AbstractThe concern on ATM infrastructure network design becomes realistic since many ATM networks enter the field-trial phase. Because of very high-speed in transmission of ATM backbone network, the survivable consideration is stressed in the designing process. This thesis investigates the dimensioning of such ATM network, confirming to self-healing strategy on failed rerouting traffic and under the relationship of failure events between ATM network and SDH transport layer. In the focus, the optimum spare capacity distribution is needed for the success of self-healing restoration and traffic backlog works off. Additionally, the singlepath Virtual Path routing is chosen in observation that ATM infrastructure network serves several logical ATM subnetworks. The problem formulation is to minimize the summation of cost for installing the spare capacity and cost of lost Virtual Path bandwidth, caused by VP failed events. This optimizing problem has been solved using Genetic Algorithm(GA). The GA heuristic search overcomes the issue of differentiable condition for objective function and found the near optimum solution. The results of 4-ATM node and 10-ATM node network scenarios are presented to illustrate this solution method.
