  1. The TERENA 3-years strategy David Willians President Claudio Allocchio VP Technical Programme TERENA GA - Zagreb May 22-23 2003 TERENA GA - Zagreb May 22-23 2003

  2. 3 years rolling cycle • Technical directions discussed at the TNC time • First tech/financial evaluation of projects before the summer • Detailed budget plans by October for approval by GA • Review of project and results at next TNC • Aims to better integrate technical and financial planning TERENA GA - Zagreb May 22-23 2003

  3. Strategy • Be active in SIAs - typically via TFs • And in FP6 projects where TERENA presence would be useful • In addition, pursue much closer relations with academic IT communities • Any other SERENATE outcomes? • Nothing comes for free, including FP6 projects! TERENA GA - Zagreb May 22-23 2003

  4. Special Interest Areas • Lower Layers (IPv6, MPLS, VPNs etc.) • Quality of Service (including DiffServ) • Videoconferencing and Streaming (Including IP Telephony) • Content Delivery, Indexing and Searching • Middleware (security, AAA) • Mobility Grid and Campus coordination, across all the SIAs TERENA GA - Zagreb May 22-23 2003

  5. GÉANT next generation • GÉANT next phase • Proposal submitted by NRENs • TERENA and DANTE as proposal participants • TERENA role in dissemination? • TERENA to contribute other work items, including TFs activities • TERENA and DANTE as members of the NRENs Consortium TERENA GA - Zagreb May 22-23 2003

  6. FP6 projects - GEANT2 • The key FP6 project for the community • Inside the project we should ensure that there are resources for:- • Compendium • (in 4 years time) next SERENATE • Human "network of excellence" - funding for "TF-NGN"-like activities - not at all limited to lower layers • What else ????? • Localise measuement performance tools? (I2) TERENA GA - Zagreb May 22-23 2003

  7. FP6 projects - others • EGEE • Already submitted • GARDEN and GRANDE • Discussed at session 2c • General support, with request for more information • Complementary - can they be merged or work together more closely? • When testbeds are in production they should become accessible for NREN trials via GEANT2 • TERENA encouraged to participate at 100% funding TERENA GA - Zagreb May 22-23 2003

  8. Other FP6 Projects • 6NEXUS (Network of Excellence for IPv6) • TERENA contacted as dissemination partner and workshop organiser • MOME (Monitoring and Measurement cluster) • TERENA contacted as project coordinator TERENA GA - Zagreb May 22-23 2003

  9. Other "smaller" projects • PAPI/PERMIS integration • Well received • Must be done! • TERENA should contribute 10K • Other (not ONLY NRENs, ALSO PROJECTS) find the rest (40K) TERENA GA - Zagreb May 22-23 2003

  10. TERENA Added Value • On pan-european level • Enable real life proof of concept, including first deployment of leading-edge products • Help standardisation TERENA GA - Zagreb May 22-23 2003

  11. Closer relations withAcademic IT • Euro compatible AAA and Middleware deployment • More uniform approach to IT applications (GRIDs, Metadata, Data sharing, …) • This MIGHT develop into an FP6 Integrated Project (October 2004?) • It will need a LOT of preparation • It needs to start with a SERIOUS workshop (~6 months) TERENA GA - Zagreb May 22-23 2003

  12. SERENATE issues • Are there any specific actions which will result from SERENATE? • The most likely area where we could have an impact is in trying to help reduce the impact of the "digital divide" inside Europe. • Not so much directly technical as techno-political - but it would take some resources TERENA GA - Zagreb May 22-23 2003

  13. Suggestions • Even more users' support/outreach • NRENs management workshop? • Understand the communities we connect and their requirements (in order not to be ovetaken by their decisions) TERENA GA - Zagreb May 22-23 2003

  14. Questions? TERENA GA - Zagreb May 22-23 2003
