Abstract
The present disclosure provides a probabilistic framework that can calculate the probability of fulfilling demands for a given set of traffic flows. In some implementations, the probability of fulfilling demands can be based on the probability of infrastructure component failures, shared risk link groups derived from a cross-layer network topology, and traffic engineering (TE) considerations. The consideration of the cross-layer network topology enables the systems and methods described herein to account for the relationship between the physical and logical topologies.
