  3. HENP WG Goals • One of our first task upon forming our working group was to define a set of goals • These goals needed to address the range of interests and concerns of our community • We arrived at 9 goals, which are now part of our charter. • These are are the best definition of what our working group is about…

  4. HENP WG Goal #1 • Support the development and deployment of toolkits, documentation and guidelines for best practices so that existing expert knowledge and tools for high throughput data transfers, packet loss and throughput-limit monitoring, and collaborative systems are widely known. Contact: Tom Hacker/Shawn McKee (U Mich)

  5. HENP WG Goal #2 • Support the deployment of testing and monitoring tools and applications, link and site instrumentation, and a standard methodology, in association with the Internet2 End-to-End Initiative, so that all of HENP's major network paths can be adequately monitored, and used at full capability. Contact: Iosif Legrand()/Les Cottrell (SLAC)* (Status report today at WG meeting)

  6. HENP WG Goal #3 • Share information and provide advice on the configuration of routers, switches, PCs and network interfaces, and network testing and problem resolution, to achieve high performance over local and wide area networks in production. Contact: Sylvain Ravot(CERN)/<To be named> (Status report today at WG meeting)

  7. HENP WG Goal #4 • Work with the staffs of the international (Tier0), national (Tier1), regional (Tier2) and local (Tier3) Grid facilities as needed, to verify high throughput and network responsiveness, in association with the Grid projects, and for new collaborative interactive systems. Contact: Les Cottrell* (SLAC)

  8. HENP WG Goal #5 • Work with the sites, expert networking teams at national labs, universities, and computational science centers, to develop and expand on a knowledge base for high performance networks. Develop a support base of knowledgeable engineers, technicians and scientists to assist with the above goals. Contact: <TBN>

  9. HENP WG Goal #6 • Work to identify and track the programmatic network needs of the current and future generation HENP program: quantitatively in terms of bandwidths, throughputs and computer system capabilities required to provide the needed overall performance; and qualitatively in terms of the features and characteristics of existing and new systems needed for efficient distributed data access, processing and analysis as well as remote collaboration. Contact: Harvey Newman(CalTech)

  10. HENP WG Goal #7 • Work with GriPhyN, PPDG, EU DataGrid, iVDGL and other Grid projects to ensure that the US and global network infrastructures are satisfying the programmatic needs of scientists using grids. Contact: Dantong Yu(BNL)/Iosif Legrand()*

  11. HENP WG Goal #8 • Work with the network engineering staffs of the US and global research networks to help define the requirements and operational procedures for a Global Grid Operations Center, and mission-specific Grid Operations Centers as needed, so that the ensemble of research networks is able to work efficiently and provide the high level of capability required. Contact: Jim Williams (IndianaU) (Status report today at WG meeting)

  12. HENP WG Goal #9 • Investigate emerging new network technologies, such as optical switching and lambda-based network infrastructure, for applicability and potential use in support of the HENP program. If appropriate, develop a strategic plan for coordinated deployment of these technologies among HENP sites. Contact: Phil Demar(FNAL)/Bill St. Arnaud(CANARIE)
