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} } @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} } @incollection{KosterOrlowskiRaacketal.2009, author = {Koster, Arie M.C.A. and Orlowski, Sebastian and Raack, Christian and Baier, Georg and Engel, Thomas and Belotti, Pietro}, title = {Branch-and-cut techniques for solving realistic two-layer network design problems}, series = {Graphs and Algorithms in Communication Networks}, booktitle = {Graphs and Algorithms in Communication Networks}, publisher = {Springer Berlin Heidelberg}, pages = {95 -- 118}, year = {2009}, language = {en} } @incollection{KosterOrlowskiRaacketal.2008, author = {Koster, Arie M.C.A. and Orlowski, Sebastian and Raack, Christian and Baier, Georg and Engel, Thomas}, title = {Single-layer Cuts for Multi-Layer Network Design Problems}, series = {Telecommunications Modeling Policy and Technology, also ZIB Report ZR-07-21}, booktitle = {Telecommunications Modeling Policy and Technology, also ZIB Report ZR-07-21}, publisher = {Springer}, address = {College Park, MD, U.S.A.}, pages = {1 -- 23}, year = {2008}, language = {en} } @misc{RaackKosterOrlowskietal., author = {Raack, Christian and Koster, Arie M.C.A. and Orlowski, Sebastian and Wess{\"a}ly, Roland}, title = {Capacitated network design using general flow-cutset inequalities}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:0297-zib-9576}, number = {07-14}, abstract = {This paper deals with directed, bidirected, and undirected capacitated network design problems.

The goal is to find a minimum cost installation of link and node hardware of both network layers such that traffic demands can be realized via grooming and a survivable routing. We present a mixed-integer programming formulation that takes many practical side constraints into account, including node hardware, several bitrates, and survivability against single physical node or link failures. This model is solved using a branch-and-cut approach with problem-specific preprocessing and cutting planes based on either of the two layers. On several realistic two-layer planning scenarios, we show that these cutting planes are still useful in the multi-layer context, helping to increase the dual bound and to reduce the optimality gaps.}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{RaackKosterOrlowskietal.2007, author = {Raack, Christian and Koster, Arie M.C.A. and Orlowski, Sebastian and Wess{\"a}ly, Roland}, title = {Capacitated network design using general flow-cutset inequalities}, series = {Proceedings of the INOC 2007, Spa, Belgium, also ZIB Report ZR-07-14}, booktitle = {Proceedings of the INOC 2007, Spa, Belgium, also ZIB Report ZR-07-14}, publisher = {International Network Optimization Conference}, address = {Spa, Belgium}, year = {2007}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{OrlowskiKosterRaacketal.2007, author = {Orlowski, Sebastian and Koster, Arie M.C.A. and Raack, Christian and Wess{\"a}ly, Roland}, title = {Two-layer Network Design by Branch-and-Cut featuring MIP-based Heuristics}, series = {Proceedings of the INOC 2007, Spa, Belgium, also ZIB Report ZR-06-47}, booktitle = {Proceedings of the INOC 2007, Spa, Belgium, also ZIB Report ZR-06-47}, publisher = {International Network Optimization Conference}, address = {Spa, Belgium}, year = {2007}, language = {en} }
