Resilient Optical Network Design: Advances in Fault-Tolerant Methodologies

Dense wavelength division multiplexing (DWDM) optical networks are prone to failure, which can potentially lead to a catastrophic loss of data and revenue. Given this, one of the most important optical network design issues is survivability or the ability of a network to provide continuous service at an acceptable level in the presence of different failure scenarios. Resilient Optical Network Desi...
