Terrestrial FO: Creating
Synergy with other Projects I
• Brazil’s RNP, using US$ 10M
funding from FINEP (Brazil),
is supporting acquisition of
dark fiber and optical
equipment for Mercosur
Countries (Brazil, Argentina,
Paraguay, Uruguay)
• Additional funding is being
provided by Argentina,
Paraguay and Uruguay for
these projects.
Terrestrial FO: Creating
Synergy with other Projects II
Terrestrial FO:
• The Pierre Auger
Southern Cosmic Ray
Observatory located
south of Mendoza
needed connection
to InnovaRed (new
network in
Argentina)
• EC-FP6’s Auger
Access + RNP +
InnovaRed + Silica
Networks + CLARA
built the whole
Santiago-Buenos
Aires backbone and
fiber to Malargüe
The Auger Access Project
• The Observatory is located
in Malargüe, 400 km south
of Mendoza in the Andes
mountains
Santiago
• Connect the Auger
Observatory to InnovaRed
(Argentina) and RedCLARA
• Carried out in conjunction
with building out the
InnovaRed northern
backbone

Current and developing Large
Science Projects in LA
EXPReS: e-VLBI Integrates VLBI
around the World
TIGO: the Chilean node
• Geodesic Observatory of Very
Long Base Interferometry
(VLBI)
• Several observatories around
the world are used (Europe,
USA, Japan)
• Chilean Node located in the
South of Chile is connected to
the World thru REUNA and
RedCLARA
ESO – Cerro Paranal
The Very Large Telescope (VLT)
• UT 1 (Antu) – May 1998
• UT 2 (Kueyen) – March 1999
• UT 3 (Melipal) – January 2000
• UT 4 (Yepun) – September 2000
The EVALSO Project
• Paranal Observatory is
located 130 Km South of
Antofagasta in Chile
• To instal Optical Fibre from
Cerro Paranal to
Antofagasta and connect
there with REUNA and
RedCLARA
• Purpose, to develop new
modes of observation
The Pierre Auger Southern
Cosmic Ray Observatory
• Total Surface ~
3000 Km2
• A network of 160
detectors
separated 1,5 km
among them
• 24 telescopes in
4 buildings
Malargüe
50 km
The 6 Telescopes (30°x30°)
The E-ELT Project
• European
Extremely Large
Telescope
• To be built at Cerro
Armazones in Chile
(close to
Antofagasta)
• 42 m mirror
• Building start dates
will be defined at
the end of 2010
The ALMA Project
• System of 64
Antennas for
Radio Astronomy
• In deployment at
Chajnantor Chile
• Begins operation
in 2011
• Throuput of data
over 1Tbps per
antenna per day
The LSST Observatory
• In construction at Cerro
Pachón (Chile)
• Surveys the Sky twice a
week
• Over 800 high quality
images per day
• It will be used to create a
3D map of the Universe
Management of Response to
Natural Disasters
• CATHALAC in agreement with UNOOSA
• Integrated to UN-SPIDER
• To implement a regional surveillance and response system to
natural disasters
• Several types of data: Seismic, Tropical Storms, Climate, etc
Biodiversity
• “Species Link” (Brazil)
and other databases
• “La Selva" and other
biological observation
stations (Costa Rica)
• Oceans: Tropical and
Subtropical Western
South Atlantic
(WSAOBIS)
Other scientific and cultural
network drivers in LA
e2e Circuit (Lightpath)
usage for high-end users
• The first international 10G link between LA (Brazil) and the US
was inaugurated in July, 2009, with a lightpath demo involving
the digital cinema community with the transmission of
compressed 4K digital média (400 Mbps) and uncompressed
HD videoconferencing (900 Mbps) between the FILE 4K event
in São Paulo, UCSD (US) and Keio University (JP)
• Regular e-science lightpath usage expected in support of
Earth observation, Meteorology and Climatology, HEP, eVLBI and Dark Energy Survey communities
• Presently, about 25% of the total international Brazilian
capacity of 20G is being used for routed IP traffic – the
remainder is currently available for lightpath use.

LHC and High-energy Physics
• 2 CMS Tier 2 sites in LA (Brazil) have participated in BWC
(Bandwidth Challenge) demos at Supercomputing since SC04,
always limited by the available int’l bandwidth
– SC04:
622 Mbps (RedCLARA)
– SC05-08: 2.5 Gbps (WHREN-LILA)
• SC09 was the first event after the deployment of the new 2x 10
Gbps Brazilian connectivity to the US.
– UERJ (Rio de Janeiro) still rate limited at 1 Gbps
and demonstrated sustained transmission at 850 Mbps
– UNESP (São Paulo) was rate limited at 10 Gbps and
demonstrated sustained transmission at 8.2 Gbps

Future Internet (FI) research
and experimentation (R&E)
• FI R&E activities are being carried out in several countries
starting around 2005:
–
–
–
–
US: GENI (Global Envionment for Network Innovation)
EU: FIRE (Future Internet Research and Experimentation)
Japan: AKARI
Korea
• Growing tendency to collaborate through federation of
testbed facilities
• Brazilian initiatives in FI R&E are beginning to form
partnerships, especially with US and EU projects
– By 2011 international federation of testbeds in Brazil
