  1. UCAID, Internet2 and relationships with other initiatives Heather Boyles Chief of Staff

  2. US Federal Gov’t: Next Generation Internet (NGI) Programhttp://www.ngi.gov • Established in parallel with Internet2 • multi-agency research and development (R&D) program to develop, test, and demonstrate advanced networking technologies and applications • via testbeds that are 100 to 1,000 times faster end-to-end than today's Internet

  3. Internet2 <--> NGI Relationship • Similar technical objectives • Focused on different, but complementary communities • NGI: Federal Mission agencies • UCAID/Internet2: university research and education community • Working to interconnect, make interoperable federal research networks and Abilene

  4. Internet2 <--> NGI Relationship cont’d • Cooperative programs: • NSF High Performance Connections grants: UCAID universities using to connect to achieve Internet2 connectivity • Abilene <-> Energy, NASA network interconnection: being planned to provide high performance access for universities to research labs • Applications: researchers benefit from numerous federal grants that help develop applications

  5. International Opportunities

  6. International Efforts • Focus on researcher partnerships working on advanced applications • Cooperate on QoS, etc. to maintain global interoperability • Use STARTAP (Science, Technology, and Research Transit Access Point) for connectivity • www.startap.net

  7. ANN ANN

  8. UCAID/Internet2/Abilene and International Relations • Seek to enable collaboration between researchers within and beyond the US that pushes the state of advanced networking technology and applications development. • Form mutually beneficial bilateral relationships with initiatives similar (in goals, scope) to UCAID, Internet2 and Abilene outside the US.

  9. International Collaborations cont’d • UCAID Board and management are interested in exploring best policies and options to achieve this. • One model is the Memorandum of Understanding signed by UCAID and CANARIE (Canadian Advanced Research and Education Network)

  10. Wrap International Collaborations cont’d • Main principles: • advanced, pre-commercial networks and revolutionary technologies -- not commodity Internet service • focus on applications • most effective relationships between initiatives of similar scope, mission, constituents • focus on non-governmental relationships
