A Little Talk about Sane Progress
• We are tired after two days of technical topics. • This is the very last presentation. • And this is the 8th CEF Networks Workshop. • Was thinking about some off-topic themes. • Are we happy with the results of CEFs? • Are there any substantial proofs we are right? • So now...it is time for something completely
different.

Reconstructing the structure of the world-wide music scene with Last.fm. Inspired by the Internet mapping efforts of the Opte Project, I decided to investigate how does the network of musicians
look like. Basically: this is a graph representation of the similarity relationships derived from the database of Last.fm.

Great musicians are hidden in this diagram somewhere – really great artists but they are not mainstream. Can we find some similar diagram/graph?

Great webs are hidden in this diagram somewhere – really advanced but they are not mainstream. Can we find some similar diagram/graph once again?

• Are there any similarities in these pictures? Stars, web pages/servers, musicians?
• The same life-cycles? Giants, novas, dwarfs, black holes?
• Deformated/transformed sunflowers – similar concepts used to overcome the Nyquist criterion with the Anamorphic Stretch Transform (M.H. Asghari, B.Jalali) – The AST used in 1931 by one S.Dalí La persistència de

• The European Union admitted two months ago (Dec 2013) its emission policies have been ineffective for two decades.
• Rising EU NOx levels despite quadruple-strength restrictions against them. • Janez Potocnik, member of the European Commission in charge of
Environment said in December 2013 that since 1992 Euro 1 through Euro 5 regulations have failed to spur improved diesel emissions, particularly regarding NOx.
• “The actual situation is such that the [emissions] performance on the street today its basically somewhere around the level of the standards that were set in Euro 1. This was by the way, in 1992.”
• He said stricter “Euro 6” regulations to replace Euro 5 this September must correct this.
• Really? Euro 6 will correct this? With ‚the air assisted urea injection‘? • http://ec.europa.eu/environment/air/pdf/clean_air/Impact_assessment_

• Clouds – something new or not? Security issues. Celebrities. ‚Much Ado About Nothing‘?
• 100G (and perhaps 400G) networks – compensation of chromatic dispersion, again?
• Is 10x10G more expensive than 1x100G? Today? Or tomorrow?
• What about Optical Transport Networks (OTN) – do we need it? Could we live with SONET/SDH today?
• ‚Habit is a second nature‘?
15-16 September, 2014 CEF Networks Workshop, Praha 22
A Little Talk about Sane Progress Now back to networking...
• Clouds – something new or not? Security issues. Celebrities and their photos.
• Too ‚Much Ado About Nothing‘? • Just computers connected together. Or not? • Who is responsible and for what? • Criticism from Richard Stallman and Larry Ellis. • Ready for 100G->400G transition? 3000km vs
500km reach is reality. Do we move Clouds? • Do we need Clouds? Wise, rational, sane?

A Little Talk about Sane Progress Clouds
• 100G quite common in today. First coherent 100G systems in 2009.
• Networks without compensation of chromatic dispersion not to limit 100G optical reach – THE recommendation from vendors.
• Great, but 10G (non coherent) not possible to deploy. • So for distances more than 80km, only 100G coherent
will work. • Can we have 100G anywhere? Can we afford it? Who
will pay for this? Waste of (tax payers) money? • Wise, rational, sane?

A Little Talk about Sane Progress 100G and 400G speeds
• Chongjin Xie, Bell Labs: Suppression of Inter-Channel Nonlinearities in WDM Coherent PDM-QPSK Systems Using Periodic-Group-Delay Dispersion Compensators, ECOC 2009, Paper P4.08.
• Conclusions: We have shown that using PGD dispersion compensators in a dispersion-managed system can significantly improve the inter-channel nonlinear tolerance of coherent PDM-QPSK signals and make the dispersion-managed system perform better than the system with electronic dispersion compensation.
• Periodic-Group-Delay Dispersion Compensators = new kind of compensators (PGD is not Dispersion Compensating Fibre DCF)
• PGD is completely passive – it is just fibre, from few cm to few metres in length

Compensation of chromatic dispersion with Fibre Bragg Gratings FBG. This is not possible with DCFs.
• 400G available today • Optical reach limited to 500-700km – want to be frank: CD plus noise. • They say you can‘t have both bandwidth and reach:
– http://blog.infinera.com/2014/01/06/coherent-technology-you-cant-have-too-much-of-a-good-thing/#more-1073 (400G to 4x100G demultiplexing with OTN)
– www.research.att.com/techdocs/TD_101176.pdf (reality we have to accept) • So your 100G network is designed for 2000km reach, with 400G upgrade
you have 500km (numbers just examples) • What are you goint to do? • Move your Big Data Centres, Users,...? • Move CERN, FNAL, radiotelescopes arrays,...? • Deploy ‚400G regenerators‘ (back to back transponders - $$$$$$$$$$)? • Regenerators were used with 2.5G SDH/SONET systems back in 2000.
Going in circles (ITU SDH -> ITU OTN)? Like air pollution back in 1992??? • Wise, rational, sane?

A Little Talk about Sane Progress 400G speeds
• They say 10x10G is more expensive than 1x100G. • Yes or no? 10G transceiver $ vs 100G transceiver $$$.
Usual prices. • But if 10G transceiver is made 15x more expensive than is
usual, 100G may pay off. • Artificial increase of 10G prices – to make 100G a viable
option today. Not valid for future of course. • Would you buy LEDs, apples or tyres 15x more expensive
than usual prices? Waste of (tax payers) money? • Wise, rational, sane?
15-16 September, 2014 CEF Networks Workshop, Praha 28
A Little Talk about Sane Progress Is 10x10G more expensive than 1x100G? Today? Or tomorrow?
• OTN is very similar to SDH (ITU). • Perhaps OTN should be called SDHv3 (SDHv2 is SDH with
LCAC/VCAT), timing (the synchronous feature) constraints more relaxed...OTN not so Synchronous anymore.
• Is OTN super-high-speed PDH only? (PlesiochronousDH was before SynchronousDH).
• Do we need it? They say it is necessary for subwavelength (less than 100G? 10G?) granularity.
• But DWDM transceivers 1-10G are cheap and available for ‚subwavelength‘ granularity. OTN switch is not cheap.
• Are we (NRENs) going to sell 100x1G ‚circuits‘ as known from Ethernet over SDH/SONET? If yes, we do need OTN.
15-16 September, 2014 CEF Networks Workshop, Praha 29
A Little Talk about Sane Progress What about Optical Transport Network (OTN) – is needed?
• One prime example - TCP over long distance. • Heard even during CEF2014 about issues with
performance when connecting two end stations. • TCP? Writing/reading discs, memories? Something
else? The root of all evil not known (not possible to repeat experiments etc etc).
• To repeat experiments in some lab? To be sure what the problem is?
• 400GE – why not 200GE? Or 500GE? 4x from SONET...but 100% consensus in IEEE HSE

• In Czech it is ‚Habit is an iron shirt‘. – Perhaps it should be an iron maiden:-)
