Abstract

In this paper, we consider two important objectives of networkoperation: (i) capacity minimization and (ii) revenue maximization.For capacity minimization, we formulate three operational phases insurvivable WDM network operation viz., initial call set up,short/medium-term reconfiguration, and long-term reconfiguration.All three phases are derived from a single integer linearprogramming (ILP) formulation. This common framework incorporatesservice disruption. We modify the framework for revenuemaximization that includes a service differentiation model based onlightpath protection. We propose a multistage solution methodologyto solve individual service classes sequentially and combine themto obtain a feasible solution. We provide cost comparisons in termsof increase in revenue obtained by various service classes with thebase case of accepting demands without any protection. Results areprovided to demonstrate the effectiveness of our framework.
