From the Foreword by Paul E. Green, Research Fellow, Tellabs, Inc.
The tremendous growth of bandwidth-intensive services such as the World Wide Web demonstrates the increase in performance that applications will demand from future networks. To meet this demand, optical networks are being deployed and are emerging as the next generation of high-capacity, multi-protocol networks. Engineers in communications and fiber optics, networking professionals, and graduate students in networking courses will benefit from this book's unique coverage of the systems aspect of optical networks.
Features:
Provides a thorough presentation of the physical, architectural, and algorithmic issues of optimal network systems
Covers both wavelength-division multiplexed (WDM) and time-division multiplexed (TDM) networks as well as SONET
Provides an in-depth treatment of the design of advanced optical fiber transmission systems
Discusses management and control of optical networks
Covers the important aspects of established and emerging standards

Rajiv Ramaswami has been involved in the research and development of optical networks for about nine years. He was with IBM Research's optical networking group from 1989-1996 and is now a director at Tellabs, Inc., responsible for developing optical communication products. He has a Ph.D. in EECS from the University of California, Berkeley. He is also the recipient of an outstanding innovation award from IBM fro his role in developing an early commercial 20-wavelength optical fiber transmission system. Kumar N. Sivarajan has been an active researcher in the areas of optical, cellular, and ATM networks over the last eight years. From 1990-1994 he was a research staff member at IBM Research. He is presently on the faculty of the Electrical Communication Engineering Department at the Indian Institute of Science. He received his Ph.D. degree in Electrical Engineering from the California Institute of Technology. The authors are the recipients of the W.G.R. Baker and W.R.
