Network neutrality-related regulatory decisions, or the lack thereof, will impact not only the business landscape for internet service providers (ISPs), content providers, and application innovators, but will have a profound effect on the user experience. Less widely publicized is the impact these decisions will have on optical network technologies and architectures. This symposium will illuminate the fundamental issues around net neutrality and the potential impact of various proposals.
