A regular logical topology requires little processing time for routing purposes which may be a desirable property for high-speed networks. Asymmetric bilayered ShuffleNet, proposed by us as a logical topology, can be used to a wavelength division multiplexing ring network to increase the network capacity compared to ShuffleNet. In this paper, asymmetric bilayered ShuffleNet is imbedded on a wavelength division multiplexing ring with the objective of minimizing the total number of wavelengths assigned.
