Scientific Towns in Moscow Region 28 out of 73 ST’s in Russia Logical Network of ST NGI - IPv6, Yaroslavl, 21-22 May 2002
Main goals Integration of IS and Resources: • integration of the ST’s IS • accelerated access to IS of ST’s • search on the subspace of ST’s • index file exchange • piloting new technologies Logical Network of ST NGI - IPv6, Yaroslavl, 21-22 May 2002
Main problems - 1. Connectivity Connectivity and ISP variety: • M9-IX • Frankfurt-Teleglobe (Rostelecom) • M9-IX - regions (Kaluga, …) • about 27 ISP’s at 17 ST’s • poor connectivity even within ST Logical Network of ST NGI - IPv6, Yaroslavl, 21-22 May 2002
Main problems - 2. Organization Difficulties Departmental variety: • Russian Academy of Sciences • Universities (national, regional, …) • Ministeries • Private R&D companies Logical Network of ST NGI - IPv6, Yaroslavl, 21-22 May 2002
Solutions - 1.Cache-mesh technology. Architecture of the Distributed Depository of e-Documents: • one multi-functional server at each ST • exchange via cache-mesh (DDeD) • Squid Web-Proxy Cache, www.squid-cache.org • tested under grant RFBR 98-07-90293 • and grant NSKT-NVSh 5.1.1 • parent cache at SMBN (YuMOS) NOC Logical Network of ST NGI - IPv6, Yaroslavl, 21-22 May 2002
Solutions - 2.Cache-mesh technology. Cache-mesh Technical Details: • connectivity dBase (hop #’s, RTT values) • connectivity dBase exchange • dynamical optimization of the route • easy to configure hierarchy • document retrieval speedup • cache-mesh route & IP routing table Logical Network of ST NGI - IPv6, Yaroslavl, 21-22 May 2002
Main Problem - 3.Information Flood and Garbage. Search Troubles: • www.google.com.ru • «IPv6» - 984 000 references • «IPv6 Linux» - 183 000 refs • «IPv6 IPv4» - 169 000 refs • «IPv6 gateway» - 55 900 refs • «IPv6 Linux gateway» - 22 000 refs • «IPv6 gateway LAN» - 22 000 refs Logical Network of ST NGI - IPv6, Yaroslavl, 21-22 May 2002
Solutions - 3.Harvest & Dublin Metacode. Gathering and Indexing: • gathering on the web-space of ST’s • file indexing • exchange of file indexes between servers • query to local server • usage of Metadata (http://dublincore.org) Logical Network of ST NGI - IPv6, Yaroslavl, 21-22 May 2002
Solutions - 4.Harvest & Dublin Metacode. Harvest technology: • Harvest (http://harvest.sourceforge.net) • FreeBSD & Linux • tested by IRiD - RFBR grant 01-07-90395 • and PhysNet - EPS sponsored project Logical Network of ST NGI - IPv6, Yaroslavl, 21-22 May 2002
