Abstract
Future high bit rate optical packet switched networks will be based on single or multiwavelength technology for transport, while the switching nodes, working in the optical domain, will operate on a cell basis, in a synchronous way. This will allow a fair resolution of contentions, through the use of optical buffers, and proper routing to the destination by means of space switching.
