Topics therein include: Optical fibers; Optical amplifier technology; Optical transponder modules; Optical transponder components; Fiber nonlinearities; DSP for optical transponders; FEC for optical transponders; Modulation formats; Advanced techniques for capacity scaling; Wavelength division multiplexing; Space division multiplexing; Optical node architectures; Optical switching approaches; Components for optical switching
Area B: Core Backbone Networks. Topics therein include: Optical core network architecture; Routing and wavelength (spectrum) assignment; Flex-grid and elastic optical networks; Resilient/survivable optical networks; Traffic grooming; Dynamic control of optical networks; Cross layer design; Optical network virtualization; Metro networks architectures; Energy efficiency in optical networks; Packet-optical network convergence; Optical packet and burst-switched networks; Cognitive techniques (e.g. AI) in optical network design; Optical network control and management; Software-defined networking
Area C: Access Networks and other applications supporting Human Interaction. Topics therein include: Current TDM PON flavors and emerging/advanced PON flavors; Long-reach PON and access/metro integration; Digital optical front-haul technologies and architectures; Analog optical front-haul technologies and architectures; Optical solutions supporting advanced 5G functionalities (e.g. beamforming); Fiber-wireless convergence; Free-space optical links for terrestrial and satellite communication networks; Visible Light Communications for in-house/building networks; Optical communications for avionics and autonomous vehicles; Emerging industry standards
Area D: Optical solutions for Datacenter Networks and High Performance Computing. Topics therein include: Evolving requirements and trends of datacenters networks; Evolving requirements and trends of HPC; Inter-Datacenter interconnection networks; Intra-Datacenter network architectures; Photonic solutions for DCI and HPC interconnects; System aspects for optical interconnect transceivers; Optical switching for data center networks; Optics in routers/switches; On-board and on-chip optics
The series features the following types of books:
- Intermediate to advanced level textbooks or reference books for graduate and undergraduate courses;
- Expository authored or edited books that extend and unify our knowledge and understanding of particular areas;
- Handbooks and professional reference works that redefine "state-of-the-art," emphasizing expository surveys, completely new advances, and combinations thereof;
- Encyclopedias containing articles dealing with the entire range of knowledge in the field or its specialty subtopics; and
- Authored and edited research monographs that make substantial contributions to new knowledge in specialty subtopics.
