Seminar Series: Technology Trends 2004
Semantic Web
The rapid growth of the Internet and the relentless need for more
communication capacity has fueled a dramatic explosion in Optical
Networking in the past decade. Since its beginnings in the 1960s,
the fibre revolution has now reached full swing, with millions of
strand miles of fibre installed in the past few years, across continents,
under oceans, and inside homes.
This talk presents a general overview of current optical networking
systems in the long-haul, metro, and access network segments. Past
accomplishments, current research opportunities, and future directions
for the evolution of optical networking will be highlighted.
