  1. NSF International Research Network Connections (IRNC) Program: TransLight/StarLight Maxine D. Brown and Thomas A. DeFanti Electronic Visualization Laboratory UNIVERSITY OF ILLINOIS AT CHICAGO Internet2 Spring Member Meeting International Task Force April 24, 2006

  2. TransLight/StarLight Funds Two Trans-Atlantic Links GÉANT PoP @ AMS-IE NetherLight StarLight MAN LAN • OC-192 routed connection between MAN LAN in New York City and the Amsterdam Internet Exchange that connects the USA Abilene and ESnet networks to the pan-European GÉANT2 network • OC-192 switched connection between StarLight in Chicago and NetherLight in Amsterdam that is part of the GLIF LambdaGrid fabric

  3. TransLight/StarLight NYC/AMS Network Engineering • Phase 2 will continue to support production IP services between GÉANT2 and MAN LAN, but doesn’t require a router in NYC and will support lightpaths if and when needed

  4. TransLight/StarLight CHI/AMS Network Engineering

  5. iGrid 2005September 26-30, 2005, San Diego, California • 4th community-driven biennial International Grid event • To accelerate the use of multi-10Gb international and national networks • To advance scientific research • To educate decision makers, academicians and industry researchers on the benefits of hybrid networks • 49 demonstrations showcasing global experiments in e-Science and next-generation shared open-source LambdaGrid services • 20 countries: Australia, Brazil, Canada, CERN, China, Czech Republic, Germany, Hungary, Italy, Japan, Korea, Mexico, Netherlands, Poland, Russia, Spain, Sweden, Taiwan, UK, USA • 25 lectures, panels and master classes as part of a symposium • 100Gb into the Calit2 building on the UCSD campus • All IRNC links used!

  6. Bandwidth Usage Encouraged! Most extreme usage done at conferences NetherLight StarLight GÉANT2 PoP MAN LAN SC|05 iGrid 2005 iGrid 2005 SC|05

  7. Real-Time Global e-Very Long Baseline Interferometry:Exploring TransLight/StarLight Persistent Connectivity • iGrid Goal: Real-time e-VLBI data correlation from telescopes in USA, Sweden, Netherlands, UK and Japan with MIT Haystack correlator • Achieved 512Mb transfers from USA and Sweden for iGrid 2005 Optical connections dynamically managed using the DRAGON control plane and Internet2 HOPI network Source: Jerry Sobieski, DRAGON

  8. Applications Needing Deterministic Networks:Guaranteed Bandwidth, Latency, Scheduling Coming Summer 2006! Special iGrid 2005 issue 25 Refereed Papers! Future Generation Computer Systems/ The International Journal of Grid Computing: Theory, Methods and Applications, Elsevier, B.V. Guest Editors Larry Smarr, Tom DeFanti, Maxine Brown, Cees de Laat Volume 19, Number 6, August 2003Special Issue on iGrid 2002
