Why GLORIAD?
• Time to develop follow-on to NaukaNet program
• Science applications demand it (HEP, ITER, NVO,
Atmospheric Sciences, Spallation Neutron Source,
Nanomaterials collaborations, network security, etc.)
• Desire to extend S&E network in Russia to Far East
• TransTelecom network in place
• Highest level interest in US for improving US-China S&E
cooperation
• Highest level interest in Russia for improving RussiaChina S&E cooperation
• Good opportunity to develop general framework for trilateral cooperation around a most advanced S&E network

The Future
Introduction to GLORIAD
• Proposed network/program to be operational in 2004
• Co-developed (and to-be-co-funded) by U.S., Russia,
China
• Expanded capacity for science and education
collaboration (10 Gbps)
• New “Global Ring” topology for reliability and new
applications
• Essential for supporting advanced S&E applications
(particularly HEP, Astronomy, Atmospheric Sciences,
optical network research, network security research)
• Follow-on to US-Russian NaukaNet Program
Introduction

The Future
Details (initial proposal)
• Layer 1: 10 Gbps Lambda ring across Russia, China,
US (and the oceans between) (likely access point in
Amsterdam also)
• Layer 2: Switched Ethernet
• Layer 3: IPv6
• Program to develop network management, utilization,
monitoring, resource allocation and scheduling tools
• Program to develop Cyberinfrastructure supporting
S&E collaboration
• Program to educate potential users and to
educate/inform continuously scientists/educators in all
3 countries about opportunities to collaborate

The Future
Technical Details (initial proposal)
• Initial capability to switch multiple ethernet segments
• Later capability to switch multiple lambdas (year 3)
• Optical (initially, Ethernet) switches in Chicago (Starlight),
Amsterdam (NetherLight), Moscow (RusLight), Novosibirsk
(SiberLight), Beijing (ChinaLight), Hong Kong (HKLight)
• Self-healing ring topology (ex: if network outage across Atlantic,
US traffic to Moscow transits Pacific/China/Siberia)
• IPv6 proposed for advanced applications, security, future of IP

The Memorandum of Understanding
The Chinese Academy of Sciences represented by the Computer Network
Information Center (CNIC), the Russian Research Center “Kurchatov
Institute” and the US National Center for Supercomputing Applications
(NCSA) of the University of Illinois jointly propose a new strategic
framework for advancing S&E cooperation among the three countries and
across the myriad disciplines comprising current and future collaborative
research. Linking their scientific communities with an advanced S&E
network and Grid-based services, the multi-national GLORIAD program
will actively encourage and coordinate applications across multiple
disciplines and provide for sharing such scientific resources as databases,
instrumentation, computational services, software, etc. In addition to
supporting active scientific exchange with network services, the program
will provide a test bed for advancing the state-of-the-art in collaborative
and network technologies – including Grid-based applications, optical
network switching, an IPv6 backbone, network traffic engineering and
network security. Supporting the increasing growth in global S&E
cooperation, GLORIAD will cooperate with other national S&E networks
and scientific resources as required.

Lightwave/Lambda Network
• 10 Gbps Lambda Continuous Ring (segmented into
multiple GigE ethernets)
• Need to decide carrier issues, meet points, etc.
• Russia’s network will be ready (to Russia-China border)
in late 2003
• China’s network will be ready (to Russia-China border)
in early 2004
• Important in later phase of project (year 3) that we
have multiple lambdas (at least, when needed) and
capability to switch lambdas on demand

Action Items
• Determine carrier issues for trans-Atlantic and transPacific links. Must choose carrier with stable financial
base, excess lambda capacity, eagerness to work on
large R&D project.
• Finalize arrangements with Russian company
TransTelecom
• Finalize transit issues within and to/from China
• Finalize network topology (optical nodes, facilities,
equipment)

Resource Access/Scheduling System
• Provide for ability to advance-schedule resource allocation
requests end-to-end
• Software system to automatically update network devices
• Must handle Level 2 switching for end-to-end VLAN provisioning
• Must handle Level 3 routing for providing improved QoS through
core network (for example, using MPLS or other service)
• Must by year 3 provide for scheduling/switching (at optical level)
lightwaves
• Must provide back-end reporting and surveying to determine how
well network met customer’s needs

Dr. Velikhov’s goal: “Virtual ITER”
sites with ready, immediate access to
conferencing facilities, live data
streams generated by
experiments/operations, distributed
access to computational resources,
remote instrumentation, monitoring
and control applications.
Need conferencing/lecture
capabilities immediately (AG?)
Network needs will eventually
exceed 10 Gbps
Preparing “concept paper” on what
the ITER-Grid will be
Would like to propose joint
development effort: NCSA, Argonne,
ORNL, others?

Application Communities
• GLORIAD is to focus on application communities especially those with needs which could not be met
without such an advanced network
• First, need to identify and document needs of these
communities
• Second, need to educate/inform scientists, educators,
students about potential services, capabilities
• Third, need to continually inform/update broad
community about opportunities of collaboration

Signed Statement of US-Russian S&T
Commission
Informational and Telecommunication Technologies in Science and Education
The Committee gave a favorable appraisal of the results achieved through
cooperation between the Russian Ministry of Industry, Science, and Technology
(MIST) and the Russian Academy of Sciences (RAS) and the U.S. National
Science Foundation (NSF) on high capacity computing and new generation
computer networks, including under the NaukaNet (FASTnet) Project, carried out
by the Interagency Supercomputer Center, the Russian Science Center Kurchatov
Institute, the National Center for Supercomputing Applications (University of
Illinois, Urbana-Champaign), and the Supercomputer Center at the University of
California, San Diego.
The Committee recommended that U.S. and Russian cooperation partners continue their
active cooperation and discussions of the potential of next-generation computing and
networking projects, such as those envisioned as the "TERRA GRID" network and the
Global Network For Advanced Application Development (GLORIAD).

On Wednesday, March 12, 2003, Dr. Velikhov placed the final
signature on a document developed by 7 senior organizations in
Russia indicating support and intention to pursue implementation of
GLORIAD.
It was signed at the Minister level by Ministry of Industry, Science &
Technology, Ministry of Communications, Ministry of Atomic Energy
and Ministry of Education. Also, the President of the Russian Academy
of Sciences signed on behalf of the Academy and Dr. Velikhov on
behalf of Kurchatov Institute (and as project organizer/lead).
The agreement is to not only fund the international and networking
parts of GLORIAD but also domestic infrastructure and programs to
enable the science and education communities to utilize GLORIAD.
Finally, we understand that Russian federal funds are now obligated
for GLORIAD -- from the above organizations -- the Ministry of
Industry, Science & Technology will be the financially responsible
organization.
