Abstract

While traffic management is believed to be best implemented in the IP layer e.g. by GMPLS, an evolving question in the context of IP-over-photonics is whether the optical layer can provide service differentiation as a service to the IP layer. As a positive answer to that question, the assured Horizon framework was recently published.
