Abstract :
This study investigates the use of information summary (IS) applied to the advertised available resources to reduce the amount of link state advertisement (LSA) overhead, which is necessary to achieve distributed dynamic routing in WDM networks. As illustrated in the study, if carefully designed, the resulting IS-LSA protocol can significantly contain the size of the advertised data set without excessively affecting the network performance, i.e., the blocking probability caused by routing decisions based on incomplete link state information.
