| Abstract | This paper attempts to find a new analytical framework to identify cost-effective topological architectures of optical cross-connect (OXC)-switched wavelength-division multiplexing (WDM) networks. To keep the analysis tractable, we first focus on regular networks and a deterministic uniform traffic model. Regular topologies with symmetries are good approximations of metropolitan area and local area networks but only a fair resemblance of wide area networks. We find that for a regular topology the minimum-hop distance, which is normally used for gauging the size of the network, is an important parameter in dimensioning switching resources. By setting up a first-order cost model and evaluating the tradeoff between network resources, we obtain closed form solutions for the optimal node degree and network cost. For network design under stochastic traffic, we study the worst case capacity dimensioning and blocking probability among the set of all possible stochastic traffic distributions with the same mean and variance. The analytical approach presented in this paper helps us gain insights of parametric dependency of an optimal network architecture on key network design parameters. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
