  4. The Internet Today • Hundreds of millions of users • Web, email, low-quality audio & video • Applications adapt to underlying technology • Important, not mission-critical uses • Scale orders of magnitude beyond the design point

  5. Tomorrow’s Internet • Billions of users and devices • Convergence of today’s applications and services with real time rich media environments • New technologies enable unanticipated applications (and create new challenges) • Mission-critical uses

  6. Tomorrow’s Internet Requires • Bigger pipes • Capacity allocation & assurance • Core middleware • Application-enabling middleware • Exemplary applications

  7. Our Role • Create leading edge R&E network capability • Implement required middleware • Enable new generation of applications • Provide the platform for scalability research • Transfer technology andexperience to the global Internet

  8. We Hold the Key • High performance applications • Middleware innovations and deployment • Progressively larger testbeds • Relationships with government and industry • Research capability to discover, diagnose, and innovate in response to scalability challenges

  9. The Scalability Agenda • Comprehensively instrument the high performance network environment • Apply advanced processing, storage, data analysis and modeling tools • Engage three communities • Users • Infrastructure providers • Computer Science network research
