DICONET: future generation transparent networking with dynamic impairment awareness
نویسندگان
چکیده
Transparent networks are widely seen as the prime candidates for the core network technology of the future. These networks provide ultra high speed end-to-end connectivity with high quality of service and failure resiliency. A downside of transparency is the accumulation of physical impairments over long distances, which are difficult to mitigate using physical-layer techniques only, and the novel challenges in fault detection/localization. We present here the DICONET project, a set of techniques and algorithms implemented at multiple layers, culminating with the physical implementation of a transparent optical network on a testbed. DICONET consists of a set of impairment-aware network management algorithms, such as routing and wavelength assignment, monitoring, failure localization, rerouting, all integrated within a unified control plane, which extends known solutions to include the impairmentawareness of the underlying layers.

Optical networks form the foundation of today’s information infrastructure. Current generation optical networks consist largely of point-to-point electronically transmitted links which switch between nodes and repeaters. There is a trend in optical networking to move from the current generation opaque networks toward transparent networks. Transparent networks use only optical devices, eliminati...

In next generation networks, the introduction of intelligence and flexibility in mobile devices and network nodes appears as a promising solution to the high degree of variability in the telecommunication environment. The materialization of these concepts under the autonomic networking notion paves the way for introduction of awareness and adaptation capabilities in various layers of mobile dev...
متن کاملThe Future-Oriented Middleware Technology
over the last decade, middleware has emerged as an important architectural component in supporting the construction of distributed applications. However, the current generation of mainstream middleware is always based on the assumptions that distributed applications will run in a static setting. As a result, they fail to provide the appropriate support for the today’s networking environment. Ma...
متن کاملMachine Intelligence Techniques for Next-Generation Context-Aware Wireless Networks
The next generation wireless networks (i.e. 5G and beyond), which would be extremely dynamic and complex due to the ultra-dense deployment of heterogeneous networks (HetNets), poses many critical challenges for network planning, operation, management and troubleshooting. At the same time, generation and consumption of wireless data are becoming increasingly distributed with ongoing paradigm shi...
متن کاملDynamic multidimensional optical networking based on spatial and spectral processing.
The recent introduction of optical OFDM and spatial MIMO techniques has led to considerable increases in spectral efficiency and aggregate throughput for future optical networks. However, these spatial and spectral domains can also be exploited for next-generation elastic optical networking. In this paper, we introduce the first hierarchy for dynamic multidimensional spatial and spectral optica...
