Abstract

The method in which Routing and Wavelength Assignment (RWA) of connection requests is performed in optical WDM networks, can appreciably affect resource consumption. The blocking probability for lightpath requests increases significantly with increase in resource consumption. Thus the method of performing RWA should be such that it minimizes consumption of network resources. RWA in all-optical networks is an NP-Complete problem. This paper proposes six new heuristic algorithms for static RWA in all-optical mesh networks that are not only efficient in terms of resource conservation but can also solve the RWA problem effectively in polynomial time. Comparisons show that the proposed algorithms perform better than some earlier well-known strategies.
