INTRODUCTION

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The coming of the modern information age has brought about phenomenal growth in telecommunications-based services, driven primarily by the Internet. Once where megabits were sufficient, even terabits do not suffice. As the burgeoning expansion of the Internet continues along an unprecedented and unpredictable path, many new applications are foreseen and expected. These applications are placing increasing demands from both business and private customers for ultra-scalable, flexible, transparent, terabit speed, customized bandwidth services. In concert, rapid advances in Dense Wave Division Multiplexing (DWDM) technology and the ensuing bandwidth explosion are ushering in altogether new paradigms for telecommunications networks. Driven by the increasing demand and nature of traffic, DWDM is now beginning to expand from a network core technology towards the metropolitan and access networks arenas. The successful deployment of many long-haul DWDM solutions has yielded a windfall in core transport capacity. Now, the focus is beginning to shift towards metropolitan optical networks (MONs), with the goal of bringing the benefits (cost and networks efficiencies) of the optical networking revolution to the end-users.

Popularly, MONs are defined as optical
