Abstract

Computational intelligence techniques have been used to solve hard problems in optical networks, such as the routing and wavelength assignment problem, the design of the physical and the logical topology of these networks, and the placement of some high cost devices along the network when it is necessary, such as regenerators and wavelength converters. In this chapter, the authors concentrate on the application of computational intelligence to solve the impairment-aware routing and wavelength assignment problem. They present a brief survey on this topic and a detailed description and results for two applications of computational intelligence, one to solve the wavelength assignment problem with an evolutionary strategy approach and the other to tackle the routing problem using ant colony optimization.
