Evaluating the Impacts of Network Information Models on Applications and Network Service Providers
Overview Configurable optical networks and wide-area resource sharing in the form of Grid computing provide intriguing opportunities for new application capabilities and resource efficiencies. The resulting Lambda-Grid is a collection of geographically dispersed compute, storage and visualization resources that can be interconnected on-demand with private, high speed optical circuits (i.e., lambdas). Such as a capability enables novel, large-scale distributed applications such as scientific data sharing and distribution, and collaborative data visualization, which require large resource aggregations and high-quality network service. Further, dynamic provisioning enables distributed and network resources to be efficiently utilized and shared by different applications over distinct time periods.
