The problem of designing a logical topology over a wavelength-routed all-optical network
(AON) physical topology is studied. The physical topology consists of the nodes and fiber …

We propose a new framework for the link assignment (ie, topological design) problem that
arises from the use of intersatellite links (ISL's) in low-earth orbit (LEO) satellite networks. In …

We explore design principles for next-generation optical wide-area networks, employing
wavelength-division multiplexing (WDM) and targeted to nationwide coverage. This optical …

We present a new approach to the virtual-topology reconfiguration problem for a wavelength-
division-multiplexing-based optical wide-area mesh network under dynamic traffic demand …

We provide network designs for optical add-drop wavelength-division-multiplexed (OADM)
rings that minimize overall network cost, rather than just the number of wavelengths needed …

In this article traffic-engineering issues regarding network survivability, traffic grooming,
impairment-aware routing, virtual-topology engineering, and coordination among multiple …

For pt. I see ibid., vol. 6, no. 3, p. 12-27, 1992. A survey of wavelength-division-multiplexing
(WDM)-based local lightwave networks is presented. The general characteristics of multihop …

The different approaches being considered to build high-capacity lightwave networks are
described. Two kinds of lightwave network architectures are examined: broadcast-and …

An architectural approach for very-high-capacity wide-area optical networks is presented,
and a proposed program of research to address key system and device issues is described …

Presents a heuristic algorithm for effectively assigning a limited number of wavelengths
among the access stations of a multihop network wherein the physical medium consists of …
