Abstract :
The paper provides an overview of the resilient schemes currently adopted in network architectures based on IP over Automatically Switched Optical Networks (ASONs)/Generalized Multiprotocol Label Switching (GMPLS) based optical networks, namely the Optical Internet. In addition it outlooks the raising challenges and possible solutions in implementing advanced resilient schemes capable of satisfying the requirements of the different applications carried by a single multi-layer network infrastructure.
