Abstract

We introduce a software framework for design and programming of large scale programmable photonic chips. The framework facilitates design, simulation,
configuration and measurements of reconfigurable waveguide meshes, managing hundreds of actuators and translate high-level user requirements into driving strategies of the electronic channels.
