ABSTRACT:
A design system receives a configuration of the communication network wherein the configuration includes a plurality of nodes and a plurality of links interconnecting the nodes. The design system also receives a protection scheme for the communication network. The design system then processes the configuration and the protection scheme to determine placements of wavelength converters in at least one of the nodes.
