Wavelength Division Multiplexing (WDM) technology evolved to utilize effectively the enormous bandwidth of optical ยฎber. In circuitswitched WDM networks data transfer between a given pair of source and destination nodes takes place by using a lightpath. A lightpath is an optical channel having a sin
## Abstract In wavelengthโdivision multiplexing (WDM) optical networks, the bandwidth request of a traffic stream can be much lower than the capacity of a lightpath. Efficiently grooming lowโspeed connections onto highโcapacity lightpaths will improve the network throughput and reduce the network c
