  1. George Laskaris New Jersey’s College & Universities integrating technologies into instruction, research and public service through an enhanced statewide data/video network

  2. About NJEDge.Net • State Research and Education Network • Provide a statewide technology infrastructure for 55 colleges, universities and K-12 schools • Created to support new forms of technology enabled collaboration and advanced applications and to, • Leverage the collective buying power of the membership to achieve economies of scale

  3. Network Resources • Statewide regional optical backbone • Broadband Internet Service Provider (1400+Mb) • Comprehensive Voice Services • Sophisticated video conferencing & distance learning capabilities • Streaming video resources and video-on-demand • Provide regional access to Internet2 • Interoperability with the K-12 Video Portal (Access New Jersey) • Shared access to Satellite Uplink/Downlink

  4. Three-Tier National Networking Model • Campus  Regional  National • Regional Networks are the middle tier and bridge of the Three-Tier Model • There is a critical role to be performed between a national network and a campus network • NJEDge is a New Jersey’s Regional Network supporting research and education

  5. Important migration to Regional Optical Networks (RONs) • Now providing sufficient bandwidth to support new classes of end-to-end service • Ultra- broadband last mile connectivity • Delivering unlimited bandwidth in a cost effective manner, and • Providing new value added services such as peering and dynamic optical waves

  6. Performance Strides in the Regional Tier are making new applications possible • Large-scale network attached storage/DR • Academic video-on-demand content repositories • Statewide centrally hosted course management • Sakai, Moodle, Blackboard, WebCT • Optical waves dedicated to individual researchers • Shared GRIDS and research repositories • Federated identity management

  7. Internet2 and Next Generation Networks in Higher Education • Providing “orders of magnitude” or a 100-fold increase in bandwidth capacity over current networks • Providing advanced communications and collaborative opportunities between researchers around the world • Enabling ambitious large-scale next generation projects and applications that support new research models • Beginning to re-shape federal funding policies that favor diverse collaborative research paradigms

  8. Global Lambda Integrated Facility (GLIF)Integrated Optical Lambda Network Many Countries are Interconnecting Optical Networks to form a Global SuperNetwork www.glif.is Created in Reykjavik, Iceland Aug 2003 Visualization courtesy of Bob Patterson, NCSA
