Rapid advances in optical components have  enabled the transition from point-to-point WDM links to all-optical  networking. \u003cbr\u003e  \u003cem\u003eOptical WDM Networks: Principles and Practice\u003c\/em\u003e presents some of  the most important challenges facing the optical networking community,  along with some suggested solutions. Earlier textbooks in optical  networking have a narrower perspective, and rapidly advancing research  has created the need for fresh and current information on problems and  issues in the field. The volume editors and contributing authors have  endeavoured to capture a substantial subset of the key problems and  known solutions to these problems. \u003cbr\u003e  All of the chapters are original contributions from leading  international researchers. The chapters address a wide variety of  topics, including the state of the art in WDM technology, physical  components that make up WDM fiber-optic networks, medium access  protocols, wavelength routed networks, optical access networks,  network management, and performance evaluation of wavelength routing  networks. The chapters also survey critical points in past research  and tackle more recent problems. \u003cbr\u003e  Practitioners and network product engineers interested in current  state-of-the-art information beyond textbook-type coverage, and  graduate students commencing research in this area, will appreciate  the concise - and pertinent - information presented  herein.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublished by: Springer\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublication Date: 2000-03-31\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFormat: Hardcover\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN-13: 9780792378259\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDOI: 10.1007\/b115953\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDimensions: 235.0cm x155.0cm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePages: 352.0\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Springer US","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45578394534028,"sku":"9780792378259","price":152.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9780792378259.jpg?v=1767145664","url":"https:\/\/fh90cf-fv.myshopify.com\/products\/9780792378259","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
