The role of optics, usually fiber optics, in high performance networks at IBM Research runs the gamut from pure transmission to dynamic WDM routing. While the use of fiber optics in transmission has been well established for some time, the use of optics in more complex functions has been inhibited by the disparity in complexity between what optics can do and what electronics does in existing networks today. This paper describes a few projects which address the interfaces between optics and electronics, and between traditionally device issues and traditionally networking issues in the use of wavelength-division multiplexing.
