In this paper, we propose two novel architectures for the short-reach optical access network
(SR-OAN) and long-reach optical access network (LR-OAN) to provide high bandwidth and …

We consider the problem of assessing the reliability and the Birnbaum importance measure
of complex networks under the shared link risk group (SRLG) failure scenario. With a view to …

The problem of counting the spanning trees is related to various interesting problems. The
number of spanning trees is applied in several practical areas. But computing the number of …
