4 Jean-Luc BEYLAT and Jean-Claude SIMON ECOC 2014 General Co-Chairs Welcome Address 4 Since its creation, ECOC is the best venue in Europe for catching up with the leading-edge research in the field of optical communication and all related topics. If you have to know about the latest technological or scientific discoveries, ECOC is definitely the place to be! We didn t compromise for this 40 th edition of ECOC, which is back again in Cannes, both an international crossroads and a French glamorous seaside resort. The theme, the Latest Advances in Optical Communication Technologies», features this year a new content distribution in seven main areas, each supervised by a dedicated subcommittee of world renown experts, as you will see in the Technical Program Committee description, in order to better reflect rapidly evolving technical trends. Leading-edge researchers will report their work through a carefully selected blend of tutorial, invited and regular papers - about 400 oral and poster presentations. Among hot topics, to name a few, you will hear about spatial division multiplexing and transmission technologies, mature InP based modulators and Silicon Photonic integrated circuits, signal processing (including all optical techniques for DSP post processing coherent receiver simplification) and novel synchronization schemes for ever increasing modulation formats cardinality. Regarding switching and high capacity transmission, you will notice a new momentum for research on large port count optical packet switches, and numerous contributions on non-linear distortions and their mitigations through DSP. You will also learn how the aspiration for networks function virtualization (NFV) could reshape the transport network, and you will discover the value of bandwidth-variable transceivers for flexible grooming and bandwidth optimization. Optical Access and In-Door technologies will also be under the spotlights, notably through the everywhere penetrating high modulation formats techniques, and a come back of free-space optics for interconnects in data centers. In addition to the ECOC program, a special CLEO Focus Meeting will present, as every year since 2006, a selection of papers highlighting some of the fundamental aspects of Photonics for future telecommunication. During the Plenary session, open to exhibitors, exciting and thought-provoking keynote, addresses will be delivered by top industry executives and academics. This session features talks by Tim Krause, Chief Marketing Officer at Alcatel-Lucent, USA; Mari-Noëlle Jégo-Laveissière, Executive Vice President of Innovation, Marketing and Technologies of Orange Group, France; John Bowers, Director of the Institute for Energy Efficiency and Kavli Professor of Nanotechnology, University of California Santa Barbara, USA; and Rudy De Waele, Technology Innovation Strategist, Futurist, Keynote speaker and Author/ Curator of shift 2020, UK. Notice that three Technical Symposia will put the light on some specific research and development results. One is dedicated to submarine systems for telecommunication applications and beyond, another will address interconnects in data centers. The third symposium will review past, present, and future key developments, in a special event celebrating the 40 th edition of ECOC. Finally, the Post-deadline session on Thursday afternoon will give attendees the opportunity to hear new and significant research in rapidly advancing areas at the earliest possible stage. In parallel to the conference, the ECOC exhibition covers a wide range of optical communications products and services and is expected to attract more than 300 exhibitors. Don t miss the show! This conference wouldn t be the same without its outstanding social program: a Welcome reception located on a gorgeous outdoor terrace with a spectacular view of the Mediterranean sea, promising a warm climate and all the glamour of the French Riviera in September; and a Gala Dinner at the Park de Mougins, where you will be delighted to enjoy the fine cuisine of the prestigious French caterer Lenôtre. We look forward to extending a warm welcome to you in Cannes for this 40 th edition! And also, don t forget to give the wireless network a hard time by tweeting, #ECOC2014 and giving us feedback (@ECOC_2014) all along!

