Abstract :
We present a network operation tool called Impairment Aware Lightpath Computation Engine (IALCE) that incorporates an impairment-aware routing and wavelength assignment (RWA) algorithm. We perform experiments illustrating the flexibility of the engine and the performance of the algorithm.
