Abstract
The European Conference on Optical Communication (ECOC) 2024 was held between 22 and 26 September 2024 in Frankfurt, Germany. Invited, tutorial, and top-scored papers related to optical network topics were invited for an extended paper in this journal, and this Special Issue (SI) is dedicated to this collection of papers. This set of papers represents the very latest in optical networks research, with a wide range of themes covered.
期刊介绍:
The scope of the Journal includes advances in the state-of-the-art of optical networking science, technology, and engineering. Both theoretical contributions (including new techniques, concepts, analyses, and economic studies) and practical contributions (including optical networking experiments, prototypes, and new applications) are encouraged. Subareas of interest include the architecture and design of optical networks, optical network survivability and security, software-defined optical networking, elastic optical networks, data and control plane advances, network management related innovation, and optical access networks. Enabling technologies and their applications are suitable topics only if the results are shown to directly impact optical networking beyond simple point-to-point networks.
