Résumé

IP over WDM explores the coming together of communication and computer networking technologies: optical fiber using WDM (Wavelength Division Multiplexing) and IP - the Internet Protocol. Fiber optics technology is revolutionizing the telecommunications and networking industries by offering the enormous capacity required to sustain continuous growth of the Internet. Meanwhile, IP is rapidly becoming the dominant network protocol for a global and ubiquitous Internet. In his pioneering text, Kevin Liu demonstrates how to fully exploit the fiber bandwidth capacity by WDM and the universal connectivity offered by IP, by carefully integrating the two technologies and optimising systems to play to their strengths. He presents IP/WDM architectural and internetworking models, discusses network control and traffic engineering and highlights issues specific to IP/WDM networks. Features:

Performance studies, simulations and case studies
WDM network testbeds and products comparison
Standardization initiatives
A comprehensive review of optical communications, routing, signalling, and other optical network control and management functions
A comprehensive review of IP over WDM networking architectures, IP/WDM internetworking models, and IP/WDM service models
Detailed coverage of Internet routing, MPLS/MPlS/GMPLS, IP/WDM network addressing, WDM topology discovery, IP/WDM routing, IP/WDM signalling, and IP/WDM restoration
Detailed coverage on Internet and MPLS traffic engineering, and IP/WDM traffic engineering
Discussion on IP/WDM group communication, TCP over optical networks, and IP/WDM network applications

This detailed and precise presentation of a new paradigm in network engineering will appeal to all telecommunications and computer network engineers designing and building next generation systems as well as graduate students majoring in control and traffic engineering for next generation optical networks.
