Henrik Wessing serves as Associate Professor in the Department of Electrical and Photonics Engineering at the Technical University of Denmark (DTU), specializing in optical network infrastructure and high-speed networking solutions. His research directly supports UN Sustainable Development Goals through sustainable network design and energy-efficient communications. Education: Ph.D. in control of optical infrastructures, DTU (2001-2006) M.Sc.E.E. in communications, DTU (1995-2000) Student degree, Amtsgymnasiet i Solrød (1990-1993) Military service, Kgs. Artilleri Regiment (1994-...) Wessing's research centers on optical network innovation and next-generation network management , with critical contributions to power efficiency in core networks, heterogeneous multi-domain control planes, and optical packet switching. His work bridges theoretical design and industrial implementation, particularly in carrier ethernet transport and IPTV resilience systems. Current investigations focus on software-defined networking integration and alien wavelength applications in national research infrastructures. Analysis of his 2015-2021 publications reveals dominant trends in hybrid network monitoring (SDN/MPLS convergence), multi-tenant performance localization , and open optical line system optimization . These works demonstrate consistent emphasis on practical network telemetry solutions, service provider challenges, and cost-effective architectural transitions for future networks. Awards: Otto Mønsted Travel Grant (2007-2009) Wessing has supervised 1 Ph.D. candidate, 29 M.Sc. students, and 2 B.Sc. projects while teaching 12 specialized courses. His grant leadership includes European projects (MUPBED, ALPHA) and Danish-funded initiatives: Major Projects: Road to 100 Gigabit Ethernet (2008-), HIPT for IPTV/VoIP (2006-2010) Industry Collaboration: Alcatel partnerships on optical wavelength converters and 3R regeneration He maintains active industry engagement through European consortia and NREN collaborations, focusing on real-world deployment of control plane architectures and optical network verification systems.
