Field demonstration of a fully managed, L1 encrypted 3-node network with hybrid relayed-QKD and centralized symmetric classical key management

We successfully demonstrated a fully-managed, field-deployed, three-node QKD ring network with L1-OTNsec encryption, that employs a hybrid scheme of QKD and classical yet quantum-safe centrally-generated symmetric keys to support point-to-point and relay consumers

The research agenda in optical burst switching in e-photon/ONe

This talk provides an overview of the current research in Optical Burst Switching within the EU network of excellence e-Photon/ONe, comprising network aspects such as routing techniques, resilience and contention resolution, together with burst switch architectures. On the other hand, we also discuss traffic analysis issues, Quality of Service (QoS) schemes, TCP/IP over OBS and physical layer aspects for OBS
