Tutorial Abstract:
This tutorial will present the state-of-the-art in the field
of "Optical networks" and emphasize the relevance of optical
networks to Future Internet architectures. Optical networks
encompass traditional networks operating on optical fiber as
well as wavelength division multiplexed (WDM) networks. The
topics which will be covered in this tutorial include optical
communication basics, optical network design, optical network
modeling, routing and wavelength assignment algorithms, traffic
grooming, optical network survivability and optical network
simulation tools. The tutorial will cover the role of optical
networks for wide area, metro area and access networks.
