TL;DR: A concept of a novel adaptation scheme in SLICE called distance-adaptive spectrum resource allocation, which can save more than 45 percent of required spectrum resources for a 12-node ring network, is presented.

TL;DR: The proposed bandwidth squeezed restoration scheme takes advantage of elastic bandwidth variation in the optical paths of SLICE to enable spectrally efficient and highly survivable network recovery for best-effort traffic as well as bandwidth guaranteed traffic, while satisfying the service level specifications required from the client layer networks.

TL;DR: A concept of spectrally-efficient optical networking with distance-adaptive spectral allocation by adjusting the number of modulation levels is presented and demonstrated by routing 40 Gb/s optical paths using short-reach, narrow-spectrum 16APSK and long-reach QPSK.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors proposed a novel restoration scheme in the spectrum-sliced elastic optical network, which achieves a high level of survivability for the traffic that is subject to the committed service profile.

TL;DR: This work proposes a spectrally-efficient super-wavelength-path routing in SLICE by selecting a set of subcarrier numbers and modulation levels according to path distances, and demonstrates 420 Gb/s path routing using short-reach 14-subcarrier 8-APSK and long-reach 21-Subcarrier QPSK.
