Because a router card consumes less energy at a lower clock frequency, we can minimize the energy consumption of an IP over WDM network by adaptively adjusting the clock frequencies of a router card according to its actual carried traffic demand. We develop a mixed integer linear programming (MILP) model and an efficient heuristic algorithm to adjust the clock frequency of a router card in different time slots. Results show that the clock frequency adaptation strategy can significantly reduce the energy consumption of an IP over WDM network compared to the non-adaptive case, and the heuristic algorithm is efficient to perform as close as the MILP model.
由于路由器卡在较低的时钟频率下消耗较少的能量,因此我们可以根据路由器卡实际承载的流量需求,自适应地调整路由器卡的时钟频率,从而使IP over WDM网络的能量消耗降到最低。提出了一种混合整数线性规划(MILP)模型和一种有效的启发式算法来调整路由器卡在不同时隙的时钟频率。结果表明,时钟频率自适应策略与非自适应策略相比,可以显著降低WDM网络上IP的能量消耗,启发式算法的效率接近MILP模型。

CMOS compatible photonic integrated circuits have gained great attentions in short haul interconnects applications because of the promises to tackle the issues of traditional copper interconnects. Towards the monolithic integration of electronics and photonics, lots of efforts have been made to decrease the device footprint by using surface plasmon polaritons (SPPs), in order to enhance performances and decrease power consumption. With current metals, this is, however, only true for single or few cascaded devices. This situation can be mitigated by hybridizing SPPs with dielectric modes; hybrid plasmonic waveguides based on silicon platform can provide an alternative to exploit the advantages of both plasmonics and silicon. This paper presents several examples of design, fabrication and characterization of hybrid plasmonic functional components based on silicon nanowire platform, including hybrid plasmonic directional couplers, polarization beam splitters, disks and rings with submicron radii. A proposal of electro-optic polymer modulator based on hybrid plasmonic ring resonator is also discussed. The presented components provide alternative perspectives of novel devices which may be useful in future inter- and intra-core communication systems.

With the rapid development of electronic products, the high-speed computing and the personal mobile terminal all make greater demands the on-chip performance. Due to the limited bandwidth, the low communication efficiency and the bad scalability, the Network on Chip (NoC) has been unable to satisfy the requirements of the applications above. More recently, the Optical NoC (ONoC) is introduced as an efficient solution. Compared with NoC, ONoC has the higher bandwidth, the lower power consumption and the shorter latency. With the increasing number of IP cores on a single chip, the study of 3-Dimensional (3D) ONoC has already entered the preliminary stage. Thus in this paper, we design a new 3D ONoC topology structure called 3D X-Torus. Next, we design a bidirectional optical router and a vertical optical router for our topology. Finally, we propose the corresponding routing algorithm. Our simulation results demonstrate the performances of our 3D ONoC topology, optical router and routing algorithm.
随着电子产品的飞速发展,高速计算和个人移动终端都对片上性能提出了更高的要求。由于带宽有限、通信效率低、可扩展性差,片上网络(Network on Chip, NoC)已经不能满足上述应用的要求。最近,光学NoC (ONoC)作为一种有效的解决方案被引入。与NoC相比,ONoC具有更高的带宽、更低的功耗和更短的时延。随着单芯片上IP核数量的不断增加,三维ONoC的研究已经进入了初级阶段。因此,本文设计了一种新的三维ONoC拓扑结构,称为三维X-Torus。接下来,我们设计了双向光路由器和垂直光路由器。最后,提出了相应的路由算法。仿真结果验证了三维ONoC拓扑结构、光路由器和路由算法的性能。

We propose an improved ant colony algorithm for dynamic traffic grooming (IACA-DTG) in asynchronous optical packets switching networks, by using of the ratio of available wavelengths and path chosen length each iteration and the dynamic information updated on the available instant wavelengths in full network, which can implement traffic grooming under shorter path and less iterations. The algorithm has been evaluated through simulation and the results show the packets blocking probability can be reduced as 0.1 and wavelength utilization ratio can be increased as 0.2, compared with original ant colony algorithm.

Data Center Network (DCN) is the supporting platform for various applications in cloud services. As optical switch offers high bandwidth, low latency and reduced energy consumption, it becomes a promising switching solution for scalable DCN. Recently, a new DCN architecture with distributed component sets (racks and optical core switches) in a given optical network has been proposed to simplify the DCN internal connection and make the DCN fully scalable. Because the core switches play an important role in both external service access and inter-node traffic switching, a single core switch failure may lead to traffic congestion or collapse of a DCN. Based on an existing distributed DCN, in this paper we consider how to deploy a backup core switch to fight against an arbitrary single core switch failure while minimizing the total protection cost. Upon a core switch failure, all unaffected traffics keep their original routes unchanged, and predefined protection strategy (rerouting and switching) will take effect for the affected traffics. To solve this problem, we formulate an integer linear program (ILP) to place the backup core switch at a proper node and determine the fast traffic recovery mechanism. We validate the proposed design by extensive simulation studies.
DCN (Data Center Network)是云服务中各种应用的支撑平台。由于光交换具有高带宽、低时延和低能耗等优点,成为可扩展DCN的一种很有前途的交换解决方案。近年来,为了简化DCN内部连接,使DCN具有充分的可扩展性,提出了一种在给定光网络中采用分布式组件集(机架和光核心交换机)的DCN新架构。由于核心交换机在对外业务接入和节点间业务交换中都起着重要的作用,单个核心交换机故障可能会导致DCN的流量拥塞或崩溃。本文在现有分布式DCN的基础上,研究了如何部署备用核心交换机,以应对任意单核心交换机故障,同时使总保护成本最小化。当核心交换机发生故障时,所有未受影响的流量保持原有路由不变,并对受影响的流量采用预先设定的保护策略(重路由和倒换)。为了解决这一问题,我们制定了一个整数线性规划(ILP),将备用核心交换机放置在适当的节点上,并确定了快速流量恢复机制。我们通过广泛的仿真研究验证了所提出的设计。

The problem of spectrum-shared ability is addressed by considering the shared-path protection in flexible bandwidth optical networks with distributed data centers interconnect. The overall objective of the problem is to minimize blocking probability of cloud service requests and to improving spectrum efficiency. We proposed a survivable algorithm with the spectrum-shared ability (SA_SSA) to address the above problem. For comparison, a traditional algorithm with spectrum-shared ability (TA_SSA) is also introduced. Simulation results show that, considering different the spectrum-shared abilities, SA_SSA is better performance in terms of blocking probability of cloud service requests, spectrum occupation ratio, and spectrum redundancy ratio compared to TA_SSA.

Bragg waveguide grating is one of the most important structures for on-chip light control. In order to achieve specific optical performances, the grating structure should be well designed with fine structures. Recently, reconstruction equivalent chirp (REC) technique is proposed. The optical response can be controlled by designing the sampling pattern with micro-meter scale and uniform basic grating. Therefore, the fabrication tolerance is highly improved, and the fabrication cost is greatly reduced. The REC technique is successfully applied to fabricate the multi-wavelength DFB laser arrays. Experimental results exhibit high wavelength precision, with the most wavelength deviations being within ±0.2 nm.
