A Agenda d • Introducing IN@IU • Introducing Jim Williams Introducing Jim Williams • TP3 and ACE, how they fit into the global cyberinfrastructure • Network ‐ based services • Supporting research and education with better tools • Working together W ki t th Jim Williams ‐ williams@indiana.edu
• An integral part of the university’s efforts in both the academic A i t l t f th i it ’ ff t i b th th d i and the technology spaces • Long term commitment to international activities • 1998 TransPAC circuit, initiated by Michael McRobbie, now IU President • Operational support for both US national R&E networks through Global NOC http://globalnoc.iu.edu • Support of GENI http://gmoc.grnoc.iu.edu/ • REN ‐ ISAC –Host of this cybersecurity consortium Jim Williams ‐ williams@indiana.edu

TP3 – Connecting Asia and the US TP3 – Connecting Asia and the US US lead partner: Indiana University Partners: APAN, TEIN3, NICT ‐ Japan, NII ‐ Japan, CERNET ‐ China, Data Logistics Toolkit, et al l Multiple 10G connections from the US to Asia Connections now reaching Southeast Asia and South Asia Connection to TEIN3 network provides link to Europe Connection to GLORIAD/Taj network will provide additional link to Asia and Europe Peering with Internet2/NLR on US West Coast (Pacific Wave) Jim Williams ‐ williams@indiana.edu
US lead partner: Indiana University US lead partner: Indiana University Partners: DANTE, NYSERNet, Internet2, Data Logistics Toolkit, et al Multiple 10G connections between the US and Europe Connections continued across GN3 and TEIN3 to Asia and TP3 Connection via EUMEDCONNECT to North Africa Connection via EUMEDCONNECT to North Africa Peering with Internet2/NLR on US East Coast Will partner with GLORIAD to provide backup and service redundancy Will t ith GLORIAD t id b k d i d d Jim Williams ‐ williams@indiana.edu
Network ‐ based Services: Accountability and Service k b d b l d Utilization statistics in a useable form e2e measurement – what researchers are really concerned about Custom networks and connections (dynamic circuits provisioned by researchers) Custom networks and connections (dynamic circuits provisioned by researchers) As network operations become more transparent, network operators must become more accountable As networks become “more global”, network operators must develop tools and mechanisms for shared/distributed operations. See: http://groups geni net/geni/wiki/K ‐ GENI See: http://groups.geni.net/geni/wiki/K ‐ GENI Security, security, security….how can we cooperatively attack this problem? One possible component: http://www.ren ‐ isac.net/ses/ Jim Williams ‐ williams@indiana.edu
Supporting Research and Education through Better Tools Development of tools to make researcher ‐ provisioned connections and networks much simpler (no engineer involvement). Better collaboration tools using “social media ‐ based” tools https://hubzero.org/ Researcher ‐ specific tools, such as the Data Logistics Toolkit (DLT), need to become fully developed research aids http://code.google.com/p/dlt/ b f ll d l d h id htt // d l / /dlt/ Outreach activities, particularly in developing areas, designed to increase international research and education collaborations, e.g. g http://usindiaworkshop.indiana.edu/ Jim Williams ‐ williams@indiana.edu
W Working Together ‐‐ Within IRNC and Globally ki T h Wi hi IRNC d Gl b ll IRNC P IRNC ProNet = International Research Network Connections – Production N t I t ti l R h N t k C ti P d ti Network Environment Provisioning is fairly simple. Coordination is rather more complex g y p p All IRNC projects must work together to develop integrated US international R/E network infrastructure (extending IRNC to developing areas) and address the impending “flood of data” from many sources (bio areas) and address the impending flood of data from many sources (bio, climate, HEP, astronomy) GLORIAD/Taj and TransPAC3/ACE, in particular, have similar goals and plan on sharing resources Jim Williams ‐ williams@indiana.edu