8 ECOC 2014 & CLEO Focus 2014 Technical Programme Committee Subcommittee 1 Fibres, Fibre Devices and Fibre Amplifiers Subcommittee 2 Waveguide and Optoelectronic Devices 8 Foreword from the Technical Programme Commitee Chairs We would like to address our warmest thanks to the workshop organizers, to the symposium organizers but also to whole Technical Program Committee (TPC), who have done a wonderful job ensuring that ECOC remains a reference event. The field of optical communication has been transforming very fast for four decades. Recent years have not been different and we chose to adapt the count and the perimeters of the subcommittees to reflect the importance of some emerging topics like digital signal processing and data center networks. At ECOC 2014, there will be more subcommittees than conference rooms. Delegates focusing on a given topic may need to move from one room to the next. We organized sessions so as to guarantee the largest diversity of topics at every moment of the conference. We are delighted to announce the launch of a new partnership with Journal of Lightwave Technology for a special Issue on ECOC 2014 to be published early The Technical Programme Committee has shortlisted the authors of the 10% best scored papers from each subcommittee (referred to as highly scored in the programme listings), the authors of all post deadline papers, the invited speakers and the tutorial speakers, and asked all of them to submit an extended version of their work as invited paper into the special issue of Journal of Lightwave Technology. By summarizing the highlights of ECOC 2014, we believe that this special issue will become a new reference issue for the optical communication community. Liaise with your peers, build the future and enjoy the 40 th edition of ECOC!

13 Workshops Sunday, 21 September 14:00-17:30 Coffee Break 15:30-16:00 ROOM: Salle de Presse WS1: Which laser sources for silicon photonics? Organizers: Guang-Hua DUAN, III-V Lab, France Contact: Johann Peter Reithmaier, Univ. Of Kassel, Germany Contact: Scope: Silicon photonics is clearly becoming an enabling technology for the realization of integrated optical transceivers for optical interconnect applications. The key component that is difficult to realize in this technology however is the laser source. Today there are several approaches for the laser source for silicon photonics: External laser source: classical III-V laser source is used and the emitted power is distributed to the silicon chip via an optical fiber. The III-V Laser can be flip chipped into the silicon chip. Germanium epitaxially grown on silicon substrate: first electrically pumped Germanium on Si lasers have been demonstrated using highly strained and heavily doped Ge materials. III-V on Si hetero-epitaxy: again first III-V on silicon lasers have been demonstrated using Sb-based buffer. Bonding of III-V dies/wafers: Dies or full epitaxially grown III-V wafers are bonded to a processed Si wafer, and collectively processed. This Workshop intends to give an update on the state of the art on each approach, and to debate on the application fields of each approach. It is organized in the framework of the EU project SEQUOIA Energy efficient Silicon Emitter using heterogeneous integration of III-V QUantum dot and quantum dash materials. Presentations: External source approach for silicon photonics transceivers Peter De Dobbelaere, Luxtera, USA Requirements on Lasers for Silicon Photonics in Data Communications Guido Chiaretti, ST Microelectronics, Italy Hybrid Integration of Laser Diodes with Alignment Tolerant Couplers Jeremy Witzens, Univ.

