The need for low-cost optical transceivers in future data center networks

As the speed and number of interconnects in data centers continues to increase exponentially, architectures for data centers have to be reevaluated to enable the move to Exa-scale computing. A major challenge here is to come up with low cost and low power solutions for both compute networking and interconnects. In this talk we will highlight some of the recent work carried out in the TU/e on achieving these goals
