In 2003-2004, the TransPAC network underwent significant upgrades to strengthen international collaborations between Asia, the US, and Europe. This infrastructure enhancement included connections like OC-12 from the APAN NOC in Tokyo to Seattle and Chicago, along with an OC-48 from Tokyo to Los Angeles. By October 2003, new GE links were expected to facilitate innovative scientific partnerships showcased at SC2003. Future plans include bandwidth expansion to 100Gbps by 2008, emphasizing global security cooperation and tool sharing for enhanced scientific collaboration.

TransPAC Development 2003-2004 James Williams Indiana University williams@indiana.edu
Current TransPAC Network • OC-12 from APAN NOC in Tokyo to Seattle • OC-12 from APAN NOC in Tokyo to Chicago
Planned upgrade • OC-48 POS from APAN NOC in Tokyo to US (Los Angeles) • 2 x GE from APAN NOC in Tokyo to Chicago to participate in TransLight activities
Timing and Opportunities • We hope to have this infrastructure available on/about 1-October-2003. • Certainly it will be available for testing and use prior to SC2003. • The GE links provide for new opportunities for collaboration between Asia, the US and Europe.
SC2003 • This upgrade of TransPAC provides a significant opportunity to showcase Asia-US-EU science collaborations at SC2003. • We are excited about this opportunity and ready to assist.
Additional Areas of Focus • Global collaborations such as GFarm, Abilene Observatory and PlanetLab. • Security cooperation. • Tool development and sharing.
Future, Future Plans/Ideas • Bandwidth expansion (how?) • 2004 20Gbps • 2006 40Gbps • 2008 100Gbps • Close global service connections • Security • Measurement • Tools • Allocated experimental bandwidth (hybrid networking)
