Uses: highlights The new science: e-science: • Science used to about test tubes, wet labs and big instruments • But increasingly science is moving to networks and computers • Science is more global and distributed
Remote Instrumentation and Data Analysis Large scientific projects increasingly draw on resources from many countries. Scientists can use high-performance networks for remote instrument control and to pool computing resources for data analysis, improving ease of use and lowering costs. The Gemini Observatory – Twin Telescopes An international collaboration (US, Australia, U. K. , Canada, Chile, Argentina, Brazil) Mauna Kea, Hawai’i, USA Cerro Pachon, Chile NSF funds US participation
Digital Video – Distance Ed Tele-presence environments • Real-time interactions with very high quality audio and MPEG-2 video • as needed “meetings” connecting faculty and staff across the ocean Plain and Simple: Language/cultural Exchanges • CCIU World Tour/Univ. of Pennsylvania • Learning foreign languages through cultural exchanges and problem based experiential learning
Summary Leading-edge, high-performance network infrastructure is being put in place to support science, research, teaching and learning in countries around the world As a global community, we need to work even more closely together to ensure support for global applications on an end to end basis
