NCR9730201McRobbieThis award to Indiana University, entitled "TransPAC: A High-Performance Network Connection for Research and Education between the vBNS and APAN" provides support for a High Performance International Internet Services connection between the networks of the Asia-Pacific Advanced Networking consortium (APAN) and NSF's very high-performance Backbone Network Services (vBNS). APAN presently involves advanced networks in Japan, Korea, Singapore and Australia and is expected soon to involve other countries in the Asia-Pacific region. The overall consortium (APAN plus Indiana University) is called TransPAC. TransPAC proposed to provide a 35 Mbps link between the Tokyo node of APAN and the vBNS via the NSF-funded international connection point for high-performance networks, STAR TAP, in Chicago. TransPAC will initially provide a high performance connection for about 50 joint US/Asia-Pacific projects that will leverage an estimated $200 million of research over the period of the TransPAC award.

NCR9730201McRobbi该奖项授予印第安纳大学，题为“TRANSPAC：vBNS和APAN之间用于研究和教育的高性能网络连接”，为亚太高级网络联盟(APAN)的网络和NSF的超高性能主干网络服务(VBNS)之间的高性能国际互联网服务连接提供支持。APAN目前涉及日本、韩国、新加坡和澳大利亚的先进网络，预计很快将涉及亚太地区的其他国家。整个联盟(APAN加上印第安纳大学)被称为TRANSPAC。TRANSPAC计划通过NSF资助的芝加哥高性能网络国际连接点STAR TAP，在APAN的东京节点和vBNS之间提供一条35 Mbps的链路。TRANSPAC最初将为大约50个美国/亚太地区联合项目提供高性能连接，这些项目将在TRANSPAC获奖期间利用约2亿美元的研究。
