e-Science is About
• Bringing distant people closer
– From far away places
– Across diverse disciplines
– Helping those who express themselves differently to
understand each other
• Exchanging information – ideas, models
• Complementing work
• Building together
• Cyberinfrastructure as technological response
– Integration of processing, storage, communication
– Complexity is a major issue
– What is the Network role?
RNP – Rede Nacional de Ensino e Pesquisa
•
RNP is the Brazilian NREN
– maintained by the Brazilian government (since 1989) to enable network
access to the national research and education community
– provides national (inter-state) and international R&E connectivity for more
than 300 public and private universities and research centers through the
provision of advanced networking infrastructure
• also provides national and international commodity access
– promotes the development of advanced networking and applications
•
Since 2000, RNP is managed for the federal government by a nonprofit private company, RNP-OS, legally recognised as an
“Organização Social”, which allows the government to contract its
services without competitive tender.
Rede IPÊ – national backbone network
Last major reform in 2005
Capacity reflects available telco
infrastructure
Currently composed of:
• Multigigabit core network
– 4 PoPs at 10 Gbps, and 6
PoPs at 2.5 Gbps
– IP over lambdas (12.000
km)
• Terrestrial SDH connections
to 15 PoPs
– Most links are 34 Mbps
– Some at 2 Mbps
– Some upgrades in 2007
and 2008 to 102, 155
Mbps and 1 Gbps
• 2 PoPs connected by satellite
at 4 Mbps
Communitary Metropolitan Networks
• It is not enough to bring high speed connectivity to each city – it
is necessary bring it to the university campus / research lab as
well.
• The metropolitan network is the solution
– Infrastructure sharing to support:
• Campi interconnection of each partner institution
• Access to RNP national network backbone
– This sharing substantially reduces deployment costs
– Preferably, the infrastructure will be owned by the partners
themselves (reducing operating costs)
Community-based
optical metropolitan networks
•
Since 2004, RNP has also concentrated its attention on metropolitan
networks, to provide adequate access to the multigigabit IPÊ network
– Funding provided by Science and Technology ministry, complemented
by contributions from state and city governments and by private R&E
participants
•
These metro networks are based on owned dark fiber networks, shared
between the R&E institutions served
– typically operate at 1 Gbps and permit:
•
•
•
•
•
interconnection of the campi of the participating institutions
access to RNP´s IPÊ network PoP
reduction of current costs
easy to upgrade (e.g. to 10 Gbps) – just replace the terminal equipment
Pilot project: o projeto MetroBel na cidade de Belém do Pará, whose
metropolitan area has a population of 2.2 millions
– network was inaugurated in May 2007
MetroBel

•
12 institutions with 32
campi
each institution has its
own pair of fibers (for
internal connectivity)
30 km ring (48 fibres)
10 km extension to
Ananindeua (36 fibres)
12 km access links (6
fibres)

Community metro networks nationally
• By late 2008, RNP expects to have deployed all 27 of these
networks, reaching all the metropolitan campi of around 250
R&E institutions countrywide at 1 Gbps
• In most of these the local governments are participating for
internal IT and for connecting schools and hospitals
• This digital empowerment is expected to have significant
consequences for the use of the national and international
networks for scientific collaboration
Example: Rio de Janeiro metro network
Largest project
Collaboration involves:
• R&E community
• City government
• Suburban railway
• Metro railway
Details
• 123 points
• 236 km of cabling
• extensible

Total extent: 236 Km
Central Backbone: 72 Km
Other links: 164 Km

building out optical metro networks in 27 capital
cities
Redecomint
• Extension of optical metro networks to larger noncapital cities, with important federal institutions: São
Carlos, Niterói, Petrópolis, ...
• Other (wireless) technologies under study

– early adopters: physics, astronomy, climate, Earth
observation
– emerging: health, culture
• Networking architecture
– traditional IP network
– emerging end to end circuit provisioning
– testbed facilities

What will be Phase 6 of RNP?
• Almost three years have passed since inaugurating the
multigigabit core of the IPÊ backbone
• It is already time to plan the next step – it usually takes 2 to 3
years to implement such a change
• Very important to track changes in more advanced networks, to
see where the world is going
• Based on recent experience with the growing demand for
e-science and other high-bandwidth applications, especially with
international partners, we need:
– Continued increase in available bandwidth
– Increase in international bandwidth
• Upgrade BR-US link to 10 Gbps in 2008
– Adoption of hybrid (packet + circuit) architecture
Hybrid Network
New backbone technology
• Migrating until 2009 to provide hybrid network technology
in the production backbone
– Dyamic Circuit Provisioning with IP packet switching
– End to end reservation of Bandwidth and Paths on
demand
– Network becomes a dedicated grid resource, which can
be deterministically allocated
– Development on GIGA Optical Testbed
– Motivation – e-Science applications in Brazil
Hybrid networks in Brazil?
• The main argument for hybrid networks is cost – they are the
cheapest way to deploy really high capacity networks
• Collaboration with international partners is already limited,
because RNP has NOT normally provided support for end-toend circuits, and has insufficient international bandwidth
• RNP feels it cannot ignore this tendency, without restricting
certain classes of scientific collaboration.
• The hybrid architecture will be probably not be adopted
everywhere at the same time, but will be introduced together
with higher bandwidth links

•
Promote colaboration in e-Science and provision of
Cyberinfrastructure amongst its members;
•
Encourage the expansion of the Collaboration Network;
•
Promote Collaboration Network participation in national
and international e-Science projects;
•
Contribute to the discussion and formulation of public
policy for the development of e-Science and investment in

37
General Considerations
•
Multiple network domains must be taken into consideration for
end to end quality services
– Both nationally and internationally
– Seamless coordinated inter-operation between academic
networks still a challenge
– A lot of progress being made lately thanks to big pushers /
early adopters
• Astronomy, High Energy Physics Community, Climate, Earth
Observation
•
Integration between network, data repositories, compute,
storage resources, applications and users is key
– Cross disciplinary engagement
•
Need broad strategical planning for partnerships,
collaborations and funding
•
Looking forward to increasing collaboration with Colombia
