METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR RELIABILITY-AWARE EMBEDDING OF A VIRTUAL NETWORK ONTO AN ELASTIC OPTICAL NETWORK

摘要

The disclosed systems, structures, and methods are directed to a method for embedding the virtual network onto the elastic optical network comprising embedding the plurality of virtual nodes onto the plurality of substrate optical nodes in accordance with the plurality of location constraints provisioning the primary bandwidth demand associated with one of the plurality of virtual links connecting a source virtual node to a destination virtual node onto a plurality of disjoint substrate paths connecting a source substrate optical node and a destination substrate optical node, and embedding the one of the plurality of virtual links connecting the source virtual node to the destination virtual node onto the plurality of disjoint substrate paths connecting the source substrate optical node and the destination substrate optical node.
