  1. NET@EDU ICS Survey Summary SnowmassAugust 2001

  2. Interpretation of Data • Data was adjusted for assumed answers: • Example: deployed some VoIP implies technical trials and talked to vendors. • Summarized essay questions as much as possible and probably too much in some cases. • Please check the interpretations - let me know what needs to be fixed before we publish the results.

  3. Demographic Information • Most respondents were medium to large schools. • Students: Max: 60,000, Min: 1,100, Mean: 24,000 • Telco: Max: 35,000, Min: 1,200, Mean: 14,000 • Data: Max: 100,000, Min: 2,000, Mean: 23,000 • Most were R-1

  4. Organized for Integrated Services • To what extent have you organized for integrated services? • None: 0% • Planning: 80% • Operations: 60% • Cost Recovery: 40% • Organizational: 70%

  5. Production Services • To what extent have you deployed production services? • None: 0% • Thinking about it: 90% • Talked to vendors: 90% • Some technical trials: 80% • Informal (unwritten plan): 50% • Formal written plan: 20%

  6. Production Services Continued • To what extent have you deployed production services? • Implemented limited VoIP: 60% • Implemented significant VoIP: 10% • Production video conferencing: 70% • Production video streaming: 50% • Removed legacy systems: 5%

  7. Campus Motivation for ICS • Why are you pursuing convergence? • Not pursuing convergence: 10% • Combined facilities: 60% • Enhanced applications: 80% • Long distance savings: 20% • Combined staffing: 55% • Other: 30%

  8. Essay Questions • What does convergence mean at your institution? • Generally accepted as technical, organizational, and financial convergence • What new applications do you envision? • Web integration, Call Center, CRM systems, etc. • Unified messaging and wireless • More integration of web/video into instruction • XML-based information access • A new killer application will emerge

  9. Interesting Topics • Will convergence lead to more, less, or the same amount of central management? • Is the answer influenced by existing campus practice? • Do potential new applications justify ICS by themselves? • Should we also focus on MAN applications? • Is there a new killer application on the horizon?
