Minimum Cost Topology Optimisation of the Cost 239 European Optical Network

Abstract

A genetic algorithm is presented for the minimum-cost topology optimisation of the COST 239 European Optical Network (EON). The algorithm makes use of real traffic data where possible, and produces a network amongst twenty given nodes with two-shortest-node-disjoint routing between node pairs. Both routes are fully resourced, guaranteeing the network will survive a single component failure. The results are compared with the earlier ‘hand-crafted’ EON topology.
