Abstract :
The evolutionary and/or revolutionary strategies of optical telecommunication future development towards next generation IP over optical networks as well as their social impact are discussed. The desirable extent of network transparency in an advanced all-optical network architecture is studied in detail. Conditions for the successful deployment of transparent and all-optical terabit networks are discussed, and intermediate issues are pointed out
