Abstract
We address the issue of survivability in statistically shared elastic optical networks. Statistical sharing allows variable data rates, i.e. base rates and peak rates, for a single connection in the network. Our goal is to minimize the blocking of the arriving connection requests, while at the same time maximizing the chance that existing connection requests are able to switch from base rate to peak rate. Furthermore, the base rate of the connection requests should be survivable to any single link failure.
