Who Are The Heavy Users

bull Groups or Projects with (relatively) Few People

bull Specific to one science areabull Shared resources bull International (global) collaborationbull Communication is mostly internal

bull Sharing Scientific Instrumentsbull Radio-telescopes CERN microscopes bull Sharing Research Infrastructure

bull Sharing Large Datasets or Compute Resources

bull Genome Databases Large-scale computation Simulations Visualization

How Do Heavy Users Affect the Net

bull Heavy users drive total network capacitybull Some Internet features are Expensive

bull Many to Manybull All users can get everywherebull Routes around damagebull Heavy applications donrsquot need all this

bull Capacity + Routing drives cost Solution bull Offload heavy users to simple private networksbull Expensive networks for the many with low

volumebull Cheap networks for the few with lots of traffic

NORDUnet

We Want

bull To enable new ways of doing sciencebull A Hybrid Network

bull IP for the massesbull Private networks (OPNs) for the heavy

usersbull Ability to build new networks in demand

bull Handle capacity growth and control costbull Ability to use new network technologies

bull Rapid changes in the world of networkingbull Collaboration is becoming global

NORDUnet

The GLORIAD Collaboration

NORDUnet

We Also Want To

bull Enable Nordic participation in global Science

bull Position the Nordic region in global research networks

bull Be part of global networking collaborations

bull Be a driver in European network evolution

bull Have the facilities to act on international opportunities
