Abstract

Telecommunication is one of the fastest growing business sectors. Future networks will need to integrate a wide variety of services demanding different qualities and capacities from the network. In this paper, network architecture based on hybrid fiber optic-coaxial cable (HFC) is proposed to develop cable integrated telematic services. An evolutionary algorithm is presented to solve the problem in suitable computation times when dealing with real times civil works problems. Finally we present the results over both problem library and real life scenarios.
