We compare three approaches to react on dynamics in the IP traffic over time, FUFL, DUFL and DUDL. They provide different levels of freedom in adjusting the routing of lightpaths in the WDM layer and the routing of demands in the IP layer. Using MILP models based on three realistic network topologies as well as realistic demands, power, and cost values, we show that already a simple monitoring of the lightpath utilization in order to deactivate empty line cards (FUFL) brings substantial benefits. The most significant savings, however, are achieved by rerouting traffic in the IP layer (DUFL), which allows emptying and deactivating lightpaths together with the corresponding line cards. A sophisticated reoptimization of the virtual topologies and the routing in the optical domain for every demand scenario (DUDL) yields nearly no additional profits in the considered networks. These results are independent of the ratio between the demand and capacity granularities, the time scale and the network topology, and show little dependency on the demand structure.}, language = {en} } @article{IdzikowskiOrlowskiRaacketal.2011, author = {Idzikowski, Filip and Orlowski, Sebastian and Raack, Christian and Woesner, Hagen and Wolisz, Adam}, title = {Dynamic routing at different layers in IP-over-WDM networks - Maximizing energy savings}, series = {Optical Switching and Networking, Special Issue on Green Communications}, journal = {Optical Switching and Networking, Special Issue on Green Communications}, year = {2011}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{IdzikowskiOrlowskiRaacketal.2010, author = {Idzikowski, Filip and Orlowski, Sebastian and Raack, Christian and Woesner, Hagen and Wolisz, Adam}, title = {Saving energy in IP-over-WDM networks by switching off line cards in low-demand scenarios}, series = {Proceedings of the 14th conference on Optical network design and modeling}, booktitle = {Proceedings of the 14th conference on Optical network design and modeling}, publisher = {IEEE Press}, address = {Piscataway, NJ, USA}, pages = {42 -- 47}, year = {2010}, language = {en} }
