GENMET(GEneralized Multihop Network) which is based on Wavelength-Division Multiplexsing(WDM) and can be used in order to construct the next generation lightwave network is a logical(virtual), packet-switched and multihop topology network. GENMET is a regular multihop network which is a generalization of Shuffle network and do Bruijn network As such, it has the advantage of simple routing which is critical in a high speed network Given a physical topology, different logical topologies can be derived for assigning wavelengths to the UserNodes. By appropriately assigning wavelengths, performance of the network, such as mean hop count, maximum throughput and mean packet delay can be improved. In this paper, we propose heuristic algorithms for effectively assigning a limited number of wavelengths to the given UserNodes. The Performance of proposed algorithm is compared with the random assignment and the lower bounds.

In this study, we consider the minimum ADM problem which is the fundamental problem for the cost-effective design of SONET ADM embedded in WDM ring networks. To minimize the number of SONET ADMs, efficient algorithms for the routing and wavelength assignment are needed. We propose a mathematical model based on the graph theory for the problem and propose a branch-and-price approach to solve the suggested model effectively within reasonable time. By exploiting the mathematical structure of ring networks, we developed polynomial time algorithms for column generation subroutine at branch-and-bound tree. In a computer simulation study, the suggested approach can find the optimal solution for sufficient size networks and shows better performance than the greedy heuristic method.

Multi-constraint QoS routing has been seen as crucial network property in the next generation optical Internet based on DWDM Networks. This paper proposes a new QoS routing algorithm based on flooding method, called bounded flooding routing (BFR) algorithm which can meet multi-constraint QoS requirements. Primarily, the BFR algorithm tries to reduce network overhead by accomplishing bounded-flooding to meet QoS requirements, and improve blocking probability and wavelength utilization. Also, as one effort to improve routing performance, we introduce a new concept, ripple count, which does not need any link-state information and computational process. For extensive analysis and simulation study, as a critical concern, in DWDM-based networks we deploy limited wavelength conversion capability within DWDM nodes. And the simulation results demonstrate that the BFR algorithm is superior to other predominant routing algorithms (both original flooding method and source-directed methods) in terms of blocking probability, wavelength channels required and overhead.

This paper considers the efficient design of routing path and wavelength assignment asignment in the sigle-hop WDM optical transport networks. The connecton demands between node-pairs are given and a connection must be made by only one lightpath. It is assumed that no wavelength conversion is allowed and the physical topology of the network is given. This paper proposes a method to find the routes of lightpaths and assign wavelengths to the routes, which minimizes the number of total wavelength to satisfy all connection demands. We establish a new optimization model that finds the minimum number of wavelengths. A heuristic algorithm with polynomial iterations is developed for the problem. The algorithm is implemented and applied to the netowrks with real problem size. The results of the application are compared with the commericial optimization solver, GAMS/OSL and Wauters & Demeester [8].

WDM is a very promisinig technique for the realization of future All-Optical networks. WDM gives an advantage of high rate transmission without delay for Electronic/optical conversion. But the available number of wavelengths is limited by technical restriction. so the efficient optical path routing and wavelength assignment is needed. this paper is concerned with the efficient design of WDM optical transport networks. RWA assumes that the connection demands between node pairs are given. the objective of RWA is to minimize the number of wavelengths. these design consider the static routing and wavelength assignment in the network of arbitrary topology. To solve these problems, this paper proposes some heuristic algorithms.

In this paper, we address a problem of traffic grooming and wavelength routing in all optical WDM ring networks. Given a traffic demand for each node pair, we should aggregate the traffic onto lightpaths between pairs of nodes to transport the demand, and set up the routing path for each lightpath with minimum number of wavelengths to be assigned to lightpaths. In this paper, we formulate our problem as a mixed Integer Programming model. Owing to the problem complexity, it is hard to find an optimal solution for our problem. hence, we develop a heuristic algorithm to solve our problem efficiently. From the computational experiments, we can find the proposed heuristic is very satisfactory in both the computation time and the solution quality generated.

In the next generation backbone networks based on dense-wavelength division multiplexing (DWDM), the routing and wavelength assignment with quality-of-service (QoS) recovery is essentially needed to support a wide range of communication-intensive and real-time multimedia services. This paper proposes a new dpmic routing method called as MW-MIPR (MultiWavelength-Minimum Interference Path Routing), which chooses a route that does not interfere too much with many potential future connection requests. This paper also proposes a differentiated RWA mechanisms combined with MW-MIPR algorithm to provide QoS recovery for various multimedia applications in the next generation backbone networks based on DWDM.

A major challenge in next generation optical Internet (NGOI) networks based on dense-wavelength division multiplexing (DWDM) is the provision of guaranteed quality-of-service (QoS) for a wide variety of multimedia applications. One of the critical issues in NGOI is the routing and wavelength assignment problem that is embossed as very important and plays a key role in improving the global efficiency for capacity utilization. But the previous researches had the delay problem, and the path routed by higher priority nodes may be congested and interfere with potential future multicast session requests. To overcome these problems, in this research we suggest a Priority-based Minimum Interference Path Multicast Routing (PMIPMR) algorithm, a new routing algorithm which finds alternative routes based on node priorities and Virtual Source (VS) nodes that has both splitting and wavelength conversion, and then chooses a path that does not interfere with potential future multicast session requests when congestions occur in the network. The PMIPMR algorithm reduces blocking rate significantly and increases the wavelength utilization by avoiding congestion in future multicast session requests.

This paper studies the effects of wavelength conversion on self-healing optical networks. We examined the effects of wavelength conversion capability on the backup routing and the spare wavelength utilization. The efficiency of spare wavelength utilization is proportionally increased as the wavelength conversion capability increases, different from the call blocking probability for which about 30% of wavelength conversion capability shows nearly the same performance as full wavelength conversion capability. The spare resource utilization efficiency can be improved by using alternate routing and wavelength assignment algorithms.
