Booktwo of Object-Oriented Knowledge: The Working Object : Object-Oriented Software Engineering : Methods and Management (PRENTICE HALL OBJECT-ORIENTED SERIES)

Covers these key topics Shared mesh protection for optical WDM networks Survivable traffic grooming for hierarchical optical WDM networks Survivable data over next generation SONET SDH with inverse multiplexing Survivable Optical WDM Networks investigates different approaches for designing and operating an optical network with the objectives that 1 more connections can be carried by a given network leading to more revenue and 2 connections can recover faster in case of failures leading to better services Different networks wavelength routed WDM networks wavelength routed WDM networks with sub wavelength granularity grooming and data over next generation SONET SDH over WDM networks are covered Different approaches are proposed to explore every aspect of a protection scheme such as 1 Protection granularity a At wavelength granularity b At sub wavelength granularity 2 Protection entity a Path protection b Sub path protection c Segment protection 3 and Routing a Single path routing b Multi path routing Tradeoffs between different objectives example resource efficiency vs recovery time are explored and practical approaches are proposed and analyzed
