  1. CanalAVISTan ASEAN COST initiative on TEIN2 by Kanchana Kanchanasut as Executive Director, AVIST Professor School of Engineering and Technology Director Internet Education and Research Laboratory ASIAN INSTITUTE OF TECHNOLOGY

  2. What is CanalAVIST? • Within ASEAN framework, CanalAVIST is a part of .. • ASEAN Virtual Institute for Science & Technology (AVIST) • ASEAN Science and Technology Research and Education Network Alliance (ASTRENA) “Providing channels for seamless education, teaching, training, conferencing, lectures, and talks through ASEAN countries for ASEAN researchers and students.”

  3. Mission: “Coming together to share learning, experiences and resources to develop our people” Objectives: To provide rapid dissemination and sustainable sharing of knowledge, information, data and skills in the context of ASEAN countries for: • Life Long e-Learning (AVIST) • Channels of Events • Cumulative Repository of Recorded Learning Materials

  4. Why CanalAVIST? • AVIST • TEIN2 • Technology

  5. AVIST • www.avist.org • Life-long learning for ASEAN S&T • Introduction to Technology and Innovation Management • Sustainable Ecotourism Development • HyperCourse on Bioinformatics

  6. TEIN2 network infrastructure Before TEIN2.. • APAN (Asia-Pacific Advanced Network) • Transpac Link between Asia and USA • Other Links: SG-US (Internet2), JP-PH (Agriculture) • AI3 satellite testbed www.ai3.net • Two-way: JP, ID, MY, PH, SG, TH, VN • Unidirectional: KH, LA, MM

  7. Trans Eurasia Information Network 1st link: Korea- France 2001 (2 Mbps)

  8. From TEIN1 to TEIN2 Intra-Asia regional network Asia-Europe inter-regional links 10million Euros European Commission funding + funding by Asian partner countries TEIN2 programme aims to: build and operate a regional network promote network usage through catalysing applications train technical staff in developing countries reduce the digital divide

  9. TEIN2 is part of the regional (APAN) network fabric Launched at Halong Bay in June 2006 Provides short paths to Europe (going west) Provides short paths WITHIN the APAN region (instead of transit via US or Japan) Capacity ranges from 45Mbps to 2.5Gbps Complements the multi-Gigabit networks from Japan and Korea to the US Catalysed new NRENS in Malaysia, Indonesia and Vietnam

  10. 10 Gbps • TEIN2 network started Jan 2006, now connects: • 30million researchers • and students • 4000 institutions • 10 countries • PoPs in Singapore, HK and Beijing; NOC in HK • Funded to Sept 2008, then…… NA EU 2.5 Gbps EU 3 x STM4 Access capacities 45 – 622 Mbps

  11. TEIN2 Partner Countries-representatives Asia Pacific: Australia (AARNet) China (CERNET) Indonesia (ITB) Japan (MAFFIN, NICT, NII) Korea (NIA) Lao (LERNET) Malaysia (MDC) Philippines (ASTI) Singapore (SingAREN) Thailand (ThaiREN) Vietnam (VinaREN) Europe: France (RENATER) Netherlands (SURFnet) UK (UKERNA) DANTE Also supported by: TRANSPAC2 Juniper Networks

  12. …TEIN3 Network project! European Commission has approved funding to end 2011 Extend to South Asia Further support for application development Transfer TEIN3 programme to Asian ownership Plan for ‘TEIN4’ Vietnam the first country to submit a Letter of Intent to participate in TEIN3

  13. Timezones and Populations TEIN2: Member countries represent 1/3 of the world’s population in a timezone range spanning only 3 hours TEIN3 Potential member countries represent almost 60% of the world’s population in a timezone range spanning only 5 hours Small timezone range is critical for interactive collaboration

  14. TEIN3 Network Topology To be determined from the tender results (not pre-defined) Current TEIN2 hub locations to be reviewed Europe-Asia links going West from Asia, likely to be 622Mbps, 2.5 or 10 Gbps Intra-Asia links likely to be in range 155Mbps to 10Gbps depending on partner needs, affordability by project and partner, and topology requirements (cost for some countries still currently very high)

  15. Technology Towards open teaching and learning space

  18. Experiments [1]: • Real-time medical lectures from University Pierre Marie Curie (Paris) to University of Medical Science (Cambodia) 2006-7, DVTS over RENATER, GRANT2, TEIN2, APAN and AI3. • Royal Angkor Road Lecture from Burirum to School of Africa and Oriental Studies, Uni of London, May 18, 2007 www.interlab.ait.ac.th/burirum

  19. Initial Plan:3 countries SOAS, UK OLSR Gateway Additional OLSR Relay Node(s) Additional OLSR Relay Node(s) Mobile Vclass OLSR Node Mobile Vclass OLSR Node Site 1, Burirum, Thailand Site 2, Cambodia

  20. Actual Tele-lecture on May 18, 2007 SOAS, UK OLSR Gateway Additional OLSR Relay Node NOTE: Due to the change of plans by Dr.Surat Lertlum, lecturing from Site 2 has been cancelled. Instead, two instructor laptops have been used from the only site, Site1. Nevertheless, both instructor laptops were still utilized for lecturing during demonstration.
