 Developments in the South Atlantic: Exploring models for sharing submarine cable capacity at TNC19June 16-20, 2019 Bandwidth in the South Atlantic is increasing for the R&E community. In 2018, four events occurred. GEANT and CLARA announced an IRU with EllaLink, connecting Europe and Latin America. FIU signed an IRU with Angola Cables on the South Atlantic Cable System (SACS) and interconnection in Fortaleza to the Monet cable connecting Brazil to Florida. AmLight-ExP announced an IRU with Angola Cable for spectrum from Florida to Fortaleza and Sao Paulo. The SACS submarine cable system started interconnecting Fortaleza and Luanda, Angola. Dr. Michael Stanton, (Rede Nacional de Ensino e Pesquisa – RNP (Brazilian NREN)), Mr. Len Lotz, (TENET), and Dr. Heidi Morgan, (Information Science Institute (ISI) Internet and Networked Systems group at the University of Southern California (USC)) reported on the AARCLight study and status of network infrastructure via the South Atlantic at the TNC19 conference which took place in Tallinn, Estonia … Read More |

 AmLight-INT: In-band Network Telemetry to support big data applications at TNC19June 16-20, 2018 AmLight SDN network is being expanded to support in-band network telemetry using P4 and programmable switches. The goal is to support bandwidth-intensive science drivers with very strict SLAs, such as the Large Synoptic Survey Telescope (LSST) project. Jeronimo Bezerra presented at TNC19 Conference our experience in replacing the current SDN switches for PISA switches as well as trying in-band network telemetry in the field in partnership with NoviFlow switch manufacturer … Read More |

 Brazilian Symposium on Computer Networks and Distributed Systems (SBRC)May 6-10, 2019 Jeronimo Bezerra attended the SBRC event from May 6-10. The Brazilian Symposium on Computer Networks and Distributed Systems (SBRC) is an annual event promoted by Brazilian Computer Society (SBC) and the National Laboratory of Computer Networks (LARC) which was held from 6 to 10 May 2019 in Gramado – RS. For more than three decades, SBRC has become the most important national scientific event on computer networks and distributed systems, and one of the most crowded in the computer science field. The 36th edition of this Symposium was held in Campos do Jordão Convention Center – São Paulo. The event coordination was under the conjunct responsibility of the Department of Computing of Sorocaba (DComp) and Institute of Mathematics and Computer Sciences (ICMC) of University of Sao Paulo (USP) … Read More |
