Looking at past trends shows that evolutionary electronic solutions will neither reduce the data communications energy nor substantially increase the bandwidths, and certainly not both at the same time.

For communication beyond the individual socket, photonic interconnects offer the best path to low-­‐bit transfer energies and the bandwidth scaling needed to CPU track increases in performance [Ast09]. Emerging silicon photonic technologies for interconnect fabrics have radically different performance characteristics when compared to existing CMOS electronics solutions.

There are compelling arguments showing that silicon photonics is a foundational technology for high-­‐ end systems [Bea11]. In the 2022 timeframe, high-­‐end computing is expected to be in the exascale range. If an exa-­‐operation application requires a communication ratio of only 0.04 bytes/operation, and each message goes on average through three hops (a very aggressive estimate), the total communication rate adds up to 40 TB/s, which at 4 pJ/bit per hop is about 4 MW, or 20 percent of the expected 20-­‐MW system energy budget. Aiming at 4 pJ/bit per hop implies that the link energy has to be CONTENTS within 1 pJ/bit. Pervasive silicon photonics, all the way down to the compute elements, is the only technology that can reach this Figure objective ( 10 ). 1. INTRODUCTION...... 5 2.

This capability of OpenFlow of isolated virtual networks suggests per-­‐virtual-­‐network controllers. This in turn leads to the concept of a network hypervisor, which plays the same role for multiple network controllers that a hypervisor does for separate virtual machines on a single common substrate. The prototype twork ne hypervisor is the FlowVisor, which partitions the matching header spaces among component controllers and permits each controller to write rules over its own header space (the “flowspace”). Rules from the controllers are sent to the FlowVisor, which checks to ensure that each controller is writing rules over its own flowspace and then transmits those rules to the switches.

Further, since the network itself is reduced to a collection of forwarding tables in an SDN, verification of network rules is much simpler. Verification of networks is difficult today because the control plane is embedded in the network and consists of switches running a distributed, Turing-­‐complete computation; verification of this is undecidable. However, packets are always forwarded by the data plane; checking the packet-­‐forwarding rules for compliance with desired properties verifies the network. Mathematically, verifying a forwarding ruleset is identical to verifying a loop-­‐free logic circuit. This problem is far easier fying than veri Turing machines (it is NP-­‐complete instead of undecidable) and has been successfully attacked over -­‐ a 25 year period in the VLSI industry.

3.12.3 Challenges The primary challenge in implementing OpenFlow is that current-­‐generation switch hardware was built for a very different networking use case, and existing switch ASIC pipelines fall far short of that required to implement a pure OpenFlow protocol. In order to explore alternatives to traditional forwarding with off-­‐the-­‐shelf hardware, we need to explain how that hardware is built to exploit the realities of existing CONTENTS forwarding rules and whether it is suitable for new forwarding requirements. 1.

In a way, technology is about to be commoditized, and we need to appre- ciate that its value is in the economic, social, and cultural domain. These aspects are so intertwined with technology that we can no longer claim that technology is neutral. We need to consider in our publications and conferences voices from other sectors and progress the whole puzzle (Saracco, personal communication). CS must take responsibility for the beneficial implementation of technology.

The opportunities for IEEE Computer Society in 2022 are endless, and the future is exciting.

CS must take responsibility for the beneficial implementation of technology.
