Additional information

Wayne D. Grover is the author of “Mesh-based Survivable Networks: Options and Strategies for Optical, MPLS, SONET and ATM Networking,” published by Prentice-Hall; Professor in the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering at the University of Alberta; and Chief Scientist for Network Systems at TRLabs. He has 25 years of experience in industry and academia and issued patents on 26 topics and over 100 other refereed publications. He is an IEEE Fellow “for contributions to survivable and self-organizing broadband networks” and Fellow of the Engineering Institute of Canada. His current interests are focused on p-cycles and the protected working capacity envelope (PWCE) concept, both topics which he originated. He teaches courses on transport network technology, survivable network design, introductory communications, and telecommunication systems at the University of Alberta.

David Tipper is an Associate Professor in the Department of Information Science and Telecommunications at the University of Pittsburgh. He also holds the position of Professor II of Informatics at Molde College in Norway. Prior to joining Pitt in 1994, he was an Associate Professor of Electrical and Computer Engineering at Clemson University in Clemson, SC. His current research interests are network design and traffic restoration procedures for survivable networks, network control techniques, and performance analysis.
