Abstract :
The use of Monte Carlo means to create, simulate and evaluate WDM networks has been shown. The 8-node Cross-Cube network discovered by Monte Carlo means was found to require fewer jumps than other tested network architectures. This is to be expected, as the tool was optimizing for fewest number of jumps. Both the mesh and cube architecture were found to be more flexible in terms of different redundant connections; however, the tool could be adjusted to optimize for redundancy if desired.
