Brumley, Senior Managing Director, Laser Light Communications, LLC 10:40 Morning coffee

2 11:20 Interactive Panel Session How will switching evolve? Will it be ROADMs, OTNs, packet OTN and WDM packet vs circuit switch What is the right mix and why? Evaluating the different options in terms of cost, flexibility relation and customer requirements Quantifying the benefits of integrated OTN switching: efficient capacity utilisation, quick service turn-up, policy-based provisioning, and rapid failure restoration Incorporating GMPLS control plane intelligence to ensure network restoration and automating circuit turn up What does SDN mean for the emerging converged optical transport layer with integrated Scott T. Wilkinson, Marketing Director, MRV Communications A Representative, Laser Light Communications, LLC Sheldon Walklin, Chief Technology Officer, Optelian 11:55 Examining the adoption of high end telecom optical technologies for applications in datacenters Development of 10G optics for datacenters a decade long project Early adopters embrace 40GigE optical connectivity in datacenters 100G optics remains a telecom-centric technology Active Optical Cables and Embedded Optical Modules for next generation datacom and telecom systems Vladimir Kozlov, Founder and CEO, LightCounting 12:20 Case Study deployment of high bandwidth Data Center Interconnection using multiple 10GE wavelengths for a CDN Understanding the drivers for the CDN customer to upgrade their network Designing a metro DWDM solution that met the operational criteria and minimized costs Delivering maximum functionality while consuming the fewest RU possible Providing energy-efficient solution that consumes less electricity for operation and cooling Deliver a system that enables a rapid and inexpensive provision of wavelengths potentially without on-site optical engineering expertise Sergiu Rotenstein, Director Product Line Management, MRV Communications 12:45 Lunch 13:45 Afternoon chair: Jon Baldry, Board Member, WDM PON Forum Chairman s introduction

3 Cloud, data centres and Transport SDN 13:55 Evolving needs to support data centers and enabling cloud services How are Cloud applications and convergence, along with changing business models driving service provider offerings? Identifying the next set offerings required to enable flexibility, scalability and integration with higher network layers. Technology enablers supporting this evolution. Allan Langfield, Senior Director of Product Development, Comcast Business 14:20 Networks connecting data centres, minimising low latency Learning from financial sector Drake Livingston, SVP - Spread Networks Service Provider 14:45 Understanding and meeting enterprise and Data Centre transport needs Understanding data centre structure and how this is driving high speeds Determining the business opportunities for data centres with support from higher capacity networks Achieving low-power and low-cost high bandwidth solutions between data centres Is it just about capacity? Managing latency Enabling the development of mega data centres what are these data centre needs? Flattening data centre topologies and the implications Joe Weinman, Senior Vice President, Cloud Services & Strategy, Telx Service Provider 15:10 Internet Exchange - a datacenter for routers Optical Network Evolution for Internet Exchanges 100G deployments, and future optical network evolution Bartek Raszczyk, Senior Network Engineer, London Internet Exchange (LINX)

4 15.35 What does SDN mean for the emerging converged optical transport layer with integrated Determining the most efficient place for SDN within the network; at the core or outside? Is SDN the new optical control plane? What is the likely development path, and how will it integrate with today's control and management paradigm? What impact will we see on large optical networks? Metro? LH? How will SDN be used within the network as capacity grows? Should software innovation in the SDN era come from the hardware suppliers or does it mandate innovation from a new crop of independent software vendors? Mitchell H Auster, Market Development, Ciena 16:00 Afternoon tea 16:30 Interactive Panel Session Optical Transport SDN Making the business case for Software Defined Networking (SDN) for the WAN Transport Network What is Transport SDN and how can carriers, content providers and Cloud service providers benefit? What services can be derived from an SDN-based transport network? Can SDN create value from data by creating business intelligence? Is SDN just for the tier 1 carriers? Which technology combinations work and which don t work? Panel Session Chair: Shan Wey, Representative, WDM PON Forum Young Lee, Optical Transport WG, ONF Dave Brown, Board Member, OIF Uwe Fischer, CTO & Senior Vice President, Product Management, Coriant Greg Nehib, Senior Marketing Manager, Cisco Systems Mitchell H Auster, Market Development, Ciena 17:05 SDN Standards- Open flow Outlining the work of the Open Networking Foundation (ONF) to extend OpenFlow functionality for the WAN Defining technical specifications that will enable the OpenFlow spec to "talk" to optical equipment Young Lee, Optical Transport WG, ONF

5 17:25 OIF - SDN drivers and evolutions Identifying the key requirements and building blocks for the development and deployment of interoperable optical networking solutions and services. Addressing the key carrier requirements for SDN in optical/transport environments Dave Brown, Board Member, OIF 17:45 Examining the evolution and application of OTN standards ITU-T G.872 Outlining work on the G.7044 standard for hitless adjustment of ODU flex Stephen Trowbridge, Chairman, ITU-T Study Group Close of conference
