  5. GÉANT Topology April 2004

  6. Basic Issues in GN2 Project • Financial Arrangements • Capacity • Wavelengths & Fibre Questions • Research Activities

  7. Technology Disruptive emerging Experimental Advanced All research disciplines Very demanding communities Research on networking GÉANT: One element of a strategy IPv6, Optical,... next generation Internet GRIDS GÉANT

  8. Financial Arrangements • EC support for Geant • Integrated Project • Network Infrastructure • Developmental Elements • Funded by the NRENS and the EC • Framework Programme 6 (FP6) • Extending the Range of Connections

  9. EC & NREN funded • 186 MEuro over 4 years (US $230M) • Starting end 2004 • 93 Meuro available from EC • 93 MEuro payable by NRENs • assuming 50% co-funding • Based on bandwidth subscribed for

  10. Relative Cost of Connectivity Compared with Number of Suppliers

  11. Some Indications from Market in Europe • 40Gbps becoming available • Cost of Interfaces for 40Gbps v. high • Multiple 10Gbps may be more flexible solution • Would allow Hybrid Network • Mix of IP and non-IP • Terminate on Routers and Switches

  12. Managed Wavelengths and Dark Fibre • Whether to invest in dark fibre IRUs and transmission equipment/management and maintenance/repeater stations etc • In terms of costs - • May not be advantage in Western Europe • Less competitive markets : more offers of dark fibre in Central and Eastern Europe

  13. Some exciting possibilities • Costs for 10Gbps are still reducing • Additional Wavelengths will drop in price • Multiple , dual-homed 10Gbps affordable in a number of locations • 10Gbps Lambda possible building block • Provide switched GEs to high-end users

  14. NETWORK INFRASTRUCTURE &MAJOR JOINT RESEARCH TOPICS • Security • Performance Monitoring • End-To-End Guarantees • Mobility

  15. Service Activities • SA1 : Procurement • SA2 : Network Operations and Basic Services • SA3 End-to-End Quality of Service • SA4 Connecting Other World Regions

  16. Networking Activities • NA1 Management of GN2 • NA2 GN2 Dissemination Activities • NA3 Support for Users & User Consultancy • NA4 NREN Development & Support • NA5 Foresight Study • NA6 Co-ordination of RTD Activities

  17. Joint Research Activities • JRA1 Performance Measurement and Management • JRA2 Security • JRA3 Bandwidth Reservation & Allocation • (Bandwidth on Demand) • JRA5 Ubiquity (Mobility) and Roaming Access to Services • JRA4 Technology & Service Testing

  18. MAJOR JOINT RESEARCH TOPICS • Security • Performance Monitoring • End-To-End Guarantees • Mobility

  19. e-VLBI • Exploits GEANT on a pan-European Basis • Real time • Throughput 512 Mbps -1+Gbps • Better Quicker Science • Look Back Further in Time

  20. Support for European VLBI Radio Telescope Correlator Data Flows (RT or non-RT)

  21. NORDUnet JANET SURFnet PSNC DFN GARR EVN Traffic Flows over GÉANT SE UK JIVE PL CZ BE NL DE2 DE1 FR CH AT 256M 512M ? 1G  2.5G 10G IT

  23. After GÉANT: What’s needed? • Improved backbone infrastructure for European research and education - building on GÉANT core • Support integrated, multi-national research teams with challenging (networking) requirements - e.g. GRIDs • Integration of European services into a world-wide scope • Support constantly growing requirements and rapidly evolving technology: • spearhead development of next generation communication technologies ahead of the market
