The Information Society Technologies (IST) programme is part of the Fifth Framework for Research of the European Union, and provides funding for research over the period 1998-2002. The programme covers a very wide area of objectives and topics and is structured as four inter-related key actions, namely: systems and services for the citizen; new methods of work and e-commerce; multimedia contents and tools; essential technologies and infrastructure. In addition, two supporting actions are defined: future and emerging technologies; research networking. Research on optical technologies and networks (Houghton, 2001) is covered in a number of areas. This paper describes the current active research projects for optical networks and components.
