In this paper, we have proposed two energy-efficient heuristics: (i) CMDE-RSCA (crosstalk-aware), and (ii) FMDE-RSCA (fragmentation-aware) to address the issues of inter-core crosstalk, and fragmentation within the core respectively-to ensure quality transmission of the optical signal for dynamic traffic in space division multiplexing elastic optical network (SDM-EON), while maintaining survivability of the network against single link failure. These heuristics based on multipath based survivability are compared with three existing survivable approaches based on p-cycles and shared path in terms of bandwidth blocking, energy consumption, crosstalk, and fragmentation. Both these algorithms outperform all three existing heuristics in terms of all parameters. In between CMDE-RSCA and FMDE-RSCA, CMDE-RSCA leads to consume lesser energy, whereas FMDE-RSCA produces lesser bandwidth blocking.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
