Abstract

This paper reports the view of the e-Photon/ONe community regarding the research directions in optical transport networks. Results stemming from joint international research activities in the framework of the project are summarized. This summary presents, necessarily, little details, but wants to draw the attention of the reader towards the most advanced research activities ongoing on the broad topics of optical core networks, from wavelength routed network, to optical burst switching and optical packet switching.
