Abstract
In this paper, the problem of routing multicast demands in elastic optical network (EON) is studied. In order to solve the problem in an efficient way, the tabu search algorithm with move prioritization mechanism is proposed. The algorithm is considered in 4 versions, which differ in the move generation process. Next, the numerical experiments are conducted in order to evaluate the algorithm performance and compare its different versions. According to the results, the proposed TS method achieves very good results and significantly outperforms the reference algorithms.
