TL;DR: The technical core of a precompetitive consortium formed by AT&T, DEC, and MIT to study the technology, architecture and applications of wideband all-optical networks of local to national (or international) extent is described.
Abstract: The technical core of a precompetitive consortium formed by AT&T, DEC, and MIT to study the technology, architecture and applications of wideband all-optical networks of local to national (or international) extent is described. A general introduction to all-optical networks is given, and some proposed applications are discussed. The architecture, technology and testbed portions of this effort are described. >
