Popis: | Survivability of internet services is a significant and crucial challenge in designing optical networks. A robust infrastructure and transmission protocols are needed to maintain communication, despite the existence of one or more failed components on the system. Here, we present a generalized approach to tolerate any set of failure scenarios to the extent network users can still communicate with the remaining components, where a scenario is an arbitrary set of links in a non-operational state. We propose a joint solution to assess the survivability problem. The issues to be solve simultaneously are as follows: the set of primary routes, a collection of alternate routes associated with each failure scenario, and the capacity required on the network to allow communication between all users, in spite of any considered failure scenario, while satisfying for each user a specific predefined quality of service threshold, defined in the Service Level Agreement (SLA). Numerical results show that the proposed approach not only enjoys the advantages of low complexity and ease of implementation, but it is also able to achieve significant resource savings compared to existing methods. The savings are higher than 30% on single link failures and more than 100% on two simultaneous link failures cases or in more complex failure scenarios. |
