Summary:
In order to achieve global-scale elastic optical networks, it is important to solve virtualized-elastic-regenerator (VER) placement, and routing and spectrum assignment (VER-PRSA) algorithm. This study proposes application method of the binary real coded firefly algorithm (BRCFF) to solve VER-PRSA problem. BRCFF is used for determining regenerating node candidates where zero or more VER is installed. We confirm that the proposed method decrease the total number of VERs in comparison with the conventional method.
