Abstract :
In this paper, we consider the problem of designing partially and fully survivable explicit label switched paths for MPLS networks. We model the problems as mixed integer linear programs. Furthermore, we present a survivability assessment of the models. We also evaluate the performance of the models presented in the paper, in terms of total used capacity in the network.
