A field-trial of on-demand integration of grid and innovative wavelength multicasting service over WSON for emerging frontier applications

Konferensbidrag (offentliggjort, men ej förlagsutgivet), 2010

To enable the quick applications and services of new-born innovative optical network service (INS) in largescale high-end grid computing, we propose an overlay approach to integrate grid and emerging INS resources establishing the value-added optical grid network flexibly cross over multi-domain WSONs. In particular, we introduce an edge-mode approach which flexibly leverages new multifunction wavelength selective multicasting (WSM) at a special edge close to the core node. To integrate grid and innovative optical network technologies efficiently, we propose a unified platform - optical grid/INS network infrastructure (OGINI). Through field trial experiments over a developed metropolitan-scale wavelength switched optical network (WSON) test-bed, the feasibility of the proposed WSM scheme in the optical transmission systems and the totally automated value-added OGN constructions supported by the proposed OGINI have been verified successfully.
