International eScience
> International large instrument facilities are the low
hanging fruit for eScience
> Astronomy, eVLBI, high energy physics, synchrotrons,
ocean observatories
> CERN LHC, ITER, Neptune, JIVE, SKA, LOOKING,
OPtiPuter, Exoplanet Global Optical Telescope Network
> Most data sets are still sent by tape
S2 VLBI Space Observatory
GLOBAL RING NETWORK FOR
ADVANCED APPLICATIONS
DEVELOPMENT
Russia-China-USA-Korea-Canada-Netherlands
Science & Education Network
GLIF links
UCLP Demonstrations
Overall Network Architecture
> A local end-user will create the LightPaths between each participant to
Korea via UCLP and get the HDTV stream sequentially.

Collaboration
> This data was transferred to AARNet’s International GigaPoP using a
dedicated GbE path provided by CeNTIE, one of Australia’s Advanced
Network Program (ANP) initiatives
> Transit to Pacific Wave (US) was engineered on a path of the northern
10Gbps circuit of SXTransPORT
> AARNet’s was connected to a CANARIE (CA) switch and a User Controlled
LightPath (UCLP) set up at 1GbE to the Joint Institution for VLBI in Europe
(JIVE, NL)
> The Physical path for the UCLP involved the use of CAnet4 (CA) from
Pacific Wave to the ManLan (US) facility in New York; the Internet
Educational Equal Access Foundation’s (IEEAF, US) trans-Atlantic capacity
to the SURFnet, NL GigaPoP in Amsterdam; and one of six GbE paths from
the SURFnet GigaPoP to the JIVE facility at Dwingeloo