14 Workshops 14 Sunday, 21 September 14:00-17:30 Coffee Break 15:30-16:00 ROOM: Salle Esterel WS2: What is the role of optical signal processing in the age of DSP? Organizers: Periklis Petropoulos, University of Southampton, UK Contact: Seb Savory, University College London, UK Contact: Scope: The face of optical communications has changed drastically over the last few years. This is due to important breakthroughs that have been achieved both in optical, but also, and perhaps even more crucially, in electronic technologies. Optical technologies and optical domain processing subsystems mature continually and address ever more sophisticated problems. However, with the widespread adoption of digital signal processing (DSP), electronic components have played an ever increasing role in optical networks. Today the vast majority of signal processing in communication systems takes place after the optical signal has been detected. Even functionalities, such as chromatic dispersion compensation, which have traditionally been considered to be better tackled in the optical domain, are now left to the realm of electronic processing. This workshop aims to assess the state-of-the-art in the processing of optical signals using either optical and/or digital techniques. It will discuss the extent to which signal processing is beneficially performed based purely on DSP and will explore those application areas where optical domain processing can play an important role. Ultimately, the workshop will try to identify those areas where optical domain processing could either co-exist with, or augment, DSP based systems. Some of the topics that will be discussed include: Is the processing of advanced modulation formats better left to DSP? Techniques for simultaneous multi-wavelength processing of optical signals. Optical signal processing techniques that are insensitive to the state-of-polarisation and/or chromatic dispersion. Optical vs electronic vs hybrid filtering and pulse shaping. What is the impact on end-to-end energy consumption of hybrid versus purely DSP based? What is the optimum balance between MIMO processing and optical techniques for mitigating modal cross-talk in spatial division multiplexed systems? Could photonic digital-to-analogue and analogue-to-digital conversion become an enabling technology for future DSP based systems? Speakers include: (order will vary according to the ensuing discussion). Presentations: Optical processing using spatial light modulators Joel Carpenter, University of Sydney, Australia Is the processing of advanced modulation formats better left to DSP? Chris Fludger, Cisco, Germany Multi-channel optical signal processing Dan Marom, Hebrew University of Jerusalem, Israel Opportunities and challenges of optical parametric processing Shu Namiki, AIST Opportunities and challenges of optical parametric processing, Japan Will optical signal processing ever be able to bridge the gap from research proof-of-concept to economically-feasible implementation?

15 Workshops Sunday, 21 September 14:00-17:30 Coffee Break 15:30-16:00 ROOM: Auditorium K WS3: Can we still trust our simulations and experiments? Organizers: Gabriel Charlet, Alcatel-Lucent Bell Labs France Contact: gabriel.charlet@alcatel-lucent.com Alexei Pilipetskii, TE SubCom Contact: apilipetskii@subcom.com Scope: Numerical simulations as well as experiments play a vital role in proving the transmission concepts and related technologies. Thus the test protocols and methods have to be up to the task and be carefully designed to avoid misleading or too optimistic results. The essential question that needs to be addressed: are the numerical simulation protocols and the experimental techniques adequate to emulate what will happen in real life (real environment)? The goal of this workshop is too examine the existing test protocols and methods in the areas of WDM simulations, laboratory and field transmission experiments, system and sub-system characterization. Numerical simulations and experiments using novel techniques that include complex modulation formats, soft decision forward error correction, real time and off-line DSP, space division multiplexing will be reviewed. The simulation/experimental specifics like for example pattern sizes, or questions like what represents the proper performance metric, Q factor or mutual information all fall in the scope of the discussion on the test protocols Presentations: The benefits of integrating numerical simulations and experiments Andre Richter, VPIphotonics, Germany On the data sequences used to assess the performance of optical transmission systems Petros Ramantanis, Alcatel-Lucent Bell Labs, France Measurement Techniques for Coherent WDM Experiments Jin-Xin Cai, TE Subcom, USA Transmission and DSP factors to consider for fruitful evaluations of WDM and SDM system performance Emmanuel Le Taillandier de Gabory and Kiyoshi Fukuchi, NEC, Japan Forward error correction and DSP design-how to ensure the design performance Takashi Sugihara, Mitsubishi Electric, Japan Optical measurements in 100 and 400 Gb/s networks: Will coherent receivers take over?

16 Workshops 16 Sunday, 21 September 14:00-17:30 Coffee Break 15:30-16:00 ROOM: Auditorium A WS4: NFV/SDN What does it mean for optical networking? Organizers: Vishnu Shukla, Verizon Contact: vishnu.shukla@verizon.com Hans-Martin Foisel, Deutsche Telekom, Germany Contact: H.Foisel@telekom.de Thierry Marcot, Orange, France Contact: thierry.marcot@orange.com Scope: Emerging high speed data centre applications require dynamic, programmable and application aware networking. SDN (Software Defined Networking), which involves separation of transport and its control plane and use of standardized protocol between them, has potential to meet such requirements. SDN with Optical transport enables automation of overall data centre and cloud networking. This workshop brings together leading experts from industry and user community to share their views on SDN technology and deployment to meet growing data applications and advantages of open network architecture. What will be typical use cases and network interfaces and protocols that industry needs to define? What are the technologies foreseen as key for Optical/Transport-SDN concept and architectures? How will the optical physical layer parameters be incorporated in overall SDN design? How SDN facilitates implementation NFV and what is the industry status? Finally, this workshop will also focus on results of various SDN related industry trials, pilots and demonstrators.

