Workpackage Modifications Workpackage 1: Project Management Workpackage leader - CIP No change to workpackage tasks. The deliverable dates have been modified and are detailed in the new deliverable table included later. There is the third year technical and administrative report at M36 as planned, but in addition, there is now an administrative report at M42

Workpackage Modifications Workpackage 4: Optical processing sub-system development Workpackage leader - UCC The technical activity in this workpackage is unchanged. The end date for the activity is now M34. This reflects the delay associated with delivery of the integrated optical components. Workpackage 5: Wirespeed photonic firewall security validation Workpackage leader - Avanex Technical activity is unchanged. The workpackage end date has shifted by six months.

Workpackage Modifications Workpackage 6: Manufacturability, scalability and functionality study Workpackage leader - CIP Technical activity is unchanged. The workpackage end date has shifted by six months. Workpackage 7: Dissemination and exploitation Workpackage leader - CIP Technical activity is unchanged. The workpackage end date has shifted by six months.

Workplan

Deliverable List

Avanex Avanex (now Oclaro) closing facilities in France and leaving project Schedule likely to be end June As far as the technical activity on WISDOM is concerned (for the workpackages currently open), Avanex were responsible for: –Development of the electronic control boards to drive the optical hardware (WP4) –Management of WP5 (Final demonstrator), with their role being in part providing support for the troubleshooting of the boards –Support on WP6 in terms of manufacturability and scalability –Support on WP7 for exploitation and dissemination.

Proposal for Work Handover WP4 contribution –Complete as the electronic boards have been delivered. –Initial testing both by UCC and CIP. –Ongoing troubleshooting support (part of WP5 activity) will now be compromised. The proposal is for UCC and CIP to accelerate the testing and validation of those boards over the next two weeks and work with Avanex to resolve any technical issues. In addition, Avanex have agreed to provide the technical drawings, supplier details, etc to allow partners to work through any remaining issues should they arise, and have further boards made should that be required. Management of WP5 will be transferred to CIP as we (with BT) will be setting up the final demonstrator in Ipswich. Avanex have already provided contributions to WP6 in terms of the scalability and manufacturability of the electronics. Any further contributions from them on that WP will be provided before the end of June. Avanex will be included on additional publications arising from the use of the electronic boards and results of the final demonstrator. The other partners will absorb any additional tasks under WP7.

Next 6 months WP3 & WP4 completing –Electronic controls and firmware will have been delivered –Expect first iteration of hybrid circuits (June) WP5 will become primary focus –Need to decide on final demonstrator –Location - CIP? –Available equipment & leasing? WP6 –Scaleability in terms of speed (line rate), complexity (number of gates per device) and rule checking scaleability WP7 –ECOC09 –Further discussions with system companies
