Summary
The Case for Photonics
With the already increasing demands for network and computing capacity, AI will drive an even more urgent need for a new paradigm of an infrastructure that is faster, more sustainable and secure to deliver on the promise of leading-edge innovations. Implementation of the IOWN concept, which will spearhead the transition from electronics to photonics in networks and computing, will be a key contributor to a more sustainable and scalable AI infrastructure. This session discusses real-world examples of IOWN at work, with use cases and proof of concepts that are currently in the field.
