On the dualization of hypergraphs with bounded edge-intersections and other related classes of hypergraphs

Given a finite set V , and integers k ý1 and r ý0, let us denote by the class of hypergraphs with ( k,r )-bounded intersections, i.e. in which the intersection of any k distinct hyperedges has size at most r . We consider the problem : given a ...
Return-to-zero transmitter for WDM-PONs using incoherent-light-injected Fabry-Perot laser diodes
Special issue on next-generation broadband optical access network technologies

Thanks to colorless operation and cost-effectiveness, an incoherent-light-injected Fabry-Perot laser diode (FP-LD) is considered as a promising optical transmitter for wavelength-division-multiplexed (WDM) passive optical networks (PONs). However, the ...
Efficient algorithms for wavelength rerouting in WDM multi-fiber unidirectional ring networks

In this article, we consider wavelength rerouting in wavelength-routed Wavelength-Division Multiplexed (WDM) multi-fiber unidirectional ring networks with circuit switching. The wavelength continuity constraint imposed by WDM networks leads to poor ...
