Abstract
Optical information processing lies at the intersection of optics and signal processing. It involves the processing of optical information as well as the use of optical means to process information, the later being the main emphasis of this work. A historical review of various forms of optical signal processing and holography, optoelectronic and digital optical computing, and optical interconnections is given.

Dimensioning shared-per-node recirculating fiber delay line buffers in an optical packet switch
Akar, N.; Gunalay, Y. (Elsevier, 2013)Optical buffering based on fiber delay lines (FDLs) has been proposed as a means for contention resolution in an optical packet switch. In this article, we propose a queuing model for feedback-type shared-per-node recirculating ... -
