The 2002 conference highlighted GÉANT as the cornerstone of the European research infrastructure, emphasizing its key role in providing essential services to the R&D community. With a focus on high-demand projects like GRID computing, the discussions also addressed ongoing technical collaborations, including recent dialogues with radio astronomers. The SERENATE initiative aims to prepare for future challenges, notably the achievement of an IPv6 land speed record. The competitive demonstration showcased unprecedented speeds over a 14,800 km route, surpassing previous records for both IPv4 and IPv6.
