Abstract:

  GrangeNet operates a multi-gigabit research and education network,
  from Melbourne to Brisbane, supporting grid and advanced
  communications services.  It aims to support the broadest possible
  community of researchers, ranging from network engineers and
  computer scientists through to (for example) astronomers,
  bioinformaticians, distance educators and linguists. Activities on
  the network include high-performance computing, large-scale
  distributed data archives, online instruments, advanced
  telecollaboration and networked visualisation.

  GrangeNet provides opportunities for facilitating new
  collaborations, or enhancing existing collaborations, both
  nationally and internationally.

  This talk will outline the GrangeNet network, its infrastructure,
  its grid and communications services, how Universities and
  researchers can access it, and how users can make use of its
  services.

  The GrangeNet project is a joint venture involving AARNet, APAC,
  DSTC, Cisco and PowerTel, and is funded through the Federal
  Government's BITS Advanced Networks Program.
