Riassunto:

The early 21st century is the age of networked information, where more than ever in the history of technological progress, society's reliance on communication networks for health care, education, scientific data transfer, commerce and many other endeavours dominates everyday life. We are facing quotidianly progressing developments in communication techniques, the rapid implementation of new technologies, a standardization process, emerging markets and carriers in permanent motion. This text comprises the proceedings of the Fifth Working Conference on Optical Network Design and Modelling, which was sponsored by the International Federation for Information Processing (IFIP). Presenting progress made in optical network architectures, design, operation and management, the conference took place in Vienna, Austria in February 2001. In the tradition of the previous conferences (Athens '00, Paris '99, Rose '98, and Vienna '97), which brought together university researchers, technology leaders and network operators, this book addresses new optical network engineering aspects to be pursued, implemented, and discovered.

Informazioni sull?autore: Admela Jukan is an assistant professor with the Institute of Communication Networks at the Vienna University of Technology. She has engaged in a variety of optical network research projects, and is the author of more than 30 scientific papers in the field. She coordinates annually the IFIP Working Conference on Optical Network Design and Modelling.
