Abstract

In this paper, we propose a cooperation mechanism among multiple virtual topologies in wavelength-routed optical networks. It is based on attractor selection and superimposition, which models the biological systems that behave cooperatively and symbiotically only by sharing a small amount of information with each other. While our proposed method allows each virtual topology to be controlled in a distributed manner, it achieves the cooperation among those virtual topologies with sharing the activity, which indicates the condition of each virtual topology. Through simulations, we demonstrate that our proposed method coordinates all virtual topologies appropriately only by sharing the activity.
