The research concentrates on broadband (all-) optical multipoint networking (focusing on the lower network levels like MAN/LAN/residential access), exploiting the unique characteristics of the fiber (low attenuation, huge bandwidth) in a multi-dimensional way (switching and routing in the wavelength, time and space dimension). Hybrid networks, combining the bests of fiber and, e.g., copper-wired or wireless techniques, put especially interesting demands on network control in response to user and service demands. Wavelength division multiplexing is still not thoroughly investigated for these networks, and may offer interesting opportunities for controlling the network.
