Franco Callegati devoted hei interest to the broad topic of
broadband and multi-service telecommunication networks. He
contributed to architectural definition and performance evolution
of advanced networks in various scenarios.
The more advanced research, including several theoritical aspects
of performance modelling and algorithms definition, is today mainly
focusing on optical networking, in particular:
network architectures for optical packet switching
implementation of control functions for optical routers
analysis and dimensioning of optical buffers
architecture for all optical switching fabrics
contention resolution in optical packet switching
routing in optical packet switching
TCP over optical networks
application aware optical networks for advanced IT
applications
Franco Callegati in these years also carried on more short terms
research topics such as:
implementation of Internet based service with
micro-controllers
implementation of communications and collaborative tools for large
communities of researchers
network security
