We present a network engineering process to improve service availability of optical mesh
networks by employing protection links. In the existing optical mesh networks, high service …

A multilink failures model, ie, probabilistic-shared risk link group (PSRLG), is adopted to
investigate the problem of differentiated quality-of-protection (QoP) provisioning for flexi-grid …

Services provided over telecommunications networks typically have different resilience
requirements and networks need to be able to support different levels of resilience in an …

In cloud-like scenarios, demand is served at one of multiple possible data center (DC)
destinations. Usually, the exact DC that is used can be freely chosen, which leads to an …
