society is growing increasingly dependent upon large-scale, highly distributed systems that operate in unbounded open network environments. unless safeguards are incorporated in the system, a failure of even a single component, e.g. a link or a node, can significantly impact the network performance and can cause highly expensive damages. the discipline of survivability attempts to ensure that n...

The impetus focus is on to provide high data transfer and utilization of high bandwidth, so the era of computer networks completed a journey from co-axial, twisted pairs cables to optical cables migrating from SONET/SDH to WDM technology based networks. This paper deals with various aspects concerned to WDM based networks in context to failure of fiber links in WDM optical networks and the surv...

This invited paper describes about mobile wavelength division multiplexing (WDM) backhaul network designs for future radio access networks. First, it introduces mobile backhaul requirements to support LTE-Advanced and Beyond with emphasis on coordinated multipoints (CoMP) techniques. It primarily considers WDM passive optical networks (WDM-PON) as promising optical access technologies for mobil...

Recently, there has been growing interest in developing optical ber networks to support the increasing bandwidth demands of multimedia applications, such as video conferencing and World Wide Web browsing. One technique for accessing the huge bandwidth available in an optical ber is wavelengthdivision multiplexing (WDM). Under WDM, the optical ber bandwidth is divided into a number of non-overla...

This paper addresses the problem of multiple multicast in WDM networks. It presents three efficient algorithms to construct an optimal/sub-optimal multicast tree for each multicast and minimise the network congestion on wavelengths. The first two algorithm achieve an optimal network congestion for a specific class of networks whose all wavelengths are globally accessible and convertible at a un...

The optical CDMA and WDM systems have been of widespread implementation for local and metro access network. This is because optical CDMA systems provide users both simultaneous and asynchronous access to networks with high security [1], and WDM systems provide a relatively high transmission capacity [2]. In addition, optical CDMA can be overlaid onto existing WDM networks in order to enhance th...

R ECENT developments in wavelength division multi-plexing (WDM) technology have led to a tremendous amount of commercial and research interest in WDM-based networks. Until recently, WDM has been used primarily for point-to-point long haul transmission. However, with the emergence of WDM networking components, people are beginning to design and deploy WDM-based networks that take advantage of th...

Optical technology gains extensive attention and ever increasing improvement because of the huge amount of network traffic caused by the growing number of internet users and their rising demands. However, with wavelength division multiplexing (WDM), it is easier to take the advantage of optical networks and optical burst switching (OBS) and to construct WDM networks with low delay rates and bet...
