International Conference on Photonics in Switching (PS) 2010

The Photonics in Switching Topical Meeting addresses all research areas in which photonic technologies are applied to innovate and enhance the future networking, computing, and Internet infrastructures. This area includes photonic switching devices, high-throughput optical systems, efficient optical network architectures, data center networking, and computing systems with optical interconnects, optical cross-connects and interconnects, integrated photonics and system on chip, optical routers and switches. In particular, developing optical subsystems, optical processors and novel integrated circuit requires proper balancing of photonic and electronic technologies. Optical infrastructures will leverage the opportunities offered by photonics to answer the emerging needs of the next decades such as the realization of all-optical network and computing elements, the reduction of network power consumption and device footprint by integration.
