CANARIE Inc is seeking proposals to provide an additional 10 Gbps for CA*net 4 in support of its participation in the international TransLight project. The transcontinental 10 Gbps lambda will be added to the CA*net 4 all-optical network providing six interconnections. TransLight is an initiative between CANARIE, StarLight in Chicago and SURFNet in the Netherlands to support prototypes for aggressive e-science applications. It will enable grid researchers to experiment with provisioning of dedicated circuits (lightpaths) and comparing results with experimental aggregated Internet traffic. Methods to be tested and compared include movements of large amounts of data, support of real-time collaboration and visualization and enabling globally distributed computing ...
