The workshop will be held in conjunction with BROADNETS 2009 in Madrid, Spain on September 14, 2009. Optical burst/packet switching (OBS/OPS) has been introduced to combine the advantages of both packet and circuit switching and is considered a promising technology for the next generation optical Internet. The success of OBS technology relies on its small control overhead for a large amount of payload data. Within this context, this workshop seeks to showcase the latest developments in OBS as for example in multi-cost burst scheduling, QoS burst routing, hybrid OBS switch architecture, application-aware OBS architecture, service oriented OBS architecture and OBS experimental test-beds.
