Call for Papers  
                The 7th IFIP Working Conference on
           OPTICAL NETWORK DESIGN & MODELLING (ONDM 2003)
               February 3-5, 2003, Budapest, Hungary
                  http://www.hsnlab.hu/~ONDM2003/

Scope:
   The Seventh Working Conference on Optical Network Design and Modelling, 
   aims at presenting high-quality recent research results in optical 
   network architectures, design, operation, management and planning. 
   In the tradition of the previous conferences (Torino'02, Vienna'01, 
   Athens'00, Paris'99, Rome'98 and Vienna'97) we will bring to Budapest
   researchers from academia and industry as well as network operators 
   and manufacturers to discuss and disseminate optical network design 
   and modelling tecniques. Contributions are invited on all topics 
   concerning optical networking, including:
      o  IP over optical networks
      o  Optical acccess, metropolitan and transport networks
      o  Routing and wavelength assignment in WDM networks
      o  Switched optical networks (ASON, MPLambdaS, ODSI, OIF)
      o  Multilayer architectures (e.g., ASTN, GMPLS)
      o  Traffic and wavelength grooming
      o  Optical Packet/Burst/Flow Switching
      o  Protection and restoration strategies
      o  Optical Virtual Private Networks, etc.
