The continuous growth of traffic volumes is making the consumed energy, in telecommunication networks, a critical issue. In this context, the implementation of new content distribution solutions will speed up this traffic increase. In particular, these solutions will significantly impact the traffic profile in metro networks. The current centralized traffic scenario will move toward a scenario in which the traffic exchanges would be distributed among all the nodes of the metro network. In this work, starting from a real traffic scenario, we estimate a possible traffic evolution, and we design the metro networks, according to different architectures, using integer linear programming formulations. The aim was to understand which architecture can better face the considered traffic evolution. The comparison is performed considering the energy consumption, the network setup and management, and the quality of service ensured by the architectures.

“…More recently, in [6], the authors consider distributed scheduling with random static allocation, for both dynamic and semi-dynamic traffic. In [7], a static slot allocation is proposed for a centralized control plane, and its well performance in comparison to distributed, non-static allocation is demonstrated. Medium Access Control algorithm for TWIN, based on Passive Optical Network principles is proposed in [8].…”

“…In this paper, we consider the static slot allocation, as in [2] or [7], but our "scheduling aware" dimensioning method combines two subproblems: the static slot allocation and the routing and wavelength assignment in TWIN. Such approach is novel, and to the best of authors' knowledge, this is the first work that addresses both problems simultaneously.…”

In this paper, we present a novel approach for resource provisioning in Time-Domain Wavelength Interleaved Network (TWIN), an optical burst switching solution available for transport in regional networks, with nodes equipped with transponders composed of a fast tunable transmitter and a fixedwavelength receiver. The approach consist in allocating the number of transponders to satisfy the traffic demand, providing at the same time an optimal slot schedule for the transport of optical bursts. Apart from calculating the optimal schedule, the solution also allocates the additional slots to sources, in order to improve the level of QoS latency experienced by individual network flows during the pre-insertion queueing process. This functionality is achieved by original QoS constraints. The dimensioning method is optimal, formulated as Mixed Integer Linear Program (MILP), and it allows a trade-off between the amount of network resources allocated and the QoS performances of the optimal solution. By simulations we studied the impact of the proposed dimensioning solution on the network performances and the total network capacity achievable by TWIN. We show that our proposed latency constraint mechanism leads to insertion latency limited to few time slots only at no additional network resource cost, in a 6node mesh network. We also show that non-uniform network traffic decreases TWIN capacity efficiency (i.e., wastes resources) compared with deterministic traffic.Index Terms-Optical burst switching, network dimensioning, QoS.

“…Both networks have a synchronous, slotted operation; the scheduling problem consists in efficiently allocating the time slots to different source-destination pairs. In contrast to POADM, where both opportunistic and non-opportunistic slot access can be used for scheduling slots, TWIN needs to use some kind of slot reservation or grant mechanism [7]. In both cases, the slot allocation is non-separable from the network planning, and the network configuration has a strong impact on the network performances such as latency [5], [6].…”

In this paper, we compare the cost of the survivable optical transport solutions with subwavelength switching granularity. The focus is on Time-Domain Wavelength Interleaved Network (TWIN) and Packet Optical Add/Drop Multiplexer (POADM) network. Both technologies exploit optical slot switching: TWIN on a physical mesh topology, and POADM on a physical ring. The cost model accounts for the node components, the transponder cost and the cost of wavelength use per km of fiber. For the first time, a single network dimensioning model supporting protection is proposed for these metro technologies.The network planning solution is based on linear programming, and addresses the routing and wavelength assignment problem (RWA) and the optimal scheduler calculation. We consider dedicated protection, which consist in doubling the capacity of each operational connection in the network and shared protection, in which the protection capacity is potentially shared between multiple backup flows. By running the linear programming optimization we study the impact of different protection models on the cost of networks in different configurations and identify the scenarios for which each of the technologies is best suited.
