  • In this paper, the scheme of a single module for simultaneous operation of all-optical computing circuits, namely half adder and half subtractor, are realized using semiconductor optical amplifier (SOA) based logic gates. Optical XOR gate by employing a SOA based Mach-Zehnder interferometer (MZI) configuration is used to get the sum and difference outputs. A carry signal is generated using a SOA-four wave mixing (FWM) based AND gate, whereas, the borrow is generated by employing the SOA-cross gain modulation (XGM) effect. The obtained results confirm the feasibility of our configuration by proving the good level of quality factor i.e. ~5.5, 9.95 and 12.51 for sum/difference, carry and borrow, respectively at 0 dBm of input power.

  • Intra- and inter- datacenter data traffic is rapidly increasing due to the spread of smart devices, cloud computing, and non-face-to-face services. Recently, 400-Gbps optical transceivers based on 100-Gbps/channel have been released primarily by major overseas companies. Various solutions for next-generation datacenter interconnect are being proposed by international standardization and multiple source agreement groups. Following this trend, ETRI has developed a 400-Gbps optical transmission/reception engine using 100-Gbps/channel light sources and photodetectors as well as a silica-based AWG. In the future, technologies of optical devices and components for intra-datacenter communication are expected to be developed based on a data rate of 200-Gbps/channel. Thus, 1.6-Tbps class optical transceivers will be released.

  • This paper presents a method of implementing efficient optical flow estimation for dynamic scene analysis using the hierarchical Hopfield neural networks. Given the two consequent inages, Zhou and Chellappa suggested the Hopfield neural network for computing the optical flow. The major problem of this algorithm is that Zhou and Chellappa's network accompanies self-feedback term, which forces them to check the energy change every iteration and only to accept the case where the lower the energy level is guaranteed. This is not only undesirable but also inefficient in implementing the Hopfield network. The another problem is that this model cannot allow the exact computation of optical flow in the case that the disparities of the moving objects are large. This paper improves the Zhou and Chellapa's problems by modifying the structure of the network to satisfy the convergence condition of the Hopfield model and suggesting the hierarchical algorithm, which enables the computation of the optical flow using the hierarchical structure even in the presence of large disparities.

  • We have developed new algorithms for solution of the three-dimensional, time-dependent Navier-Stokes equations that utilize massively parallel supercomputing implemented on the Connection Machine 5. Here, we apply these techniques to analyze he fluid flows that occur during the growth of the tow nonlinear optical crystals-potassium dihydrogen phosphate (KDP), which is producted in a novel rapid growth system under development by the Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory Laser Division, and Potassium titanyl phosphate(KTP), which is grown from a high-temperature aqueous solution.

  • A detection algorithm, based on the combined local-global (CLG) optical-flow model and Gaussian pyramid for a moving target appearing against a dynamic background, can compensate for the inadaptability of the classic Horn-Schunck algorithm to illumination changes and reduce the number of needed calculations. Incorporating the hypothesis of gradient conservation into the traditional CLG optical-flow model and combining structure and texture decomposition enable this algorithm to minimize the impact of illumination changes on optical-flow estimates. Further, calculating optical-flow with the Gaussian pyramid by layers and computing optical-flow at other points using an optical-flow iterative with higher gray-level points together reduce the number of calculations required to improve detection efficiency. Finally, this proposed method achieves the detection of a moving target against a dynamic background, according to the background motion vector determined by the displacement and magnitude of the optical-flow. Simulation results indicate that this algorithm, in comparison to the traditional Horn-Schunck optical-flow algorithm, accurately detects a moving target undergoing illumination changes against a dynamic background and simultaneously demonstrates a significant reduction in the number of computations needed to improve detection efficiency.

  • Optical nonlinear property is utilized to the wave generation, generating the beam at intended wavelength, and optical computing systems. The genetic material, which is the DNA with helical structure in nano-scale, is fascinating for optics communities due to artificially controllable sequence that determines the physical and chemical property. Nonlinearity of DNA was investigated by the four wave mixing experiment, which is with two incident beams located at 1550nm and 1650nm. The four output beams including incident beams are emitted from genetic material such as 1461nm and 1763nm by nonlinear characteristic. The 1461nm beam which is generated by four wave mixing phenomena was observed by optical spectrum analyzer.

  • This paper introduces an approach to detect motion areas of stationary objects when the camera slightly moves in the scene by computing optical flow. The flow field is computed by two pyramidal architectures of 5 levels which are built by down-sampling the size of the images by half at each level. Two pyramids of images are built and then optical flow is computed at each level. A warping process combines the information and generates a final flow field after applying edge smoothness and outliers reduction steps. Moreover, we convert the flow vectors in order of magnitude and angle to a color map using a pseudo-color palette. Experimental results in the Middlebury optical flow dataset demonstrate the effectiveness of our method compared to other approaches.

  • The evolving internet-based services demand high-speed data transmission in conjunction with scalability. The next generation optical network has to exploit artificial intelligence and cognitive techniques to cope with the emerging requirements. This work proposes a novel way to solve the dynamic provisioning problem in optical network. The provisioning in optical network involves the computation of routes and the reservation of wavelenghs (Routing and Wavelength assignment-RWA). This is an extensively studied multi-objective optimization problem and its complexity is known to be NP-Complete. As the exact algorithms incurs more running time, the heuristic based approaches have been widely preferred to solve this problem. Recently the software-defined networking has impacted the way the optical pipes are configured and monitored. This work proposes the dynamic selection of path computation algorithms in response to the changing service requirements and network scenarios. A software-defined controller mechanism with a novel packet matching feature was proposed to dynamically match the traffic demands with the appropriate algorithm. A software-defined controller with Path Computation Element-PCE was created in the ONOS tool. A simulation study was performed with the case study of dynamic path establishment in ONOS-Open Network Operating System based software defined controller environment. A java based NOX controller was configured with a parent path computation element. The child path computation elements were configured with different path computation algorithms under the control of the parent path computation element. The use case of dynamic bulk path creation was considered. The algorithm selection method is compared with the existing single algorithm based method and the results are analyzed.

  • We have investigated the chemical composition of dust grains in novae by computing the model spectra for the novae that showed temporary infrared developments shortly after their optical explosions. We find that a simple spherical dust shell models with hot blackbody central sources fit observations fairly well. Optical properties of dust grains deduced from modeling of AGB stars have been used for present calculations. We find that amorphous carbon grains appear to be the major infrared re-emission sources for the carbon-rich nova shells, and the silicate grains for the oxygen-rich nova shells.

  • A capability of performing the optical logic and arithmetic operations is followed by an effective encoding technique. In this paper, we proposed the color light encoding technique. By using this encoding technique, the space bandwidth product(SBP) is minimized in the output plane. In addition, we proposed the pre-operation pro-carry processing method that performs faster than the same time operation and carry processing method in optical computing. We proposed that the color liquid crystal device(CLCD) is used as the encoded color light input source.
