Introduction to iCAIR:
Accelerating Leading Edge Innovation
and Enhanced Global Communications
through Advanced Internet Technologies,
in Partnership with the Global Community
• Creation and Early Implementation of Advanced Networking
Technologies - The Next Generation Internet All Optical
Networks, Terascale Networks
• Advanced Applications, Middleware and Metasystems, LargeScale Infrastructure, NG Optical Networks and Testbeds, Public
Policy Studies and Forums Related to NG Networks
Photonic Empowered Applications
• Multiple Global Next Generation Applications Are Currently
Being Designed and Developed
• Highly Distributed, including World-Wide
• Resource Intensive – (Computationally Intensive,
Bandwidth Intensive, Data Intensive, Storage System
Intensive, et al.
• Many Based on Grid Computing Infrastructure
• Highly Asymmetric
• Utilization of Dynamic Multi-Wavelength Lightpath
• (Lambda-Switching) Provisioning
• Flexible DWDM-based networking vs Today’s Point-to-Point
Optical Networks
• Optical Network “Aware” – A Capability for Directly
Discovering and Signaling for the Required Network
Resources, Including Lightpaths
Photonic TeraStream

•
The iCAIR iGRID2002 Demonstration Shows How Global
Applications Can Use Intelligent Signaling to Provision their Own
Lightpaths to Optimize network Based Resource Discovery and
Performance, for example, To Enable Access To and Dynamic
Interaction with Very Large Amounts of Distributed Data.
Supported by Innovative Architectural Method that Envisions:
Closer Integration Between Applications and Advanced Networks
Liberating Applications From Restrictions in Today’s
Communication Infrastructure
Key technologies:
– a) Intelligent application signaling,
– b) Dynamic lambda provisioning on the OMNInet testbed,
– c) Extensions to lightpaths through dynamically provisioned L2 and
L3 configurations, in part, to allow for access to multiple types of edge
resources.
iCAIR Optical Metro Net Initiative (OMNI)
• Terascale NG Optical Metro Net Reference Model
• Removal of Hierarchical Layers, Circuit-Orientation,
Migration to Peer Model, Connectionless-Orientation
• Cost/Benefit Implications of Eliminating ATM and SONET
• IETF Architectural Premises, eg,

Powerful, “Smart” Core,
Complexity and Intelligence at Edge
Flexibility
Dynamic Resource Allocation and Adjustment
• DWDM: From Point-to-Point to Enabling “Lambdas-onDemand” to Dynamic Provisioning via Apps
