SEEFIRE The SEEFIRE project is co-funded by the European Commission under the FP6 IST contract no South-East Europe Fibre Infrastructure for Research and Education

Content SEEFIRE Overview Partners Background Objectives Main results

SEEFIRE Overview Specific Support Actions (SSA) project funded by the EC (6 th FP) Start date: 1 March 2005 End date: 28 February 2006 Project budget € 416,273 - EC contribution € 350,000 SEEFIRE builds on the results of previous IST projects (SEEREN, SEE-GRID, SERENATE and GN1) Main goal To produce studies on the options available for acquiring an optical fibre network infrastructure and strategies for the development of research and education networking in southeast Europe, with a specific emphasis on Western Balkan countries.

Partners 11 Partners: TERENA (NL) Claire Milne (Antelope Consulting) GRNET (GR) CESNET (CZ) NIIF/HUNGARNET (HU) AMREJ (CS) DANTE (UK) RoEduNet (RO) ISTF (BG) INIMA (AL) BIHARNET (BH) MARNET (MK)

Background There is a significant digital divide in Europe which affects many countries in southeast Europe The SEEREN initiative helped in providing international connectivity to countries in the region However, longer-term, cost-effective solutions are needed in the future SERENATE recommended the acquisition of dark fibre by NRENs as a way of decreasing the digital divide in a cost-effective way There are dark-fibre deployment experiences in the region, which should be sustained and supported Southeast European countries are entering the eInfrastructures community Long-term vision: to create a southeast European fibre backbone fostering collaboration of researchers and students

Objectives To provide a benchmark of existing and potentially available optical fibre for NRENs in the southeast European region To analyse the technical options available for the deployment of dark fibre and the management of optical transmission by NRENs in the region To study regulatory and legal issues To develop an economic model for the acquisition and operation of own network connectivity by NRENs To disseminate information and increase awareness about dark-fibre deployment both at technical and policy-making levels

Main results July 05, Dark Fibre database to identify the fibre availability in the SE region July 05, SEEFIRE Technical Workshop (Sofia, Bulgaria) to discuss technical aspect of dark fibre deployment Aug 05, Report on the status of owned national connectivity in SEE Oct 05, Report on NREN-empowered dark-fibre transmission technologies Nov 05, Study on the regulatory and legal framework Dec 05, Guidelines for support of deployment of NREN-empowered fibre infrastructure Jan 06, SEEFIRE Policy workshop Feb 06, Economical model for the acquisition and operation of dark fibre networks in SE Europe Feb 06, White paper – strategic report on SEE Fibre Infrastructure for NRENs
