Abstract--In this paper, we propose a multi-segment optical
network framework as a tool to solve a generalized category of
problems related to end-to-end provisioning over interconnected
optical networks. This network model is referred to as multi-
segment network model, where the notion of networking
segments refers to any portion of an optical network that
requires particular consideration for control, e.g., sub-networks
characterized by logical segments of the optical control plane
that can refer to different levels of traffic aggregation, different
administrative areas, or different transport layer technologies.
Based on the multi-segment framework, we developed routing
