NOBEL Phase 2 Kick-Off Meeting WP3 „Burst/packet networks for extended long term scenarios“ Introduction Gert Eilenberger, Turin, 28.-29.03.06 NOBEL Plenary March 28 1
WP3: Burst/packet networks for extended long term scenarios WP3 still active for OBS/OPS New WP3 = old WP3 + some work on node architectures from old WP6 • Internet/data traffic is dominating the transport networks • IP is common basis for future services • NOBEL ext. long term scenarios based on bursts/packets to be fully adapted to IP • DWDM transmission and transparency remain key technologies • New IP transport networks and nodes, new Layer 2 switching solutions • Increased role of control plane: interaction IP - bursts/packets - WDM layers • End-to-end QoS: towards carrier grade IP transport • Costs: Reduce switching of transit traffic @ IP level, shrink layer hierarchies NOBEL Plenary March 28 2
WP3 – Evolution to Phase 2 NOBEL Plenary March 28 3
WP3 Key Achievements in Phase 1 • Data Plane: Definition of requirements and traffic profiles for burst/packet networks and nodes • Data Plane: Various solutions for burst, packet and hybrid network architectures (dimensioning, performance) • Control Plane: Concepts on architectures and functions specific for burst/packet networks (routing, QoS, GMPLS) • Requirements and assessment of technologies for optical and opto-electronic burst/packet switching solutions • Evolution trends • … contained in >770 pages of deliverables • … 18 publications • … 1 Patent application NOBEL Plenary March 28 4
WP3 Objectives and Activities Activity 3.1 - Architectures for future advanced burst/packet networks • Describe evolution scenarios from wavelength switched networks (NOBEL medium and long term scenarios) to burst/packet switched optical networks: exploit improved statistical multiplexing for lower overall port count to achieve lower cost. • Develop and evaluate network and node architectures based on the opto-electronic solutions drafted by NOBEL WP3 to cope with data traffic profiles evolution (connectionless, bursty traffic, based on results from WP1 and WP2) and traffic volume increase (>10 Tbit/s throughput per node) • Develop optical burst/packet switching techniques for high throughput core networks (e.g. terabit routers) and flexible, effective metro networks adopting data centric protocols (e.g. GEth) and assess transparent optical wavelength/burst/ packet switching technologies to reduce O/E/O conversions and other electronic processing for reduced overall cost (in cooperation with WP5 cost studies on technologies) • Elaborate possible extensions and/or evolution of standards • A3.1 lead: ASEL (Gert Eilenberger) NOBEL Plenary March 28 5
WP3 Objectives and Activities Activity 3.2 - Control and management aspects of burst/packet networks • Specify control plane extensions specific to burst/packet techniques to allow their inclusion in an integrated GMPLS control plane (link to WP4) • Define and assess novel network control & management functions (covering routing, multi-layer traffic engineering, performance monitoring, protection, restoration etc.) adapted for optical burst/packet networks • Provide QoS support in the burst/packet layer (new layer 2 network services and service classes, emphasis on mapping, reservation, allocation, signalling etc.) • A3.2 lead: UPC NOBEL Plenary March 28 6
WP3: Burst/packet networks for extended long term scenarios Deliverables • D3.1: "Architectures and preliminary definition of specific CP and MP functions for hybrid opto-electronic burst/packet networks" (M8) • Type: R Dissemination level: PP (Editor: FhG-HHI) • D3.2 : "Definition of specific CP and MP functions for hybrid opto-electronic burst/packet networks including end-to-end QoS" (M20) • Type: R Dissemination level: RE (Editor: Siemens) • D3.3: "Final report on architectures, evolution scenarios and feasibility studies on opto-electronic burst/packet switching networks and nodes" (M24) • Type: R Dissemination level: PP (Editor: ASEL) NOBEL Plenary March 28 7
