Abstract :
In this paper, we study the problem of multiple failures in WDM networks and propose a new heuristic algorithm called shared multi-sub-backup-paths reprovisioning (SMR) to improve the survivable performance. Compared with previous algorithms, the survivable performance of SMR in multiple failures can be significantly improved.
