The Lightwave Research Laboratory, led by Professor Keren Bergman, aims to investigate the realization of dynamic optical data routing in transparent optical interconnection networks, developing potentially disruptive technology solutions with ultra-high throughput, minimal access latencies, and low power dissipation that remains independent of data capacity, ultimately capitalizing on the enormous bandwidth advantage enabled by dense wavelength division multiplexing.
If you are interested in joining our research group, we offer numerous undergraduate, graduate, and post-graduate research opportunities.
We have several ongoing research projects, primarily focusing in the areas of:
Some of our collaborators and funding agencies include:
Silicon Photonic Devices for Networks-on-Chip (NoCs)
Global Environment for Network Innovations (GENI): Embedded Real-Time Measurements (ERM)
On- and Off-Chip Photonic Communications for Multi-Processor Systems
Impairment-Aware Traffic Engineering Using Cross-Layer Protocols
Cross-Layer Simulations of Fast Packet Protection Mechanisms
