摘要
目的
2
全光脊叶（AOSL）数据中心网络（DCN）采用由多级波长选择开关（WSS）级联的架构，波长易在WSS的端口处出现冲突，导致光通道建立失败，从而严重影响了网络的频谱使用效率。为解决这一问题，可以在其脊层WSS的输入端口处放置包含若干个可调谐波长转换器（TWC）的模块，进行任意波长之间的转换，提高网络灵活性。然而，这将导致AOSL DCN的组网成本极大增加。为此，文章希望通过提出有限波长转换AOSL DCN架构在网络性能与组网成本之间找到平衡。
方法
2
文章提出了两种有限波长转换方案，包括部分端口允许波长转换和部分波长允许转换。其中，部分端口允许波长转换是只在部分脊层WSS前放置TWC模块，且各模块均可实现全波长转换；而部分波长允许转换则在全部脊层WSS前放置TWC模块，且各模块仅允许特定波长转换。此外，文章也针对这两种网络架构的静态光通道业务部署问题，提出了相应的路由、波长和时隙分配（RWTA）算法。
结果
2
仿真结果表明，文章提出的两种网络架构都能在总业务完成时间（TCT）和总WSS重配次数等方面获得接近具备全波长转换能力的AOSL DCN性能。
结论
2
文章所提有限波长转换AOSL DCN在降低组网成本的同时有效保障了网络的性能。
Abstract
Objective
2
The wavelength conflict of different optical channels tends to occur in the All-Optical Spine-Leaf (AOSL) Data Center Network (DCN) that adopts a multi-stage Wavelength Selective Switches (WSS) cascading. This will cause a large number of service requests to be blocked
thus significantly influencing the spectral utilization efficiency of the DCN. To address this issue
Tunable Wavelength Conversion (TWC) modules can be used in the AOSL DCN to enable the conversion of each wavelength to any other wavelength whenever wavelength conflict occurs. However
this will also significantly increase the total cost of the AOSL DCN. Therefore
this paper aims to find a balance between network performance and networking cost by developing the AOSL DCNs with limited wavelength conversion.
Methods
2
In this paper
we propos two different architectures for the AOSL DCN with limited wavelength conversion
including wavelength conversion allowed on partial WSS and wavelength conversion allowed on specific wavelengths
respectively. The former one deploys the TWC modules with full wavelength conversion capacity
merely for certain spine WSSs. In contrast
the latter one deploys TWC modules that are configured to permit specific wavelength conversion for all of the Spine WSSs. In addition
this paper also proposes corresponding Routing
Wavelength and Time Slot Allocation (RWTA) algorithms for the static lightpath service deployment problem of these two AOSL DCN architectures.
Results
2
Simulation results show that both network architectures proposed in this paper can achieve performance close to that of the all-optical spine-leaf data center network with full wavelength conversion capabilities in terms of overall Task Completion Time (TCT) and total WSS reconfiguration times.
Conclusion
2
Our AOSL DCN proposed with limited wavelength conversion effectively guarantees network performance while reducing the networking costs.
