Mathematical Techniques in Optical Networks
The workshop Mathematical Techniques in Optical Networks is conducted under the auspices of NETWORKS and The Research Center for Integrated Nanophotonics at Eurandom from 16 - 18 April 2018.
Optical networks are a key part of current day technological progress. They form the backbone of all future communication networks like 5G, internet of things and such. Optical Networks form a very important field of research in engineering, and also pose a lot of interesting mathematical problems.
The goal of the workshop Mathematical Techniques in Optical Networks is to bring together the communities of engineering and mathematics. The event will be set up in such a way that researchers, especially young mathematicians, receive tutorials and lectures from experts in the field of Optical Networks. The speakers will address challenges in the existing technology and ways to broaden the scope of these networks through mathematical tools.
The workshop consists of talks and tutorials by leading researchers in the field who will cover topics like architecture, stochastics, optimization, machine learning, in the context of Optical Networks. There will also be several timeslots for contributed talks by young researchers working on similar problems, and a poster session.
