Currently, the world is witnessing a mounting avalanche of data due to the increasing
number of mobile network subscribers, Internet websites, and online services. This trend is …

Elastic optical networks (EONs) are considered to be one of the promising future networks
for spectrum flexibility. In conventional wavelength-division multiplexing networks, routing …

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 …

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 employing multi-core fibers (MCF-EON) have the potential to
expand significantly the transmission capacity of optical transport. However, wide …

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 …

In this paper, the problem of routing, modulation level, core, and spectrum assignment
(RMCSA) in space-division-multiplexed elastic optical networks (SDM-EONs) is studied. We …

We consider an elastic all-optical network, where each node is multicast-capable and does
not support spectrum conversion. In such a network, for a given set of static multicast …

As elastic optical networks (EONs) are expected to convey high bitrate connections, a failure
in these networks causes vast data losses. Thus, addressing the problem of survivability in …

Among the multipath protection schemes found in the literature, the Partitioning Dedicated
Path Protection—PDPP proposes to divide the total transmission rate required by the …
