Internet2 and examples of advanced digital technologies 1
research consortium • super-fast high bandwidth network (Abilene: OC48 2.4 Gbit/s) • new services: quality of service (QoS), new security algorithms (authentication and authorization) • new user interfaces, new tools for remote collaboration, new devices Internet2: 2
Internet2 applications: • need almost instantaneous (real-time) response, and / or • requires transmission of huge amount of data • communication between human and system • communication between humans • communication between systems 3
to provide remote access to globally distributed terabyte datasets and real-time tools for exploring that data 4
