Résumé en anglais

The paper deals with a problem motivated by survivability issues in multilayer IP-over-WDM telecommunication networks. Given a set of traffic demands for which we know a survivable routing in the IP layer, our purpose is to look for the corresponding survivable topology in the WDM layer. The problem amounts to Multiple Steiner TSPs with order constraints. We propose an integer linear programming formulation for the problem and investigate the associated polytope. We also present new valid inequalities and discuss their facial aspect. Based on this, we devise a Branch-and-cut algorithm and present preliminary computational results.
