Sponsored
by the following IEEE Communications Society Technical Committees:
Communications Switching and Routing
Transmissions, Access, and Optical Systems
Computer Communications
Optical Networking
With the growing demands
for bandwidth, optical network deployment has secured its place in the
core of the Internet. It is expected that the use of optics will continue
to increase in order to meet the additional bandwidth requirements. This
Symposium stresses major advancements in optical networking in the area
of switching and routing, IP/WDM integration, QoS support, network control
and management, and traffic engineering.
This Symposium is
intended to provide a timely forum for exploratory research and practical
contributions from all around the world in the area of optical networking.
The objective of this event is to foster the exchange of information among
researchers in this fast-moving field. The program will include presentations
by distinguished researchers, speaking on recent advances in theory and
practice of optical networking. This symposium also intends to bring together
various optical network system developers to discuss the current status,
technical challenges, standards, fundamental issues, and future services
and applications in the form of workshops, business application sessions
and tutorials.
Topics
of interest include but not limited to:
- IP over WDM
- Generalized-MPLS
for Optical Networks
- Routing and Wavelength
Assignment Algorithms
- Optical Cross-connects
and Switches
- Optical Access
Networks
- Medium Access Control
