Abstract

This paper considers the scheduling problem of packet transmissions in a TDM/WDM unidirectional optical ring network. Our objective is to design a scheduling scheme for packet transmission with minimum scheduling length satisfying a set of traffic requirements. We focus on a fairly general case in that non-uniform traffic demands and arbitrary transmitter tuning latencies are allowed. Since the scheduling problem in TDM/WDM ring networks is known to be NP-Complete, we formulate the problem as an Integer Linear Program (ILP) and propose some heuristic algorithms to find feasible solutions.
