ECOC 2012 22 - 26 September 2013ICC London ExCeL, UK • Hot topics: • Flexible and elastic networks • “Design of Flexible & Elastic Networks” • “Control Plane Solutions for Flexible and Elastic Optical Networks” • “Data Plane Solutions for Flexible and Elastic Optical Networks • Open Flow and Virtualization for optical networks. • Multicore fibres, passive and active few mode fibres and structured fibres. • Competingtechnologies for NG-PONsaccess • Nextevent:
FuNeMS 2013 • Suggestions for Keynotes, Panels, Workshops • All Optical network when? At what cost? what technological barriers; • Keynote/Panel (impact of the SDN model on DCN) • CaON is working on the TPC memberslist
Standardization • NGPON2 • OFDM isnotmatureenoughforstandardization • Multilayercoordination • The current standards need to be extended to suggest new configurations (e.g. new TE-Links) to the VNTM. • UNI is currently being extended • Multilayer PCE, VNTM and UNI can cooperate together. • Multidomainopticalnetworks • Hierarchical PCE is a goodcandidatetoenablemulti-domaininterworking. • Subwavelegths • Commomtermionolgy is being standardized at ITU-T • GMPLS extensions to be proposed at IETF • Flexgrid • ITU is standardizing the date plane • Frawework has just started in IETF… GMPLS/PCE extensions to be done. • IT and Optical network Convergence • First steps taken at IETF
