Optical Switching in Next Generation Data Centers [electronic resource] /
Testa, Francesco.editor.
Pavesi, Lorenzo.editor.
This book introduces the reader to the optical switching technology for its application to data centers. In addition, it takes a picture of the status of the technology and system architecture evolution and of the research in the area of optical switching in data center. The book is organized in four parts: the first part is focused on the system aspects of optical switching in intra-data center networking, the second part is dedicated to describing the recently demonstrated optical switching networks, the third part deals with the latest technologies developed to enable optical switching and, finally, the fourth part of the book outlines the future prospects and trends.
Includes bibliographical references at the end of each chapters and index.
