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 Mauna Kea, Hawai’i, USACerro Pachon, Chile 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. An international collaboration (US, Australia, U.K., Canada, Chile, Argentina, Brazil) NSF funds US participation The Gemini Observatory – Twin Telescopes

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
