Rachna Asthana, Yatindra Nath Singh, Wayne D. Grover · IEEE Communications Surveys & Tutorials · 2010
One of the most promising techniques of network protection i.e.p-Cycles (pre-planned, preconfigured-cycles) is reviewed in this paper. In this paper we provide a survey of the main work onp-cycles to date. The characteristics ofp-cycles and various types of protection provided by them are discussed. Finally, some possible extensions or enhancements of thep-cycle concept are discussed.
