Elastic optical networks (EONs) have been receiving extensive attention because of their
inherent flexibility and the efficiency with which they allocate fiber-bandwidth. For an EON …

This paper considers distance adaptive dynamic routing and spectrum assignment (RSA) for
elastic optical networks with shared backup path protection (SBPP). Efficient heuristic …

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 …

5G network slicing allows partitioning of network resources to meet stringent end-to-end
service requirements across multiple network segments, from access to transport. These …

High spectrum efficiency and fast restoration speed are highly desired for survivable elastic
optical networks (EONs). In this paper, we take the advantages of failure-independent path …

Availability-aware service provisioning tries to satisfy the availability requirements of clients
on demand and can improve the resource efficiency in optical networks. This paper studies …

Acting as a promising technology to bring revolutionary changes to how the networks are
architected, network function virtualization (NFV) leverages IT virtualization technologies to …

In this paper, we investigate power-efficient directed preconfigured cycles (p-Cycles) for
asymmetric traffic protection in elastic optical networks (EONs) against single link failure …

In this paper, we develop a theoretical model to precisely analyze the service availability of
networks with preconfigured cycles (p-cycles). By considering the dependence among …
