| Abstract | Ring networks have drawn wide attention due to token ring and FDDI standards. This paper presents a scalable multihop WDM passive ring architecture for local-area or metropolitan area networks. The network consists of optical interfaces, which are connected into a ring by fibers. Each optical interface is completely passive and unpowered. We apply the "multihop" principle by introducing a regular multi-loop ring called "wheel" as the optical connectivity and embedding it onto the single-loop fiber ring. Each network access node requires only a small number of fixed-tuned transceivers and an ATM switch. The network can incrementally scale up from a smaller ring to a large ring by deploying more access nodes and optical interfaces. When scaling up the network, not only the number of wavelengths required is small but also no more wavelengths are required. This architecture has an excellent ability for alternative routing and optimal wavelength reuse. We present three distributed adaptive wavelength routing algorithms and an optimal wavelength assignment algorithm which minimizes the number of wavelengths used. A method yielding the lowest possible call blocking probability for an "ideal" network with a fixed number of transceivers per node is presented and used as a yardstick to evaluate the proposed networks. The numerical results show that the architecture is very efficient. |

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.
