“…The future MAN/W AN must be flexible enough to achieve any level of connectivity as various kinds of services will be supplied through many sub-networks (McEachern, 1992). Thus, connectivity management will be unavoidable.…”

This paper proposes a novel bandwidth arrangement for an Add/Drop Multiplexer (ADM) that minimizes the line capacity required in bi-directional ring networks wherein the ADMs are connected logically in a mesh topology. The technique, characterized by timeslotlwavelength conversion, realizes uniform add/drop processing common to all ADMs, regardless of their location on the ring. A self-healing algorithm is proposed for the network, which offers better performance than existing algorithms for SONET rings in terms of protection line capacity, restoration time, and survivability against multiple failures. Delay issue caused by the self-healing function is also considered.

“…The traditional way of using this vast bandwidth is to increase the bit rate, transmitting only one TDM modulated optical carrier. Following this path we will fmd soon serious problems, due to the limited speed of electronic components, today the highest bit rate supported by electro-optic interfaces is 2.4 Gbit/second, and it appears impractical to extend the bit rate beyond 10 Gbit/second [2]. But we can avoid the speed problem using wavelength division multiplexing (WDM), or optical frequency division multiplexing (OFDM), term applicable to systems with reduced optical carrier spacing.…”

To maintain the pace of progress the future development of telecoms networks should reduce the cost per connection, improve quality of service and increase network functionality and intelligence. In this paper we examine some .of the longer term network options including optical networking to create bandwidth transparency in order to reduce costs and enable new networking approaches (eg where bandwidth is traded for simpler control). We also discuss the reliability threat from the growth of ‘software mountains’ associated with increased network intelligence and functionality, and suggest self organization as a viable alternative.
