Taking Advantage of International Connectivity and Leveraging Global
Collaborations
Relationships and Partnerships Track
Thursday, April 10, 2003
10:30 a.m. to 11:45 a.m.
Salon III
Crystal Gateway Marriot Hotel, Arlington, VA.
This session will be netcast
This session will highlight exemplary collaborations between Internet2
members and international partners that are taking advantage of international
connectivity to support research and education. In the format of case
studies, the primary goals of this session will aim at: 1) highlighting
the value of international connectivity and international partnerships
to the Internet2 community 2) highlighting what members of the Internet2
community are doing with International partners and providing a forum
to share projects and lessons learned. After the case studies, we'll
have an informal question and answer session between presenters and
audience.

Case Study 3: e-VLBI
International Research Networking Needs [ppt]
Alan Whitney, MIT Haystack Observatory
Radio astronomy relies heavily on the Very-Long Baseline Interferometry
(VLBI) technique, which simultaneously collects data from radio
telescopes scattered about the world. Traditionally, this data
is recorded on magnetic media at rates to 1 Gbps/station and
shipped to a common processing facility. Transmitting this data
electronically (dubbed 'e-VLBI) offer many advantages in speed
of processing and potential bandwidth growth for more sensitivity.
Because VLBI is, by nature, a global enterprise, the networking
needs are international, posing both opportunities and problems.
In this talk, we will examine the needs of global e-VLBI, the
work to date, and the prospects for the future.
