Abstract
Recent developments; in multiwavelength all-optical network technologies have attracted world-wide attention1. To meet diverse needs of future communications networks which will handle a wide range of traffic patterns and user-bandwidth requests, all-optical multiwavelength transport networks must be reconfigurable if they are to take full advantage of the aggregate-bandwidth, flexible bandwidth-management, and service-provisioning potential offered by such a system.
