A joint resilience scheme with interlayer backup resource sharing in IP over WDM networks.

A joint resilience scheme with interlayer backup resource sharing in IP over WDM networks.

The survivability of IP over WDM networks gains importance as network traffic keeps growing. Recovery at the lowest layer is fast and scalable. However, it is usually considered to provide poor network utilization. In this article we propose a resilience scheme based on recovery at the lowest layer...
