Abstract

Integrated routing is a routing approach to support the peer interconnection model in IP over WDM networks. To have a better network link load distribution and network usage in IP over WDM networks, in which network nodes may have the ability to handle traffic in fine granularities, it is important to take into account the combined routing at the IP and WDM layers. Based upon this, this paper develops an algorithm for integrated dynamic routing of bandwidth guaranteed paths in IP over WDM networks. For newly dynamic arriving requests, as the developed algorithm takes into account the combined topology and resource usage information at the IP and WDM layers, and the routing procedure makes full use of the statistic information of the users’ bandwidth requirement and considers carefully both the routing cost and the corresponding length of the routing path, thus a better link load balancing and network usage can be achieved. Simulation results show that the developed scheme performs well in terms of performance metrics such as the number of rejected demands and the network link load balancing.
