Call for Papers
---------------

IEEE Globecom 2010, December 6-10, 2010, Miami, FL, U.S.A.
(http://www.ieee-globecom.org/2010)

Optical Networks and Systems Symposium
(http://gc10-ons.ece.iastate.edu)

Sponsored by the IEEE Comsoc Optical Networking Technical Committee (ONTC)
(http://www.comsoc.org/socstr/org/operation/techcom/optical.html)

Rapid advances in optical communications, systems, and networks have
been the driver behind their deployment beyond the network core to
grid, storage, and access systems. The emergence of a new generation of
photonic devices that are intelligent, self-aware, and programmable
under software control opens up new possibilities in optical network
design. Hence, new optical networks architectures are conceivable that
go beyond simply providing raw transmission capacity to higher
transport layers, to capturing the full potential of an optical
substrate populated with a multitude of elements performing a variety
of monitoring, sensing, impairment compensation, reconfiguration,
switching, signal splitting and multiplexing functions natively in the
optical domain. To realize these novel network architectures, new
challenges arise in designing and engineering multiple layers in an
integrated manner, in facilitating explicitly cross-layer interactions,
in integrating control plane policy and strategy, and in coordinating
standardization efforts.

The Symposium will continue its established practice of focusing on
cutting-edge, state-of-the-art research in optical networks and systems
and newly emerging areas. Submissions of papers that relate the topics
of optical networks and systems to other research areas and disciplines,
including the integration of optical and wireless networks, emergent
service paradigms for new applications, and the role of optics in the
future Internet design, are highly encouraged.

This Symposium aims to bring together researchers from academia and
industry to address recent advances n the design, modeling, prototyping,
implementation, standardization, and deployment of optical networks.
