TERENA Conference
Presentation: Global Networking and
Internet2 Digital Video Initiative
Rute Sofia and Jeremy Weinberger
Lisbon Portugal
iCAIR successfully demonstrated advanced digital video technologies, including results of experiments using IETF DiffServ QoS. The demonstrations were conducted by Rute Sofia, a Ph.D student at the University of Lisbon, who is resident at iCAIR. She is conducting research that is funded by Fundação para a Computação Científica Nacional, FCCN. FCCN is a non-profit foundation, whose main purpose is to plan, manage and operate RCCN, the National Scientific Community Network. Her area of research specialization is DiffServ and IPv6. The DiffServ part of the TERENA demonstration was supported at iCAIR by Jeremy Weinberger, a Northwestern computer science student and iCAIR researcher.
With its research partners throughout the world, the International Center or Advanced Internet Research (iCAIR) is active in a number of advanced digital video projects that are directed at enhancing the state-of-the-art a well as enabling research through the development of new media capabilities. One general objective is to expand DV from its current restricted usage on the Internet to allow it to be utilized more as a common data type, especially with regard to core architecture, direct access, integration with other applications, infrastructure scaleability, differentiated services, and quality of services. At SC98, the iGRID GiDVN (Global Internet Digital Video Network) project demonstrated selected capabilities of advanced digital video and opportunities for developing a next-generation world-wide media network, via the STAR TAP. This demonstration presented the potential of the GiDVN to provide QoS-enabled DV, based on Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) DiffServ architecture, over international advanced high performance networks. iCAIR also leading the member of the I2 Digital Video initiative and a member of the Digital Video Working Group of the Coordinating Committee for International Research Networks (CCIRN). Much of iCAIR's DiffServ research has been made possible via the EMERGE project, funded by Department of Energy's Science Grid initiative.

Organizational Meeting of the QBone Initiative
Center-hosted forum
This event was the first organizational meeting of the Qbone initiative. The Qbone is a project established to create a DiffServ testbed. The Center is leading an international consortium, as one of the entities participating in the initial phase of the Qbone testbed. To provide appropriate support for end-to-end high quality service over high performance networks, it is necessary to address a wide-range of key QoS related issues and to allow for proving concepts through a testbed network.
Related to this project are activities attempting to ensure that the Qbone can be implemented across multiple domains and systems. As part of this process, it will be necessary to arrive at a common understanding of optimal DiffServ design and implementation among many possible technologies and options related to selecting components and parameters, starting with selecting and provisioning for specific service categories and determining service category parameters and attributes.
