Optical Network Programmability - Requirements and Applications
نویسندگان
چکیده
Datacenter operators and internet content providers require optical network programmability to efficiently interconnect distributed datacenters. This paper describes the requirements, applications and use cases for optical network programmability. Based on application scenarios, open northbound APIs with different levels of control and abstraction to address different network operator requirements which are defined. For their illustration, use cases for optical network programmability show current research directions. Keywords—component; formatting; style; styling; insert (key

Design of a Multigigabit Optical Network Interface Card
High-speed optical data links enable local area networks (LANs) that operate at data rates above 10 Gb/s. Various network, protocol and switch architectures have been proposed that use these links. The optical network interface card (ONIC) is an important component for demonstrating efficient application of these architectures. In this paper, we describe the design of a programmable ONIC that i...
متن کاملDesign of a Hybrid Modular P4-Compatible Switch
Network Function Virtualization (NFV) shed new light for the design, deployment, and management of cloud networks. Many network functions such as firewalls, load balancers, and intrusion detection systems can be virtualized by servers. However, network operators often have to sacrifice programmability in order to achieve high throughput, especially at networks’ edge where complex network functi...
متن کاملArchitectural Implications of Cache Coherence Protocols with Network Applications on Chip MultiProcessors
Network processors are specialized integrated circuits used to process packets in such network equipment as core routers, edge routers, and access routers. As predicted by Gilder’s law, Internet traffic has doubled each year since 1997 and this trend is showing no signs of abating. Since all emerging network applications which require deep packet classification and security-related processing s...

This paper describes the development of a hybrid sensing module consisting of a general purpose electro-optical converter and three MEMS force sensors, to be integrated into flexible substrates for tactile skin applications. The features of the converter, namely its flexible and thin substrate and small dimensions, programmability, optical coding and transmission of the information allow this v...
متن کاملOn the Efficiency and Programmability of Large Graph Processing in the Cloud
As the study of large graphs over hundreds of gigabytes becomes increasingly popular in cloud computing, efficiency and programmability of large graph processing tasks challenge existing tools. The inherent random access pattern on the graph generates significant amount of network traffic. Moreover, implementing custom logics on the unstructured data in a distributed manner is often a pain for ...
