Abstract :
Architecture on Demand (AoD) can provide self-healing at the optical node level due to its flexibility and the ability to employ idle components for failure recovery. We study the impact of AoD on network availability at different traffic switching granularities, showing significant improvements compared to traditional static node architecture.
