Abstract :
An integer programming model and Lagrangian relaxation-based heuristic solution method is developed, to determine transmission capacity in private backbone networks using DCS´s, such that multibusy-hour point-to-point circuit requirements can be met at low cost. It simultaneously determines capacity, routing and topology. Numerical results for T1 networks are shown
