APAN Claims Domestic and World Firsts

2/11/10

Sydney, AUSTRALIA – 11 February 2010 – [AARNet] Organisers of the 29th Asia Pacific Advanced Networking Consortium meeting (APAN) held in Sydney earlier this week are claiming a handful of Australian and world firsts. Speaking to Computerworld, Australia’s Academic and Research Network (AARNet) CEO Chris Hancock pointed to telemedicine, IPv6 and Eduroam (a location independent wireless network) demonstrations as highlights …continue reading

AARNET, University of Queensland and Queensland Cyber Infrastructure Foundation Launch Australia’s First Visualcasting Exchange

Sydney, AUSTRALIA – 11 February 2010

AARNet, Australia’s Academic and Research Network has joined forces with the University of Queensland, Queensland Cyber Infrastructure Foundation (QCIF) to offer Australia’s first SAGE Bridge to support the multidirectional streaming (or visualcasting) of ultra high resolution videos and images at up to five Gigabits per second (Gbps).

Used to support global collaboration among co-located and remote experts who require interactive ultra-high-resolution imagery, delegates at the 29th Asia Pacific Advanced Networking Consortium meeting (APAN) in Sydney were shown a live multidirectional visualcast on an OptiPortal connected to AARNet’s high speed network. The demonstration connected participants from QCIF at the University of Queensland, University of Melbourne, Texas Advanced Computing Centre (USA), Gwangju Institute of Science and Technology (South Korea) and APAN …continue reading

SAGE Highlights at SC09

Display walls of any size – whether digital cinema animations, high-resolution images, high-definition video-teleconferencing, presentation slides, documents, spreadsheets or laptop screens.

NSF believes this important, and recently awarded University of Illinois at Chicago’s Electronic Visualization Laboratory (EVL) a 3-year grant to transition SAGE from a research prototype to a hardened technology for cyberinfrastructure. EVL’s goal is to develop production-quality, community-driven, open services for visualization and collaboration, foster the growth of the burgeoning SAGE user community, and create a forum for developers and users to contribute new tools, capabilities and applications …continue reading
