OptIPuter: From the End User Lab to Global Digital Assets
The document discusses the OptIPuter Project, which aims to create an infrastructure for sharing and collaborating on large datasets over high-speed optical networks. Key points: - The project links global science projects to user clusters through networks like National LambdaRail, allowing for remote interactive analysis of large datasets. - An early success was remote interactive exploration of deep sea vents using high-definition video between the University of Washington and Canada. - The goal is to connect high-resolution display walls at UCSD and UCI to allow researchers to jointly explore complex data remotely. - An early trans-Pacific telepresence meeting between US, Japan and Australia demonstrated the technical ability for global digital cinema collaboration.
