Outline • Discussion and advice from TERENA Technical Advisory Council meeting • NREN’s interest in lower-layer research • Pan-European videoconferencing service • Participation in FP7 project proposals • Challenges for the TERENA Technical Programme
TAC: NREN’s interest in lower-layer research • Presentations to inject discussion topics and perspectives from various point of view of the networking world (NRENs, RRENs, Labs): Steve Williams Maria Isabel Gandia Carriedo Walid Dabbous Victor Reijs • Many activities started/starting; Many possible “local” solutions
A “stolen” slide (with permission) • really low layers -> optical packets • control of lower layers (≤2) networks (no IP) • control of networks (≤3) (including IP) • policy, economical issues • evolution of a "testbed" (really hard) • monitoring is fundamental • flood of fp7 EC project, most not from NREN (which is now a minority, although fundamental) • coordination (Information Exchange)is missing, importance of timescale • Creating a network is “easy” especially at the optical layers • Management model (user role) for the NGN is unclear • Risks: fundamental is interdomain and ensuring all these networks/research intercommunicate to have a single Internet (this is the real added value the NRENs are capable of doing/explaining) and at the minimum cost • (by M. Campanella - GARR)
TAC: NREN’s interest in lower-layer research • A general request for having a neutral and open information exchange place where results and discussion are facilitated • Too early for entering in the area of “working together” on a few common projects ? • Start with workshop organisation and e-support (mailing list?) • Not ready for a TF-like before one year
TAC: Pan-European videoconferencing service • Again presentations… on “videoconferencing services currently deployed at national/local level” Andras Kovacs • And on Enhanced Communication Services (ECS) Fabio Vena Eric Dobblestein
TAC: videoconferencing service • Option1: • Centralised H/W (MCU) with booking portal • Support Deployment • Coordination • Option2 • Support Deployment • Coordination • Option3 • No Service
TAC: videoconferencing service • Option1: • Centralised H/W (MCU) with booking portal • Support Deployment • Coordination • Option2 • Support Deployment • Coordination • Option3 • No Service
TAC: ECS Challenges • Integrate different technologies • “Generation” gap? • Older users use legacy telephones • “in the middle” use of legacy VC and some … • Younger users with Skype, IM, Second Life…
TAC: ECS Challenges • We shall support ALL of them, making ALL of them “communicate” to each other • Who is ready to start integration (e.g. ECS-like) systems? • SIP, ENUM, regulatory issues, …
FP7 Project Proposals: FEDERICA • FP7 Call: INFRA-2007-1.2.2: Deployment of e-Infrastructures for scientific communities • Duration: 30 months • Coordinator: GARR / 10 participating NREN • TERENA lead User Support, Dissemination and Research on Novel Paradigms and User Control • Project budget/funding: €4,626,244/€3,932,208 • TERENA budget/funding: €285,501/ €258,878
FP7 Project Proposals: FEDERICA • Objective: support research experiments and projects on new Internet architectures and protocols [..] create a versatile, scalable, European wide and “technology agnostic” network infrastructure, open to disruptive experiments, in parallel, but independent from production networks. [..] exploiting the existing NREN and GÉANT2 networks services
FP7 Project Proposals: Visualive • FP7 Call: INFRA-2007-1.2.2: Deployment of e-Infrastructures for scientific communities • Duration: 30 Months • Coordinator i2Cat Foundation/ 2 participating NRENs • TERENA role: extend and support the PEACHES community, organise training and dissemination events • Project budget/funding: €7,452,410/€6,494,687 • TERENA budget/funding: €248,318/ €161,279
FP7 Project Proposals: Visualive • Objective: deploy an advanced networked audio-visual, visualization, and videoconferencing eInfrastructure, over existing NREN-GEANT2 networks, supporting and promoting the activities of the scientific and creative communities in Europe

FP7 Project Proposals: MOME-2 • Objective: make the MOME database the most complete, referenced and user-friendly data repository for searching and assessing monitoring and measurement data across the Internet [..] continue the activities of the MOME cluster project, enhance the MOME database.
FP7 Project Proposals: CADIR • FP7 Call: ICT-2007.1.4 - Secure, dependable and trusted Infrastructures • Duration: 60 Months • Coordinator: Theodore Puskas Foundation + 10 participants • TERENA role: Best Practice/Training • Project budget/funding: €8,016,215/ €5,909,770 • TERENA budget/funding: €379,334/ €287,001
FP7 Project Proposals: CADIR • Objective: develop a framework for security focused entities to work together effectively [..] improve coordination and cooperation tasks, on all levels, foundation, governance, processes, tools – and across all boundaries[..] to respond to attacks and incidents as well as handle new vulnerabilities in cross-organisational and/or cross-border scenarios.
Other TTP Challenges • AAI Federations and Confederations • Demanding new users support (Arts, Humanties, Medical and Social Sciences) • Creative uses of the network • …
