The purpose of OPTICS 2013, the International Conference on Optical
Communication Systems, is to bring together researchers, engineers and
practitioners interested on any of the optical communication components of
an optical communication system, or the system itself. An optical
communication system consists of a transmitter, which encodes a message into
an optical signal, a channel, which carries the signal to its destination,
and a receiver, which reproduces the message from the received optical
signal.

 

Optical fiber is currently the main means for high-rate transmission in
communication networks. In the last years, there is a great deal of ongoing
research efforts that span the entire protocol stack of optical networks,
with representative areas being architecture of optical components,
optoelectronics, wavelength routing, energy efficiency, Quality of Service,
hybrid optical-wireless networks etc.

 

Ideas on how to analyze and approach problems by combining optical
technologies, electronic interfaces, and communication technologies, either
in the scope of R&D projects, engineering or network management, are
welcome. Papers describing new methods or technologies, advanced prototypes,
systems, tools and techniques and general survey papers indicating future
directions are also encouraged. Papers describing original work are invited
in any of the areas listed below. Accepted papers, presented at the
conference by one of the authors, will be published in the Proceedings of
OPTICS, with an ISBN. Acceptance will be based on quality, relevance and
originality. Both full research reports and work-in-progress reports are
welcome. There will be both oral and poster sessions.

The best papers will be selected to appear either in an international
journal or in a book to be published by Springer-Verlag.

 

Special sessions, case-studies and tutorials dedicated to
technical/scientific topics related to the main conference are also
envisaged: researchers interested in organizing a special session, or
companies interested in presenting their products/methodologies or
researchers interested in holding a tutorial are invited to contact the
conference secretariat.

 

 

KEYNOTE SPEAKERS

 

ICETE 2013 will have several invited keynote speakers, who are
internationally recognized experts in their areas. Their names are not yet
confirmed.

 

PUBLICATIONS

 

All accepted papers (full, short and posters) will be published in the
conference proceedings, under an ISBN reference, on paper and on CD-ROM
support.

All papers presented at the conference venue will be available at the
SciTePress Digital Library (http://www.scitepress.org/DigitalLibrary/).

SciTePress is member of CrossRef (http://www.crossref.org/).

A short list of presented papers will be selected so that revised and
extended versions of these papers will be published by Springer-Verlag in a
CCIS Series book

The proceedings will be submitted for indexation by Thomson Reuters
Conference Proceedings Citation Index (ISI), INSPEC, DBLP and EI (Elsevier
Index). 

 

AWARDS

 

Best paper awards will be distributed during the conference closing session.
