  1. iCAIR Photonic-Empowered Applications: The Photonic TeraStream, OMNInet StarLight, and NetherLight Joe Mambretti, Director, International Center for Advanced Internet Research, Northwestern University -- http://www.icair.org Director, Metropolitan Research and Education Network, MREN -- http://www.mren.org iGRID2002 Amsterdam, Netherlands Sept. 23-26, 2002

  2. Introduction to iCAIR: Accelerating Leading Edge Innovation and Enhanced Global Communications through Advanced Internet Technologies, in Partnership with the Global Community • Creation and Early Implementation of Advanced Networking Technologies - The Next Generation Internet All Optical Networks, Terascale Networks • Advanced Applications, Middleware and Metasystems, Large-Scale Infrastructure, NG Optical Networks and Testbeds, Public Policy Studies and Forums Related to NG Networks

  3. iCAIR Photonic Empowered Applications • Multiple Global Next Generation Applications Are Currently Being Designed and Developed • Highly Distributed, including World-Wide • Resource Intensive – (Computationally Intensive, Bandwidth Intensive, Data Intensive, Storage System Intensive, et al. • Many Based on Grid Computing Infrastructure • Highly Asymmetric • Utilization of Dynamic Multi-Wavelength Lightpath • (Lambda-Switching) Provisioning • Flexible DWDM-based networking vs Today’s Point-to-Point Optical Networks • Optical Network “Aware” – A Capability for Directly Discovering and Signaling for the Required Network Resources, Including Lightpaths

  4. iCAIR Photonic TeraStream • The iCAIR iGRID2002 Demonstration Shows How Global Applications Can Use Intelligent Signaling to Provision their Own Lightpaths to Optimize network Based Resource Discovery and Performance, for example, To Enable Access To and Dynamic Interaction with Very Large Amounts of Distributed Data. • Supported by Innovative Architectural Method that Envisions: • Closer Integration Between Applications and Advanced Networks • Liberating Applications From Restrictions in Today’s Communication Infrastructure • Key technologies: • a) Intelligent application signaling, • b) Dynamic lambda provisioning on the OMNInet testbed, • c) Extensions to lightpaths through dynamically provisioned L2 and L3 configurations, in part, to allow for access to multiple types of edge resources.

  5. iCAIR iCAIR Optical Metro Net Initiative (OMNI) • Terascale NG Optical Metro Net Reference Model • Removal of Hierarchical Layers, Circuit-Orientation, Migration to Peer Model, Connectionless-Orientation • Cost/Benefit Implications of Eliminating ATM and SONET • IETF Architectural Premises, eg, • Powerful, “Smart” Core, • Complexity and Intelligence at Edge • Flexibility • Dynamic Resource Allocation and Adjustment • DWDM: From Point-to-Point to Enabling “Lambdas-on-Demand” to Dynamic Provisioning via Apps
