Abstract :
Optical Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (O-OFDM) is an attractive transport technology for virtualization of optical networks. In this paper, we propose a novel Integer Linear Programming (ILP) formulation and a scalable efficient heuristic algorithm for online virtualization in an optical network utilizing O-OFDM.
