Agenda
In the recent past, optical networks had evolved as the provider for high bandwidth pipe in Internet. Telecom vendors across the world have already started to deploy optical data rates in the order of 100 Gb/s and beyond. These next generation, long distance optical networks would require rapid provisioning of connections, fast protection schemes against failures, quality of transmission (QoT), and fully dynamic wavelength switching. Redesigning the complex layered network architecture would be necessary to provide the service level agreements (SLAs), to improve energy efficiency, and to decrease the cost per bit for switching traffic. This talk discusses our efforts to achieve such clean-slate network design, which will enable a programmable optical layer.
