Mission
The Transport Working Group will study
and report to NTAC on tooling and functional requirements for data
movement services in advanced networks.
Description
The Transport Working Group will serve
as a forum for the Internet2 community to study, discuss and make
recommendations to NTAC on issues related to data movement in advanced
networks. Areas of interest include tooling that improves end-to-end
data movement over standard network architectures as well as hybrid
network models and supporting software. The group will develop
functional requirements for existing data movement services as well as
study and make recommendations on future technologies to support data
movement in advanced networks.
Current Activities
- 1) Define functional requirements for Phoebus data movement
service.
2) Review the Bulk Transport Design Space Survey document and develop a
current snapshot of VFER and similar transport protocols.
3) Stay current with other protocol development with respect to future
network architectures.
Mailing List
The mailing list
transport
(hosted at the domain
internet2.edu) is publicly archived
and open to subscriptions.
I2 Phoebus Deployment
The Transport Working Group recommended
to NTAC that the Phoebus deployment in Internet2 be completed to
include gateways at New York, Chicago, DC, Atlanta, Kansas City, Salt
Lake, Seattle and Los Angeles. This deployment was completed in fall
2010. Members of the working group have done a variety of experiments
using this Phoebus deployment including demonstrations at SC10.
