.... wavelength allocation 1 Introduction Recent advances in wavelength division multiplexing (WDM) and optical switching make it possible to contemplate the deployment of wavelength routing networks that will provide backbone connectivity over wide area distances and at very high data capacities [8, 4]. A wavelength routing network consists of wavelength routers and the fiber links that interconnect them [6, 11, 7] Wavelength routers are optical switches capable of routing a light signal at a given wavelength from any input port to any output port, making it possible to establish end to end ....

....of this work was presented at the IEEE INFOCOM 97 conference, Kobe, Japan, 1997. 1 Introduction Wavelength Division Multiplexing (WDM) is the most promising technology for bridging the gap between the speed of electronics and the virtually unlimited bandwidth available within the optical medium [8, 10]. The single hop WDM network architecture [14] is especially appealing because of the fact that, once information is transmitted as light in such a network, it will remain in the optical form until it reaches the destination. In a single hop network, both a transmitter at the source and a receiver ....

....are connected through a passive broadcast star coupler and communicate using transceivers tunable across the network bandwidth. This work was supported in part by NSF grant NCR 9701113. A significant amount of research effort has been devoted to the study of WDM architectures in recent years [4]. The performance analysis of these architectures has been typically carried out assuming uniform traffic and memoryless arrival processes [16, 3, 5] However, it has been established that, in order to study correctly the performance of a network, one needs to use models that capture the notion of ....

....could be realized by a satellite. Typically, current communications satellites have a capacity of 1 10 Gbit s [25] Commercial satellite communications services offer broadcast data rates up to 0.8 Gbit s at consumer electronics prices. Far more capacity is offered by fiber optical networks [12]. The test bed of the All Optical Networking Consortium, for example, has a capacity of 1 Tbit s and has been demonstrated at 130 Gbit s (which was only limited by the number of sources available) On the other hand, tape libraries with capacities in the PByte range (1 PetaByte = 2 50 or about ....
