Abstract :
We develop a model for evaluating the blocking probability of various connection management protocols for wavelength-routed optical networks with dynamic lightpath establishment. The model characterizes both blocking due to insufficient resources and blocking due to multiple interfering connection requests. We then use the analytical model to compare two connection management schemes, one which utilizes source-initiated reservation, and another which utilizes destination-initiated reservation
