The next generation of optical networking
 
To keep up with the demand for internet bandwidth, network providers are increasingly deploying fiber-optic systems that can carry hundreds of wavelengths in a single fiber. With high-data-rate wireless networks on the verge of being interfaced with the fiber backbone, the implementation of dense wavelength division multiplexing, or WDM, is poised to revolutionize communications technology. It is already opening the way to new business opportunities and can be expected to determine the future of SONET/SDH, ATM, and other key technologies.
 
Though its potential is obvious, Internet Protocol(IP) over WDM has not received the comprehensive technical treatment it warrants. This book, edited by a leader in the field and contributed to by a stellar collection of experts from around the world, offers comprehensive and practical information on the transport of the IP over the optical/WDM layer.
 
Balancing theory and application, the reference explains how the physical WDM layer works and how to implement a range of transmission protocols, along with:
* Switching and routing techniques (IP, MPLS, MPS, GMPLS)
* Quality of service (QoS) issues
* Standards considerations
* The pros and cons of various network layer protocols
* Practical implementation examples
* Network engineering and planning
 
Featuring an in-depth discussion of the evolution toward all-optical IP packet switching networks and other emerging technologies, IP over WDM: Building the Next Generation Optical Internet is a highly useful, one-volume resource for anyone interested in the interplay between the optical layer and the Internet Protocol layer of any network.
