Live from the iGrid 2005 floor --- where I sense a remarkable buzz around Grid Network Services --- I transmit the Agenda for the upcoming GGF meeting. See you in a week!
Grid High Performance Networking Research Group (GHPN-RG), Wed October 2:00-3:30, Stuart room.
Agenda
1. Agenda Bashing.
2. Overview of GHPN and the drafts underway. Progress against milestones [15']
3. An update on Grid Network Services, presented by Admela Jukan [20'] https://forge.gridforum.org/docman2/ViewProperties.php?group_id=53&category_id=750&document_content_id=3833
4. Liaison with the Global Lambda Integrated Facility, presented by Gigi Karmous-Edwards [20'] GNSs are central to the efforts of the GLIF community
5. Short presentations ` [30'] * Considerations on architecture and implementation of GMPLS-based services for grid applicatons, a joint effort by AIST, KDDI R&D Labs and NTT, presented by Michiaki Hayashi, KDDIlabs * MAking Grid Middleware network-Aware (MAGMA), presented by Hagen Woesner, Create-Net
In addition to the regular GHPN program, I want to call your attention to two events of relevance to this community: * a 60' lecture on Provisioning & Managing a Switching Infrastructure as a Grid Resource, by Yaron Haviv, Voltaire, scheduled for Wednesday October 5th 6:00pm as part of the Community Program; * the 2nd IEEE/Create-Net GridNets 2005 workshop on October 6-7 in Boston ( http://gridnets.org/2005/). GridNets is a forum for peer-reviewed research papers on networks for Grid applications. This event is NOT associated with GGF. Same city but different venue, different dates (albeit adjacent dates), and different admission fee structure. -franco
