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 Original, unpublished contributions and survey/tutorial 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

 

Manuscript Submission 

 

Authors should send an electronic version (PDF files ONLY) ScholarOne 
Manuscripts at http://mc.manuscriptcentral.com/network-ieee. During preparation 
of the article for submission, prospective authors may wish to consult the 
guidelines for manuscripts and the Author Guidelines applicable to authors 
whose papers have been accepted. Time may be saved by paying careful attention 
to those instructions at an early stage. Articles should have no more than 4500 
words, no more than 6 tables/figures, and the abstract should have no more than 
250 words. For each manuscript, the authors are also requested to submit a 
separate cover letter that contains the paper title and the affiliations of 
authors. With regard to both the content and formatting style of the 
submissions, prospective contributors should follow the IEEE Network guidelines 
for authors, which can be found at:
