Defragmentation-as-a-Service (DaaS): How beneficial is it?
Sandeep Kumar Singh, Wolfgang Bziuk, and Admela Jukan

TL;DR
This paper evaluates Defragmentation-as-a-Service (DaaS) in elastic optical networks, demonstrating that its benefits depend on defragmentation frequency, network load, and resource availability.
Contribution
It provides an analysis of how defragmentation frequency and network conditions impact DaaS effectiveness in elastic optical networks.
Findings
Optimal defragmentation rate varies with load and resources.
Defragmentation improves network performance under certain conditions.
The benefit of DaaS is context-dependent.
Abstract
We analyze Defragmentation-as-a-Service (DaaS) in elastic optical networks and show that the positive effect of defragmentation depends on the rate at which it is performed, load (or, call arrival rates) and the available resources.
