Reachability matrices spanning multiple domains in an optical network
A method of providing routes through heterogeneous subsystems in an optical network is disclosed, which includes generating, using a processing device, a reachability matrix based on subnetwork information; and generating, using the processing device, a topology associated with the optical network using the reachability matrix. The method also includes determining, using the processing device, a shortest path through the optical network using the reachability matrix and a cost model graph; and displaying, using a graphical user interface, subsystems associated with the shortest path, regeneration locations associated with the shortest path, wavelengths associated with the shortest path, the topology, and the shortest path. Corresponding apparatus and computer-readable storage media are also disclosed.
