Grooming Telecommunications Network: Optimization Replicas and Techniques

The rapid expansion of the use of internet in the last decade has been made feasible largely by optical networks with high bandwidth and consistency. This paper explores the meaning of grooming, the methodological context in which it can be applied. An innovative nomenclature incarcerates useful aspects of grooming problems and is used to review publications on traffic-engineering and optimization problem class. The paper proposed an efficient traffic grooming model for all optical networks. The model has low complexity and it can be easily implemented for traffic grooming problems.
