Abstract

Multi-domain resource sharing is the fundamental feature of computing and data grid applications. In this paper, we address the issue of multi-domain optical network resource sharing and present a network management system designed for end-to-end lightpath provisioning across multiple independently managed domains. Our network management system, called user-controlled lightpath provisioning (UCLP) system, is based on the grid services concept and built on the Jini and JavaSpaces technologies. The UCLP system provides a traffic engineering approach to control network infrastructure for computing and data grid applications.
