Summary:
WDM Planner is an open-source software for Wavelength Division Multiplexing (WDM) network optimization. It can determine the information such as the shortest paths between network nodes, the minimum amount of wavelength channels required to support the traffic demands, the maximum amount of traffic that the current network resources can support, and the minimum amount of additional wavelength channels required to support all traffic. It is a Graphical User Interface (GUI) based software. Accordingly, it can be conveniently used to help in actual planning of the WDM network resource allocation or to demonstrate the basic concepts in WDM network design for teaching and training purposes.
