OT (solitons related-- don't want to be suspended by the SI administration police). Hi Jack: I am not sure Scott Zion's description is correct. The key feature of soliton pulses is that they travel without deformation. They interact also elastically, i.e. if two pulses collide they emerge with exactly the same shapes as before their collision. Re. Corvis, QTera, Algety, I have no clue as to the specifics of the solutions proposed-- all details are usually hush hush. By the way, I thought the optical communications division of Pirelli (which was bought recently by CSCO) had also some soliton expertise. Best regards, Bernard Levy
