Closing in on the Dream
What we really have to do is eliminate distance
between individuals who want to interact with
other people and with other computers. ? Larry
Smarr, Director National Center for
Supercomputing Applications, UIUC
Using satellite technologydemo of What It might
be like to have high-speed fiber-optic links
between advanced computers in two different
geographic locations. ? Al Gore, Senator Chair,

Some Scientific Applications Require
Experimental Optical Networks

• Large Data Challenges in Neuro and Earth Sciences
• Each Data Object is 3D and Gigabytes
• Data are Generated and Stored in Distributed
  Archives
• Research is Carried Out on Federated Repository
• Requirements
• Computing Requirements ? PC Clusters
• Communications ? Dedicated Lambdas
• Data ? Large Peer-to-Peer Lambda Attached Storage
  
• Visualization ? Collaborative Volume Algorithms
• Response
