APAN Malaysia
APAN Malaysia
- APAN-My was formed in 1997 to promote advanced
research in network technologies using High Bandwidth
networks. One of the main purposes of APAN-My is to link
the main research network within Malaysia.
- APAN Malaysia is an active member of APAN. APAN-MY
heads the Multimedia Working Group and the IPV6 WG
and also involve in numerous other APAN activities.
APAN Network Topology
Network topology for AI3
Existing connectivity
Future connectivity
Connections from PH and VN to SEA-backbone
Link to Internet2
Testbed Environment for Malaysian Multimedia
Applications and Networking (TEMAN) + Others
- TEMAN was formed in 1997 by a collaborative effort
between the Government, Universities and Telecommunication
Companies.
-It has setup a high speed 155 Mbit network testbed for
research and development. This has expanded to include more
universities. Satellite Bandwidth Obtained for research as well.
-Now have support from the world’s first Dark Fiber 2.5 Gig
Backbone network to also support connectivity.
-Manis IPv6 research backbone already running

WG
•New Charter/Update
Charter
–Success of old charter:
•Spinning-off newer WGs and Technology (Digital Video etc.)
–Some took off, and some did not.
•Creating a video conferencing network between Temasek Poly,
USM, Keio Univ and AIT. AI3 NOC has setup server and being
used. Distance edu classes will be conducted using this system.
APAN NOC has setup the MCS server which was used in this
conference.
•New Projects
–Virtual Gaming/Conferencing/ in an immersive cave type
environment.
•Current commitments from NRG USM, Temasek Poly for
Phase 1 and possibly ANU and AIT for Phase 2. Markus is also
providing some input about GRID in this area.
