Abstract
In this paper, we consider a fundamental traffic grooming problem in optical line-system: the number of total links with lengths and the max number of wavelengths (capacity) of each fiber are given, also a set of demands (jobs) and their routes are fixed so that the load of each link is known, the problem is to construct a set of fiber intervals so that the total fiber length is minimized (called Fiber Lengths Minimization problem or FLM for abbreviation). It is known that FLM problem is NP-complete in general. In this paper, we propose a 2-approximation algorithm, Longest Link interval First (LLF), which is better than existing best known bound.
