Grooming Telecommunications Network: Optimization Replicas and Techniques

Abstract

The rapid expansion of the use of internet in the last decade has been made feasible largely by optical networks with high bandwidth and consistency. This paper explores the meaning of grooming, the methodological context in which it can be applied. An innovative nomenclature incarcerates useful aspects of grooming problems and is used to review publications on traffic-engineering and optimization problem class. The paper proposed an efficient traffic grooming model for all optical networks. The model has low complexity and it can be easily implemented for traffic grooming problems.

An Energy Efficient based Optical Network using Cloud Computing Techniques under an Improved Layer of Honeypots for Security

“…A lightpath can be shared by many distinct traffic streams to effectively use the available bandwidth. This is referred to as traffic grooming [4]. Although traffic grooming can increase throughput, it also has the potential to lower energy use, though this is not always the case.…”
