TAC - Discussion Topics (1)
VIDEO-STREAMING
•
Expand to users - not for techies --> service !
•
Reliable delivery of packets (Bandwidth, delay…)
•
Facility cordination, dialling schemas
•
Collaboration! Expertise and facilities discovery!
SECURITY
•
Successful and expanding beyond NRENs
•
Shall we split the group?
•
•
•
•
•
NRENs, ISPs, GOV,…
Follow TRENDS, and monitor regulators!
Legal ISSUES and Responsibilities
Security to PRESERVE services integrity (VoIP…)
One Security expert in each TF/Group ?

TAC - Discussion Topics (2)
GRIDS
•
A challenge: deliverables BEFORE other project complete
them
•
Lots of requirements to NRENs: BoD, Monitoring, VPNs,…
•
Dissemination but also COORDINATION (duplication
avoidance)
•
Coordination with SECURITY, CA interworking, Policies
MIDDLEWARE
•
PKI and Security focus
•
Coordination and interoperability (many reasults already)
•
US MACE, TACAR
•
TF-EMC?
•
•
EuroMACE, a TF?
Liaisions JRA5, EGEE

TAC - Discussion Topics (3)
MOBILITY
•
Access to roaming users
•
Bringing It to the end user (Campuses) - deployment!
•
Strong security interaction
•
Extend roaming to all NRENs and endpoints
LOWER LAYER
•
Collaboration with all other areas
•
Speak the same language, common terms
•
Bring univ/campus people back
•
Access to the backbone, mobile, remote areas
E2E
•
Bring the whole picture together
•
Tools, teams, language together - a flow chain
•
TF for it?

Further Steering Investigations
•
For the second year in a row the "Call for new
Ideas" produced poor results:
•
•
•
•
Do we reach the right people?
Are our scarce human resources overbooked?
"no money - no ideas"?
The TAC is doing its job
•
•
We will discuss the issues also off-line (ML)
TNC is a source of ideas and information
•
We are trying to grep ideas from presentations,
discussions and coffee break discussions

What is TERENA doing
in the GRID arena ?

• Lower Layers = Optical / High Speed Networking
• Middleware = AAI
• Many NREN (users) Particpate in Global Grid Forum (GGF)
• High Performance Networking & Measurement
• Security & AAI
