Abstract :
Summary form only given. In this study, we design and evaluate efficient wavelength reservation policies that specifically address the signaling overhead in distributed control. Our discussions will focus on the application of these policies to two representative approaches called path multiplexing and link multiplexing applicable to either TDM or WDM networks.
