β¦ Synopsis
Lightwave networks based on wavelength division multiplex (WDM) technology can modify the logical configuration of a network by reassigning the wavelength of the transmitters and receivers at the nodes. When traffic is deviated, network performance, such as the maximum throughput and the average delay time, is improved by reassigning the set of nodes transmitting high load traffic to closer locations. In this paper, an algorithm for network reconfiguration is studied for a lattice-type multihop network. With the statistical quantities, such as average value and standard deviation of the load traffic as guidelines, the algorithm is evaluated. Further, by simulation, the validity of the evaluative method based on the statistical quantities is verified, and the effectiveness of the reconfiguration is demonstrated.

## Abstract In wavelength division multiplexing (WDM) star networks, the construction of the transmission schedule is a key issue, which essentially affects the network performance. Up to now, classic scheduling techniques consider the nodes' requests in a sequential service order. However, these a
A new class of protocols for WDM star networks is introduced. According to the proposed protocols, two or more stations share each wavelength and transmit their packets in a random access fashion.