Organizers: Stephan Pachnicke, ADVA Optical Networking SE, Germany Contact: spachnicke@advaoptical.com Philippe Chanclou, Orange, France Contact: philippe.chanclou@orange.com Additional Organizers: Lena Wosinska, KTH, Sweden Contact: wosinska@kth.se Marco Ruffini, TCD, Ireland Contact: marco.ruffini@tcd.ie Scope: Next-generation optical access (NGOA) solutions are mandatory to keep pace with the steady traffic growth in residential, business and backhaul markets. The pervasiveness of high-quality multi-media applications paired with a shift from broadcast to unicast services calls for future-proof solutions which are scalable to per-user data rates in the (multi) gigabit region for residential users. At the same time backhauling and business applications require even higher data rates of 10 Gb/s and beyond. A single platform for residential, business and backhaul applications, the consolidation of local exchange offices, and the minimization of active field equipment are further NGOA drivers. They result not only in simplified network planning and more integration but also in reduced energy costs. Due to the high transmission capacity offered by optical fiber (especially as PON standards evolve towards multi-wavelength solutions) PONs can provide high speed access at lower cost compared to bespoke point-to-point architectures, making it a potentially attractive solution also for high-end business applications (e.g. mobile back-haul, logical high-capacity links for small SPs, or any institution that used to be served by point-to-point leased lines). However, designing a PON access architecture that is able to satisfy the heterogeneous requirements of different services and applications, while maintaining low cost and energy consumption, is a challenging problem. The aim of this workshop is bringing together speakers from system vendors, carriers and academia to create an open discussion. Latest results from research projects will be presented as well as current standardization efforts. A tentative list of topics and contributors is given below. This list may be later updated on the web site until the workshop actually takes place. Presentations: PART 1 - What is NG-PON2 and what will be the opportunities for operators? A system vendor s perspective Frank Effenberger, Futurewei Technologies, USA An operator s perspective Martin Carroll, Verizon, USA Multi wavelengths and the challenge to control and manage the wavelength resources Using protocols or embedded-communication channels PLOAM/OMCI messages Dora van Veen, Alcatel-Lucent, USA WDM-PON using pilot-tones Michael Eiselt, ADVA Optical Networking, Germany Using a physical layer implementation Colorless seeded WDM-PON Ola Wikström, Transmode, Sweden Self-seeded WDM-PON Paola Parolari, Politecnico di Milano, Italy PART 2 - Is frequency-division multiplexing the next degree of freedom to improve access performance?

18 Workshops 18 Sunday, 21 September 14:00-17:30 Coffee Break 15:30-16:00 ROOM: Redaction 2 WS6: Global opportunities to finance research and innovation Organizers: Carlos Lee, EPIC European Photonics Industry Consortium, Belgium Contact: carlos.lee@epic-assoc.com Scope: For companies to remain competitive, they need to remain at the leading edge of technology and continuously invest in research and innovation. Typically 10%- 20% of the company s turnover is reinvested in technology innovation. There are many options for engaging public/private support for this. The workshop will review various funding models around the world, with an emphasis on public funding but also private industry-driven models, and - as is becoming ever more important - blended public and private funding. Companies will benefit by learning of best practices, what works and what doesn t, and what models they may want to incorporate in their future innovation strategy.

