CALL FOR PAPERS

IEEE Network Special issue on "Optical Networks in Cloud Computing"

 

Recent advances in cloud computing suggest that convenient and prompt access
to distributed and powerful computing and networking resources has been
critical for e-Science and data-intensive business-oriented applications.
Therefore, we have to facilitate efficient interworking of computing,
networking and storage resources for next-generation clouds.

 

Scope of Contributions

 

This special issue invites manuscript submissions to explore recent advances
and disseminate the state-of-the-art research on optical networks in cloud
computing, including all levels of designing and developing, from the device
to system and network levels. It will also identify potential research
directions that will lead to innovations within this area. We expect the
papers of this special issue to serve as valuable references for a large
audience from both academia and industry. Original, unpublished
contributions and survey/tutorial types of articles will be considered. The
topics of interest for the special issue include, but are not limited to:

 

-        Elastic optical networking technologies to support grid or cloud
computing

-        Optical infrastructures for grid or cloud computing

-        Multi-layer, multi-domain designs and optimizations for optical
infrastructures of grid or cloud computing

-        Routing and path computation algorithms for grid or cloud computing
environments

-        Resource allocation algorithms in optical grid or cloud computing
environments

-        Optical network virtualization for grid or cloud computing

-        Network reconfiguration and traffic engineering for optical clouds

-        Optical network control and management for grid or cloud computing

-        Protection and restoration in optical clouds.

-        Optical storage networks

-        Impact of physical-layer impairments on optical cloud design

-        Security in optical clouds

-        Optical switching technologies, devices, and architectures for grid
or cloud computing

-        Digital signal processing technologies for short-reach optical
interconnects within data-centers

-        Optical interconnects for high-performance computing systems

-        Performance analysis of short-reach optical interconnects within
data-centers

-        Photonic integration for short-reach optical interconnects

-        Transceiver technologies for short-reach optical interconnects

-        Chip-scale optical data communications

-        Field trials, new applications and experiments on convergence of
grid and cloud computing and optical networks

-        Energy-efficient/green optical clouds
