With the growth of Internet users' traffic demands, the efficient and cost-effective usage of
bandwidth and spectrum in optical networks plays an important role in improving service …

This article provides motivation for the elastic optical network (EON) approach, an efficient
and cost-effective solution for provisioning of cloud computing traffic. As opposed to …

In this article, we analyze gains resulting from the use of EON architectures with special
focus on transportation of cloud-ready and content-oriented traffic in the context of network …

In this letter, we propose three new approaches to optimizing multicast traffic in elastic
optical networks that implement distance-adaptive transmission. Two of the approaches are …

ISP networks have become a critical infrastructure in our society. Traffic in these networks is
growing and is increasingly dominated by a small number of large CDNs connecting at …

The paper presents a novel method based on the standard tabu search (TS) approach,
dedicated to solve the routing, modulation and spectrum allocation (RMSA) problem in …

In this paper, we focus on the survivability of elastic optical networks (EONs) that jointly
support two types of traffic demands: unicast and anycast. To provide network survivability …

The paper presents a novel method based on the standard tabu search (TS) approach,
dedicated to solve the routing, modulation and spectrum allocation (RMSA) problem in …

In this paper, we focus on issues related to dynamic routing of anycast and unicast traffic
demands in Elastic Optical Networks (EONs). The growing interest in cloud computing and …

The growing number of services like Content Delivery Networks (CDNs) and cloud
computing triggers a sustainable growth of data transfer and consequently leads to an …
