Abstract
Reliability is crucial for high speed backbone networks. Protection mechanisms are therefore critical in the design of infrastructure networks. This paper investigates a new multi- path provisioning model with availability-guarantee on networks where events of up to two simultaneous link failures can occur. A service level agreement (SLA) which mandates service availability must be met even during network failure situations. We present a mathematical formulation to perform optimal capacity allocation in both GMPLS Self-protecting Multi-path (SPM) environment and SONET/SDH networks. Linear Programming (LP) and Integer Linear Programming (ILP) models are formulated in this study to provide multi-path protection mechanisms on MPLS and SONET/SDH networks. Network Service Providers (NSP) could use this mathematical model to design a network with certain availability requirement according to a priori defined SLAs to accommodate network traffic under dual link failure scenarios.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
