Abstract

We present a methodological framework for conceptual modeling of optical networks. The framework is targeted towards a larger scale initiative by us for designing a unified modeling language (UML) profile that can help with conceptual modeling of typical optical network design problems. While there are pieces of literature available that describe profiles for other application areas, there are no profiles for use in networking problems, in general. Our work is an important step forward to address this deficiency. Our proposed profile takes the existing UML notations and extends them to support the modeling of optical networks
