Researchers in Optical Networks are cordially invited to submit their
research work to the Special Issue of Optical Networks Magazine. The
call
for papers is as follows. More details of this call can be found

Special Issue: Call for Papers
Routing and Control in Optical Networks
Optical networks with wavelength division
multiplexing (WDM) are perhaps a viable solution (if not
the only solution) to cope with the ever-increasing
demand of bandwidth on the Internet. With today's
technological developments in optical systems, WDM scheme
allows terabit data rates to be supported on a
single fiber. Exploitation of WDM in wavelength routing
has motivated researchers in recent years to investigate
all-optical networks as a high-speed infrastructure.
With the availability of high-speed terabit
electronic routers, multihop optical networks are also expected
to provide a similar high-speed architecture.
To reflect and archive the recent
developments for this class of network architecture, this special
issue aims to consolidate and disseminate leading research
results in the area of routing and control of optical
networks.
Original research papers are solicited in,
but not limited to, the following areas:
Static and dynamic routing in optical network
Channel assignment and routing in context of IP
and/or MPLS protocols
Fault management issues
Routing with wavelength conversion
Traffic modeling and efficient routing schemes
Multihop routing protocols
Fault management for multihop routing
Original, unpublished contributions and
invited articles
will be considered for this special
issue.
We plan to use
electronic submission of papers
(Postscript). To submit a
paper for consideration, authors should
send the
following information to the guest
editors
via email:
1.Title, Abstract of the paper, and
list
of authors.
2.Indicate which author is to serve as
the
primary
correspondence contact.
3.Please list affiliation, mailing
address, phone/fax
numbers, and email address of the
correspondence
author. The correspondence author
will
then be
provided with instructions to upload
the paper at a
website. The article should be
formatted to print
on either Letter (8.5"x11") or A4
format paper. The
article should be no longer than 20
double-spaced
pages, excluding illustrations and
graphs.
