In recent years, with the rapid growth of the Internet, the
bandwidth demand for data traffic is exploding. Optical networks
based on wavelength-division multiplexing (WDM) technology offer
the promise to satisfy the bandwidth requirements of the Internet
infrastructure. With WDM technology, signals are carried
simultaneously on mUltiple wavelengths on a single fiber. WDM
provides a practical approach of resolving the mismatch between the
fiber ca pacity and the peak electronic processing speed.
Mesh-based WDM networks have recently attracted much research and
development interest since the In ternet topology is meshed in
nature, and more importantly, mesh-based WDM networks are flexible
with respect to routing and survivability. This book exam ines the
management and survivability issues of mesh-based WDM networks and
proposes new WDM network protocols and algorithms that could make
telecommunication networks more efficient. Wavelength-routing has
been one of the most important technologies to em ploy WDM in
backbone networks. In wavelength-routed WDM networks, optical
channels, which are referred to as lightpaths, are set up between
WDM terminals. Most chapters of this bock are focused on various
issues related to wavelength-routed networks, namely, routing and
wavelength-assignment, con trol and management, fault management,
and wavelength-converter placement. This book also presents an
all-optical packet-switched network architecture based on the
concept of photonic slot routing. The audience for this book are
network designers and planners, research and development engineers
active in the field of telecommunications, and students of optical
networking at the graduate or senior undergraduate levels."
