read "which is not mpls" a few more times.  than maybe read a bit on
gmpls and optical switching.  you may find
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Generalized_Multi-Protocol_Label_Switching
a reasonable place to start.
Ok, but does this still not pre-suppose that an appropriate physical
path that has sufficient available bandwidth/slots is already present?

not *a* physical path, but a swath of paths from which sufficient
capacity can be configured.  sadly, gmpls over optical has not yet
defied the laws of physics.
