As technology conforms to persistent evolution of civilization, especially the advent of Big-Data Era, those electricity-based networks prove incapable of meeting soaring standards of reliable communication. Electricity’s intrinsic characters, such as clock skew, high power consumption, magnetic fields interference, cause the bottleneck in network performance and scalability, not to mention the ever-growing global telecommunication business. A popular troubleshooting idea is to replace electricity with light, that is, to build optical networks. Photons are superior to electrons in message transmitting for low delay, no interference, less power consumption and huge bandwidth. All optical networks (no electrical components contained) are ideal models that bet to be excellent, while no all optical network is running so far as the result of photons’ ineffective storage. Thus, this paper addressed only opto-electronic networks that store data with electrons and transmit data with photons. WDM (Wavelength Division Multiplexing) technology, which concocts messages into optical waves with distinct wavelengths, is adopted in most opto-electronic networks to improve throughput for the feature of parallel transmission in a single fiber as no interference is triggered. Communication steps in WDM optical networks are periodically sequenced as: firstly, route selection, that is to determine an appropriate path, also called lightpath, for each source-destination node pair under certain routing strategy; then wavelength assignment, that is to properly affiliate each lightpath with an optical wave that meets two constraints, wavelength continuity constraint (the wavelength used in a lightpath should be continuously the same) and distin
