Research and development on optical wavelength-division multiplexing (WDM) networks have matured considerably. While optics and electronics should be used appropriately for transmission and switching hardware, note that "intelligence" in any network comes from "software," for network control, management, signaling, traffic engineering, network planning, etc.The role of software in creating powerful network architectures for optical WDM networks is emphasized. Optical WDM Networks is a textbook for graduate level courses. Its focus is on the networking aspects of optical networking, but it also includes coverage of physical layers in optical networks. The author introduces WDM and its enabling technologies and discusses WDM local, access, metro, and long-haul network architectures. Each chapter is self-contained, has problems at the end of each chapter, and the material is organized for self study as well as classroom use. The material is the most recent and timely in capturing the state-of-the-art in the fast-moving field of optical WDM networking.

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) Routing a. Single-path routing b. Multi-path routing Tradeoffs between different objectives, e.g., resource efficiency vs. recovery time, are explored and practical approaches are proposed and analyzed. ---------------------------------------------------------- Canhui (Sam) Ou received a Ph.D. degree from the University of California, Davis, in 2004.

Traffic Grooming in Optical WDM Mesh Networks captures the state-of-the-art in the design and analysis of network architectures, protocols, and algorithms for implementing efficient traffic grooming in optical WDM mesh networks. Key topics include: * Static traffic grooming * Dynamic traffic grooming * Grooming models and policies * Grooming node architectures * Design of grooming network * Traffic grooming in next-generation SONET/SDH networks The authors investigate traffic-grooming problems in optical WDM mesh networks from various aspects. They cover static and dynamic traffic grooming, as well as grooming policies for both environments. A fundamental graph model for traffic-grooming networks is proposed. A variety of grooming-node architectures are examined and their performances compared. Design of traffic-grooming networks using different node architectures is explored, and traffic grooming in next-generation SONET/SDH networks is presented.
