| 150 | The ERM Box is a robust, universally deployable device that consists of a suite of software and a set of hardware components that can support embedded real-time optical layer measurement, and further utilize this measurement capability to support cross-layer control. The following codes are soon to be released: |
| 151 | |
| 152 | - NetFPGA Development Board HW Verilog Code |
| 153 | -> SOA Controller Code - used to control the gain of the Semiconductor Optical Amplifier (SOA) |
| 154 | - Network Equipment Interface |
| 155 | -> perfSONAR MP code used to obtain optical layer measurements from the Polatis OXC and Infinera DTN (see IMF code release) |
| 156 | -> Software interface to obtain optical layer measurements from the Fujitsu FlashWave 9500 and a specially-built optical performance monitor (OPM) |
| 157 | |
| 158 | Additionally, we developed a simulation environment with networking model incorporating the ERM Box and cross-layer measurement capabilities enabling experimental modeling in large scale networks. These simulation source codes will also be released soon. |
