Riassunto

This book presents advances in the field of optical networks - specifically on research and applications in elastic optical networks (EON). The material reflects the authors’ extensive research and industrial activities and includes contributions from preeminent researchers and practitioners in optical networking. The authors discuss the new research and applications that address the issue of increased bandwidth demand due to disruptive, high bandwidth applications, e.g., video and cloud applications. The book also discusses issues with traffic not only increasing but becoming much more dynamic, both in time and direction, and posits immediate, medium, and long-term solutions throughout the text. The book is intended to provide a reference for network architecture and planning, communication systems, and control and management approaches that are expected to steer the evolution of EONs.

Dalla quarta di copertina

This book addresses challengesand potential solutions surrounding the dramatic yearly increases in bandwidthdemand. The editors discuss the predicament surrounding current growth, whichis predicted to continue because of the proliferation of disruptive, highbandwidth applications like video and cloud applications. They also discussthat in addition to growth, traffic will become much more dynamic, both in timeand direction. The contributors show how large changes in traffic magnitudeduring a 24-hour period can be observed, as day-time business users have verydifferent demands to evening-time residential customers, and how this playsinto addressing future challenges. In addition, they discuss potentialsolutions for the issues surrounding situations where multiple content andcloud service providers offer competing services, causing the traffic directionto become more dynamic. The contributors discuss that although the WDMtransponder technology can be upgraded to 100Gb/s in the short to medium term, andto 1Tb/s in the longer term, bandwidth-variable transponders that can adjusttheir bandwidth quickly and under software control are needed. In addition,they posit that by using a flexible grid the optical spectrum can be used in amore flexible way. The book comprehensively addresses all these topics and aimsat providing a reference for the coming years for researchers, engineers, andpractitioners working in the field. Planning and algorithms for elastic opticalnetworks (EONs) are presented, including mathematical models and algorithms.

• Discusses the evolution from WDM to flexible and the new applications that EONs can support

• Shows how in the data plane, transmission in EON will cover the next generation of bandwidth variable transponders, novel modulation formats, mitigation of impairments, and node architectures

• Presents extensions to GMPLs and OpenFlow for EONS in the control plane, extensions to GMPLS and OpenFlow for EONs, and the concept of in-operation planning
