Hi ftth,

An item from the CANARIE letter:

User Controlled LightPath Software Available

The software was co-funded by Cisco Canada and CANARIE under CANARIE's Directed Research program for User Controlled LightPath (UCLP)Software. The software is now freely available.

The UCLP web services software is based on the Open Grid Service Architecture (OGSA) using Globus Toolkit 3 and Java/Jini services.

The UCLP software allows end users to self provision and dynamically reconfigure optical (layer one) networks within a single domain or across multiple independent management domains. Sometimes this is also referred to as user controlled traffic engineering. Users can also create daughter optical VPNs and hand off control and management of these VPNs to other users.

The UCLP software is designed to allow end users to create their own discipline or application specific IP network, particularly in support for high end grid applications. For example a community of high energy physicists or VLBI researchers can create their own independent IP network (as a subset of a larger optical network) whose topology and architecture is optimized for their particular grid applications needs and requirements. More importantly these networks can be dynamically reconfigured at any time without getting permission or signaling the optical network manager.

A special version of GridFTP has also been developed to allow applications to setup dedicated IP network for high volume data transfers.

CANARIE has funded 4 software teams to develop different versions of the software. The software is available at no charge at the following sites:
