This paper shows the solution of a multiobjective scheme for multicast transmissions in MPLS networks with a GMLS optical backbone using evolutive algorithms. It has not been showed models that optimize one or more parameters integrating these two types of networks. Because the proposed scheme is a NP-Hard problem, an algorithm has been developed to solve the problem on polynomial time. The main contributions of this paper are the proposed mathematical model and the algorithm to solve it.

This paper provides an overview on efficient algorithms for multicasting in optical networks supported by Wavelength Division Multiplexing (WDM) with limited wavelength conversion. We classify the multicast problems according to off-line and on-line in both reliable and unreliable networks. In each problem class, we present efficient algorithms for multicast and multiple multicast and show their performance. We also present efficient schemes for dynamic multicast group membership updating. We conclude the paper by showing possible extension of the presented algorithms for QoS provision.
