Research networks could fortell Internets future |

Physicists at Vanderbilt University work with enormous data sets — including data generated by the Geneva, Switzerland-based Hadron proton collider that aims to model the origins of the universe. In collaboration with 2000 other physicists worldwide, Vanderbilt researchers hope to find the answers to profound questions such as “What is matter?”
The data set is so large that individual researchers work with only parts of it. But if they make an interesting observation, they are able to establish an optical connection as large as 10 Gb/s on the fly that enables them to quickly transfer any additional data they may need from the central repository at the CERN European nuclear research organization in Geneva.

Audio Networking Emphasized at the Munich Audio Engineering Society Convention
In this CineGrid Special Report, Nathan Brock gives CineGrid members a rundown on the Audio Engineering Society’s 126th Convention, held in Munich, Germany. The AES Convention featured several panel discussions, workshops, and demonstrations involving recent research into audio networking. Audio networking is a growing area of interest for the AES, which has in recent years hosted many networking-related events and activities.
