Booknews
Not a text on today's technology, but a discussion of the philosophy of optical interconnection providing verifiable technological thinking and examples that is intended to be valid for a long time. Specifically addresses how optical designs handle the efficient routing and coupling of photonic information, a topic often glossed over in the rush to sell optical processing. The topics include motivational aspects, current approaches and limitations, and applications. For designers of circuits and devices. Annotation c. Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
