Internet2 Network Infrastructure

• Backbones operate at 2.4 Gbps (OC48) to 10 Gbps
  (OC192) capacity today
• GigaPoPs provide regional high-performance
  aggregation points
• Local campus networks provide 100 Mbps to the
  desktop

• Overall direction by Internet2, with
• Qwest Corporation
• Nortel
• Cisco Systems
• Indiana University

Applications
23
Internet2 Applications

• What are Internet2 applications?
• They deliver qualitative and quantitative
  improvements in how we conduct research and
  engage in teaching and learning
• They require advanced networks to work

24
Different Disciplines/Contexts

• Sciences
• Arts
• Humanities
• Health care
• Business/Law
• Administration

• Library
• Classroom
• Clinic
• Office
• Laboratory
• Dorm room

25
For example Remote Collaboration
Virtual Room Videoconferencing System (VRVS)
the Access Grid Support multipoint
video- conferencing, where distributed reflectors
spread computationally expensive responsibility
26
For example Science Engineering
High Energy and Nuclear Physics (HENP) Generating
multi-petabyte datasets, gigabytes per second per
experiment, requires a cascading data storage
model, near-zero packet loss per data stream, and
a distributed database for end-user data
manipulation. Each experiment requires input
from hundreds of researchers around the
world. Network for Earthquake Engineering
Simulation (NEESGrid) Running hybrid experiments,
synchronizing physical and computational
experiments. Synchronizing large volumes of data
of different types sensor, video, etc.
27
For example Health Sciences

• 3D Brain Map
• Visualization of data real-time MRI, previously
  stored data, etc.
• Computational information transferred to
  supercomputers and used to understand brain
  functions in real time
• Very large multi-dimensional, multi-modal,
  time-varying data sets
• Biomedical Informatics Research Network (BIRN)
• Extremely large data sets and repositories
• Dynamically generate 3D visualizations from
  medical records
• Generating 36Gbytes/day, so new models for
  search, retrieval and analysis will be necessary
