Next Generation Optical Networks - The Convergence Of Ip Intelligence And Optical Technology - Schmutzer Christian

. .

Résumé :
Tomorrow's "best-of-breed" networks will integrate optical transmission with Internet protocols to deliver unprecedented performance and manageability. Next Generation Optical Networks is the first comprehensive guide to optical IP networks for both electrical engineers and data networking specialists. In this book, two Cisco optical IP pioneers review the field front every key perspective: emerging standards, state-of-the-art technologies, and key applications. Coverage includes: ? Carrier network architectures-current and future ? Architectural approaches to eliminating intermediate layers in the network backbone ? Fundamentals of optical networking: WDM, DWDM, data transmission technologies, and survivability ? Existing and future optical control planes: static IP, dynamic IP, and integrated IP ? MPLS: enabling powerful traffic engineering on optical IP networks ? The emerging Multiprotocol Lambda Switching (MPLmS) model standard: architecture, elements, and applications ? Case studies in optical network design and application delivery, including enterprise storage, ISP, and carrier environments Next Generation Optical Networks is the most thorough, authoritative resource for every technical professional building optical IP networks - in carrier, service provider, and enterprise environments alike.

Biographie:
PETER TOMSU, Ph.D., Senior Consulting Engineer at Cisco Systems, has worked with Cisco since 1996. He is involved in numerous network designs - front service provider backbones to large enterprise backbones - and is significantly driving new technologies during their definition, development, introduction, and final deployment phases. For many years, Tomsu has been a requested speaker at international conferences in the United States and worldwide. He received his Ph.D. from the Technical University of Vienna. CHRISTIAN SCHMUTZER, M.S., Systems Engineer at Cisco Systems, has been with the company since 1998. He works primarily on the design and deployment of large service provider backbones and concentrates on optical networking as well as routing technologies. As a speaker for technical tutorials throughout Europe, he frequently shares his practical experience. He received his Masters from the Fachhochschule Technikum Wien in Vienna.
