            Abstract : 
We review recent development of energy-efficient, low-latency intra-data center network, emphasizing on intelligent flow control capability, which simultaneously supports both OPS and OCS on-demand on a 100-Gbps (25-Gbps × 4-wavelength) platform consisting of hybrid optoelectronic packet routers.
