Abstract

For pt.I see ibid., vol.6, no.3, p.12-27, 1992. A survey of wavelength-division-multiplexing (WDM)-based local lightwave networks is presented. The general characteristics of multihop systems are discussed, and various multihop approaches are reviewed. The construction of optimal structures based on minimizing the maximum link flow and optimizations based on minimization of the mean network packet delay are also reviewed. Regular topologies that have been studied as candidates for multihop lightwave networks, including the perfect shuffle, the de Bruijn graph, the toroid, and the hypercube, are discussed. Near-optimal node placement algorithms and shared-channel multihop systems are also discussed. >
