Scalable And Flexible optical Architecture for Reconfigurable Infrastructure (SAFARI)
Start date: Oct 1, 2014, End date: Sep 30, 2017,
Highly scalable & flexible optical transport networks are urgently required in order to meet the demands for unrelenting exponential data traffic growth (estimated at 40 - 50 % per annum). The number and diversity of bandwidth intensive applications and services is rapidly increasing, leading to new demands on transport networks. The present optical transport networks based on conventional fibres, ...

The DIStributed Core for unlimited bandwidth supply for all Users and Services (DISCUS)
Start date: Nov 1, 2012, End date: Dec 31, 2015,
DISCUS will analyse, design, and demonstrate a complete end-to-end architecture and technologies for an economically viable, energy efficient and environmentally sustainable future-proof optical network. It will provide a revolution in communications networks applicable across Europe and the wider world exploiting to the full the opportunity offered by LR-PONS and flat optical core networks to pro ...

Industry-Driven Elastic and Adaptive Lambda Infrastructure for Service and Transport Networks (IDEALIST)
Start date: Nov 1, 2012, End date: Oct 31, 2015,
Traffic demand is increasing dramatically, year on year, with typical growth figures of up to 60% for Internet based traffic. Such traffic increase is impacting on both network costs and power consumption. Moreover, traffic is not only increasing but becoming much more dynamic, both in time and direction. For these reasons, transport network evolution from current DWDM systems towards elastic opti ...

Multi-mode capacity enhancement with PBG fibreMulti-mode capacity enhancement with PBG fibre (MODE-GAP)
Start date: Oct 1, 2010, End date: Mar 31, 2015,
The Mode-Gap project targets the 100 fold enhancement of the overall capacity of broadband core networks, and seeks to provide Europe with a lead in the development of the next generation internet infrastructure that will soon be desperately needed if we are to keep pace with societies ever increasing data-transmission requirements. It is now recognized that research results are within a factor of ...

Scalable, Tunable and Resilient Optical Networks Guaranteeing Extremely-high Speed Transport (STRONGEST)
Start date: Jan 1, 2010, End date: Dec 31, 2012,
Internet traffic has been growing quickly for many years, despite adverse economic conditions and this growth will continue in the future. To cope with this evolution, the cost of today's network solutions is still too high.In addition, in line with the EC goal of reducing the overall emissions, energy efficiency should be widely improved, using whenever possible optics instead of electronics wher ...
