Abstract
In this prolog, we have offered an inkling of some of the driving issues in the quest for high data rates in optical communications lines. The tutorial covers the vast area of R&D in flexible fiber optic networking, and it will most certainly encourage generation of new ideas for further development during the coming decades.
