| Abstract | An all-optical approach to achieve finer bandwidth granularity is to time division multiplex low capacity circuits on each wavelength channel and to switch time-wavelength slots within the network. In such a Time-Wavelength-Switched- Network (TWSN), the Time-Wavelength-Space-Routers (TWSRs) are configured to change their routing pattern on a time slot basis. Another kind of time slotted network proposed in the literature is the Time-Wavelength-Interleaved Network (TWIN), which eliminates time switching within the network by using a non-reconfigurable core and an intelligent edge utilizing a fast tunable laser to emulate fast switching. A drawback of the TWIN network is that it assigns a unique wavelength to each node in the network. Thus it requires a total of W = N wavelengths for an N-node network and hence is not scalable. In this paper we propose to design a wavelength-constrained (i.e., W < N) TWIN network with no switching (TWIN-NS) by using a multicasting strategy. We also propose a variant of the TWIN network which possesses switching capabilities only at the edge nodes (TWIN-ES), and compare the performances of these TWIN networks to that of the TWSN. We present integer linear programs and heuristic algorithms to solve the connection scheduling problem in the TWSN and the TWIN, and investigate the benefits of having a fast reconfigurable switch as opposed to a non-reconfigurable core. |

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.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
