This will change the way we live, work and learn.It will add another dimension to the concepts of global awareness and the global village. In this paper we hope to provide an overview of these developments to pique the interest of members of the Global Awareness Society in this global communication revolution. We would hope it will elicit questions about the need and availability of such capabilities for developing countries. We will provide a picture of the "wired" society of the future for it has significant implications for all of us. Other societies of global scope have similar interests and concerns as the Global Awareness Society. A few of these will be cited who are utilizing an international network called Internet and their efforts can be referenced there. A major focus of this paper will be to introduce the readers to Internet and to propose various uses of

  • Description of Omnipop for Proposals

    Description of Omnipop for Proposals

    Description of OmniPoP for Proposals Summary The OmniPoP is a collaborative effort between 12 of the member universities of the Big Ten Academic Alliance. Together, these institutions have pooled their efforts to create a high performance shared infrastructure based in the Chicago area. This infrastructure was designed to complement and augment the shared fiber infrastructure that the Big Ten Academic Alliance members had previously purchased. The OmniPoP operates a high capacity switching infrastructure that supports 10 gigabit and 100 gigabit connections to its member institutions and equivalent high capacity links to national research and education networks such as Internet2, ESnet, and Starlight. This allows OmniPoP connections to be leveraged to provide services to large data flows in support of multi-institutional cooperative research efforts. Efforts supported today include interconnections between the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) Tier 2 efforts at the member institutions and the Midwest Openflow Crossroads Initiative (MOXI) project which links several midwest regional networks to the GENI backbone. OmniPoP Infrastructure and Peerings The Omnipop infrastructure consists of a redundant pair of 100 gigabit capable switches. These switches operate from geographically diverse co-location facilities within the Chicago metropolitan areas. These facilities also serve as Points of Presence (PoPs) for other major networks such as Internet2, ESnet (Department of Energy’s Energy Sciences Network), and Starlight (the international peering exchange), enabling seamless cross connections to the major national and international research and education networks that support much of the academic research community. An additional benefit to these facilities is that they offer the opportunity for Big Ten Academic Alliance members to co-locate additional network related equipment in support of their own projects independent of the OmniPoP core infrastructure.

    The quilt Circle National Regional Networks Consortium ...Advanced regional networking in support of research and education 2015 Edition A Letter from the President This year’s edition of The Quilt Circle is bursting with projects and programs enabled by the regional research and education networks that comprise our Quilt membership. Naturally, The Quilt is proud of the positive impact our member networks and organizations have on the communities they serve. Our annual publication gives us the opportunity to showcase the work of our members and highlight the collective impact each have on the institutions they serve and support across the nation. Given the depth and breadth of our members’ work, it can be challenging to select a single image that effectively captures and communicates its impact. This year’s cover, the image of DNA strands, is truly a fitting one to represent the work of our regional research and education network community. For those of you already familiar with the work of the regional research and education (R&E) network in your area and for those who are just learning about them for the first time in The Quilt Circle, you will quickly learn that our R&E networking DNA is indeed unique. It is in our R&E networking DNA to ensure our community of connected institutions are able to access advanced networking capabilities, tools and services when and how they need it, with the best possible performance so that the network is not an impediment to scientific progress. It is in our DNA for our networking organizations to be driven by the interests of our user communities to enable these institutions to fulfill their promise and mission.
