Optical Network Design and Planning (Optical Networks)
暫譯: 光學網路設計與規劃 (光學網路)

This book takes a pragmatic approach to deploying state-of-the-art optical networking, while also covering recent research results.  Algorithms and methodologies related to routing, regeneration, wavelength assignment, sub-rate traffic grooming, and protection are presented, with an emphasis on optical-bypass-enabled (or all-optical) networks.  The second edition includes coverage of:

•  Dynamic optical networking
•  Multi-domain networks
•  Flex-grid, gridless, and elastic optical networks
•  New physical-layer technology (e.g., coherent detection) and its impact on network design
• ROADM architectures and features, including the colorless, directionless, contentionless and gridless properties
• Algorithms for cloud computing
• Software-Defined Networking
• Energy efficiency

Numerous case studies are presented using three reference networks (the topology files for the networks are provided on a web site, for further studies by the reader).  Exercises and suggestions for further research have been added in the second edition, making the book suitable as the primary text for a graduate-level course.
