Routing and Wavelength Assignment for WDM-based Optical Networks: Quality-of-Service and Fault Resilience

This book presents an in—depth treatment of routing and wavelength assignment for optical networks, and focuses specifically on quality—of—service and fault resiliency issues. It reports on novel approaches for the development of routing and wavelength assignment schemes for fault firesilient optical networks, which improve their performance in terms of signal quality, call blocking, congestion level and reliability, without a substantial increase in network setup cost.

The book first pres...