44 Symposia Monday, 22 September Time 14:00-18:00 ROOM: AUDITORIUM K Tuesday, 23 September Time 14:00-18:00 ROOM: RÉDACTION 1 Wednesday, 24 September Time 08:30-12:30 ROOM: AUDITORIUM A 44 Mo.3.6 & Mo.4.6 NEW FRONTIERS IN UNDERSEA FIBER SYSTEMS Chair: José Chesnoy, Alcatel-Lucent Submarine Networks, France Abstract: This symposium will be dedicated to cover new developments in submarine systems. It will be divided in two sessions on submarine systems with short presentations and ending with open discussions between contributors and with the floor. One sub-session will be on the evolution of submarine telecom systems with the advent of 100Gbit/s and 400Gb/s transoceanic systems, advanced formats and signal processing in terminal, and reconfigurability (ROADM) and alternative new technologies for the submarine wet plant. The other sub-session will be devoted to non-conventional applications of submarine systems, from Oil & Gas platform communication and reservoir monitoring to scientific and ecologic applications, such as tsunami, earthquake detection or thermal sensor. Tu.3.5 & Tu. 4.5 SECOND OPTICAL INTERCONNECT IN DATA CENTERS SYMPOSIUM Chairs: Richard Pitwon, Seagate, United Kingdom Tolga Tekin, Fraunhofer IZM / TU Berlin, Germany Abstract: This symposium considers the state of the art in high-performance, lowenergy, low cost and small-size optical interconnect technologies across the different hierarchical levels of the Data Centre. The proliferation of mobile data applications is causing a dramatic shift in the location in which data is stored from client based or mobile storage to Cloud data centres with projections that around 60% of all data will be stored in the Cloud by The projected increase in capacity, processing power and bandwidth density in data centre environments is being addressed by the increasing deployment of optical interconnect at a rack level in current generation data centre and HPC systems. This has opened the door to faster and greener system implementations, but is not sufficient to sustain current performance trends and contain energy consumption. Photonics have now started to migrate into all levels of the interconnect hierarchy, from rack-to-rack, board-to-board, chip-to-chip and ultimately intra-chip data links, in order to meet this rapidly growing demand on digital information transmission, capture, storage and processing. This technology migration is already strongly reflected in the research, development and strategic activities of mainstream organisations in the data centre and broader ICT space and the emergence of a new technology eco-system. Motivated by recent breakthroughs and emerging technologies in short reach optical interconnect and the evolution of data centre architectures, this symposium aims to highlight the latest achievements on optical system solutions and architectures, that are placing photonics among the key enabling technologies of datacom and computercom evolution. We intend to draw out and discuss the key technology enablers and inhibitors to widespread commercial proliferation of photonic interconnect in mega data centre environments and how the optical interconnect community can collectively help to address these. The topics addressed will centre on passive and active embedded photonic interconnect technologies including optical circuit boards, polymer and glass waveguides, III-Vs, silicon photonics, photonic crystals and plasmonics in data storage. We.1.2 & We.2.2 THE 40 TH ECOC EDITION: 40 YEARS OF PROGRESS AND BEYOND Chairs: Pascale Nouchi, Thales Research and Technology, France Sébastien Bigo, Alcatel-Lucent Bell Labs, France Abstract: Within the past decades, optical communication technologies have revolutionized the way we connect with family and friends, the way we work, and the way we inform, educate and entertain ourselves. From the very beginning, ECOC has witnessed and accompanied all the related technological changes. To celebrate the 40 th edition of ECOC, this symposium intends to review some of the past key developments, but also explore some current telecom usage and future trends. We will do it not only from a technical point of view, but also from a societal and philosophical point of view. Starting with what we learnt and our expectations at the first ECOC in 1975, we will pursue with an overview of semiconductor lasers historical developments and trends, as well as guided wave and transmission developments and trends. Current usages will be explored through an example of telecom deployment for big international events. A prospective strategic view of the market and the evolution of the next ten years will then give us some insight into the traffic pattern evolution, the cloud transformation and the related network architecture changes. At last, the profound impact telecom industry is having and will continue to have on our lives will be discussed.
