Abstract

We consider the problem of routing in networks employing all optical routing technology. In these networks, messages travel in optical form and switching is
performed directly on the optical signal. By using different wavelengths, several messages may use the same edge concurrently, However, messages assigned the same wavelength must use disjoint paths, or else be routed at separate rounds. No buffering at intermediate nodes is available. Thus, routing in this setting entails assigning wavelengths, paths, and time slots for the different messages.
