The Optimal Multiple Multicast Problem (OMMP) on wavelength division multiplexing (WDM) ring networks without wavelength conversion is considered in this paper. When the physical network and the set of multicast requests are given, OMMP is the problem that selects a suitable path (or paths) and wave...
