      Spectrum allocation for time-frequency fragmentation aware algorithm
      Input:arriving connection request Ris,d,b,tb,te
      Output:spectrum allocation
      1)Plan k shortest paths as P with KSP algorithm for connection request R

      2)For path Pj from j=1 to j=4 do

      3)For link L form i=1 to i=l do

      If available block can be found for connection request R
      4)Compute number of FSs and HTSs requested by connection R using Eq.(1) and Eq.(3) respectively

      5)Find available blocks Bi in link l of Pj

      6)For available spectrum block Bi from i=1 to i=s

      7)Compute time domain fragmentation metric and frequency domain fragmentation metric using all available bocks in link l using Eq.(4) and Eq.(5)

      8)Compute probability of time domain and frequency domain fragmentation using Eqs.(6) ~(9)

      9)Endfor

      10)Finally,value of this position is calculated according to Eq.(10) and stored in value set F
      11)Break

      12)Else

      13)Find next path

      14)If j==4

      15)Break request

      16)Break

      17)Endif
      18)Endif
