  1. An Introduction to the Access Grid

  2. The Access Grid • Human interaction across the grid • Large displays • Supports: large-scale distributed meetings, collaborative work sessions, seminars, lectures, tutorials and training. • Focuses on group interaction

  3. Components of the Access Grid • Four machines-Two Windows and Two Linux • Three Projectors-Large amount of real estate • Three Cameras-Audience, Presenter & Node Op • Between 4 and 8 Mics- Depending on set up

  4. How to navigate the Access Grid

  5. VIC A video conferencing tool developed by the Network Research Group at Lawrence Berkeley National Labs and UC Berkeley. RAT Robust Audio Tool An audio conferencing tool effective for use in both uni and multicast applications. What is required to run an AG NodeSoftware

  6. What is required to run an AG NodeNetwork and Hardware • Minimum 100 Mb, fully duplex connection • Multicast must be ENABLED • An echo cancellation device- Gentner • Four machines or one machine?

  7. Single Machine Node • One Windows machine able to handle multiple steams of video and audio. • More compact; more portable. • Still requires some form of echo cancellation. • Still requires 100 mb fully duplex connection.

  8. Who’s on the Access Grid • 55 full fledged Access Grid Nodes • Worldwide AG sites: • Antartica, Australia, Brazil, Canada, China, Croatia, Dubai, Germany, Japan, Netherlands, UK

  9. The Future of the Access Grid • Faster connections • More windows • Higher resolution cameras • Higher frame rate • Remote control cameras • Smaller nodes • Desktop nodes
