Professor Zhou (ECE). Shanghai Jiao Tong University (SJTU). CPR host in service since January. Performance is almost unusable. OK for email but not video conferencing. NSF task force addressing “well-known” routing issues in Asia. China Office of Information Technology http://www.oit.gatech.edu
Fiber to China Source: GLIF Office of Information Technology http://www.oit.gatech.edu
CERNET unable to improve performance. Talking to Shanghai Telecom, PCCW. Dedicated link to Beijing or Hong Kong and peer with U.S.-Based international network. China Office of Information Technology http://www.oit.gatech.edu
Professor Madisetti (ECE) Mumbai or Hyderabad Professor Weber (EAS) Also Bangladesh Fledgling NREN Recommended 2Mbps to each University Internet2 partner India Office of Information Technology http://www.oit.gatech.edu
Routing is still across commercial links. Expect Indian NREN will connect to Europe (Géant). SEAMEWE4 has 1.2 Tbps of capacity. Perhaps can carve out dedicated link to GT. Opportunities remain to be explored. India Office of Information Technology http://www.oit.gatech.edu
Building productive relationships. Providing service to faculty. Keep reaching out. CPR host should be standard equipment. Leverage other projects to break down the path. Summary Office of Information Technology http://www.oit.gatech.edu
