Abstract

The 12th International Conference on Optical Networking Design and Modeling – ONDM 2008 – will be held in Vilanova i la Geltrú, Catalonia, Spain, on March 12–14, 2008. ONDM is a major European conference focusing on the area of optical networking. The main conference topics indeed range almost all relevant areas in optical networking and communications. From many years the ONDM conference is a meeting point for people coming from the leading industry and from the research and academic side willing to spread and update their knowledge in the conference technical areas. Co–located with the main conference, other meetings, invited speakers sessions, workshops and events will be placed either simultaneously or in the nearest days. Keywords: • Optical network performance modelling • Optical network planning and design • Network reconfiguration and restoration techniques • Novel architectures for waveleng throuters (optical nodes) • Multi–layer design of optical networks • Self–healing SDH loops • Optical integrated circuits • Applications for all–optical network infrastructures • WDM inter–working with IP networks • GMPLS optical switching nodes • Optical network management • Signalling for all–optical networks • Measurement, monitoring and supervision techniques • Optical network performance monitoring • Optical multicasting • Call admission control and QoSawareness in optical networks • Routing and wavelength assignment algorithms • Photonic–based end–to–end communication protocols • Optical data networking • Optical packet/burst switching(OBS/OPS) • Optical Time Division Multiplexing(OTDM) systems • Soliton–based networks • Access networks designs and protocols. • Metro/access interface – architectures technologies and protocols enabling transparency • MAC protocols for optical LANs and MANs • High speed optical LANs and gigabit Ethernet • All–optical access networks • Evolution of metro networks: technical, economic and migration studies • Field trials and experiments • Optical interfaces and optical terminals • Inter–working between optical and wireless networks • Optical architectures for grid applications • Modelling and design methodologies for optical grid networks • Standardization and economic comparisons
