Dynamic multicasting using traffic grooming in WDM optical split light trail networks

Abstract

Multicasting is inevitable in the advent of the age of online video streaming. Light trail, the unidirectional optical bus, enhances multicasting by facilitating sub wavelength granularity. Splitting a light trail into segments increases the bandwidth utilization. To remove the overburden of the auxiliary graph of the existing works lead the motivation of the proposed heuristic algorithm known as Dynamic Multicast Traffic Grooming and Split Light Trail Assignment (DMTG-SLTA), which further aims to reduce the blocking probability and other network resources while satisfying the dynamic connection requests. Simulation results are verified though numerical analysis and compared to the existing well known algorithms, thereby concluding the proposed work to be successful only after minimizing its computational complexity.
