Design Efficient Routing Protocols For WDM Optical Networks

光网络技术是下一代网络的关键技术。特别是，波分复用（WDM）光网络已经成为下一代网络的一个有前途的候选人，提供巨大的可用带宽和连接。 路由和波长分配问题是WDM光网络的基本问题之一。在这个项目中，我们主要集中在设计和分析有效的路由算法的所有到所有的路由和鲁棒路由的WDM网络。结合各种已知的技术，将开发实用的算法。在这个项目中开发的算法和技术将通过模拟，测试和实施。

The optical network technique plays a key role to the next-generation networks. In particular, wavelength-division-multiplexing (WDM) optical networks have emerged as a promising candidate for next-generation networks in providing huge available bandwidth and connectivity. Routing and wavelength assignment problem is one of the fundamental problems in WDM optical networks. In this project we primarily focus on devising and analyzing efficient routing algorithms for all-to-all routing and robust routing in the WDM networks. Incorporated with various known techniques, practical algorithms will be developed. The algorithms and techniques developed in this project will be through simulation, testing, and implementation.
