Survivability and Traffic Grooming in WDM Optical Networks

CPLEX Linear Optimizer 7.0 is used to solve the ILP formulation proposed. It is assumed that each candidate path can be used once, that is, u = 1. Assume that the hop-length limit Tl max = 4, from the topology it is observed that all s-d pairs have paths within this hop-length limit. Hence, the traffic matrix preprocessing does not make any change in the given traffic matrix.
Table 19.2 presents the results obtained by solving the ILP formulation with a hop-length limit of Tl max = 4. It is observed that W = 4 is sufficient on each link, although there is no constraint imposed on the number of wavelengths.
