Front cover: Result of optimization of a 25 node network with biconnectivity requirement. Traffic is uniform, duct prices equal the euclidean distance, fiber prices is 1/20th of duct prices. The node cost parameters are: Ccore 100, C port 1, and Cswitching 0 01. The nodes are distributed on a 1000 times 1000 square. The total network cost is 44080, where duct cost is 10718, fiber cost is 18037, and node cost is 15325. See Chapter 8.

Optical Network Solutions planning - performance - management Abstract
It has been a decisive goal in the compilation of this thesis to make us capable of realizing the future national and regional telecommunication networks in an efficient and resource optimal way. By future telecommunication network is assumed an all-optical network where the information in transit are kept optical and not converted into the optical domain. The focus is on the scientific results achieved throughout the Ph.D. period. Five subjects – all increasing the understanding of optical networks – are studied. Static wavelength routed optical networks are studied. Management on terms of lightpath allocation and design is considered. By using statistical models (simultaneous analysis of many networks) the correspondence between parameters determining the network topology and the performance of the optical network is found. These dependencies are important knowledge in the process of designing a network. It is also seen (statistically) found that the effect of wavelength converters on the performance of static wavelength routed optical networks is negligible. Dynamic wavelength routed
