A national glass fiber network to serve 100 million households with two-waysymmetric data communications service at 100 Mb/sec per household willinevitably be constructed during the next few years. The barriers to thecreation of such a network are not simply questions of deployment issues orthe cost of the network. Rather, fundamental innovations will be required inthe way networks are organized and managed.The project uses a three pronged approach to investigate the possibilities andtechnical consequences of this once-in-a-century event.: (1) a holisticnetwork architecture designed from first principles, (2) interdisciplinaryfundamental research that addresses the design of an economical, robust,secure and scalable 100x100 network, and (3) proof-of-concept networkimplementations to demonstrate how the network of the future can be built.The results from the project will take several forms. First, the blueprintfor the 100x100 network will offer a coherent intellectual framework on howthe next generation network could be built. The resulting architecture anddesign can serve as a compass to guide investment in network development, andwill be disseminated to government and industry through presentations andpartnerships. Second, in preparing the 100x100 blueprint, fundamentalresearch advances will be made in security, economics, protocol design, switcharchitecture, and network management. These will be disseminated through theresearch community. Third, the physical testbeds created through the projectcan be used as a platform for further studies, for example, the development ofapplications demanding high bandwidth or social science research on the impactof connectivity in the home. Forth, the software and tools used to design andvalidate the 100x100 network, particularly the emulation systems, will be usedto create new curricula for network education for two- and four-year colleges.

在未来几年内，为1亿户家庭提供100兆/秒双向对称数据通信服务的全国玻璃光纤网络将不可避免地建成。创建这样一个网络的障碍不仅仅是部署问题或网络成本问题。相反，需要在网络的组织和管理方式上进行根本性的创新。该项目采用三管齐下的方法来调查这一百年一遇事件的可能性和技术后果。：(1)从基本原理设计的整体网络架构；(2)跨学科基础研究，解决经济、稳健、安全和可扩展的100x100网络的设计；(3)概念验证网络实现，展示如何构建未来的网络。该项目的结果将采取几种形式。首先，100x100网络的蓝图将为如何构建下一代网络提供一个连贯的知识框架。由此产生的架构和设计可以作为指导网络发展投资的指南针，并将通过演示和合作伙伴关系传播给政府和行业。其次，在准备100x100蓝图的过程中，将在安全性、经济性、协议设计、交换机架构和网络管理等方面取得基础性研究进展。这些将通过研究界传播。第三，通过该项目创建的物理测试平台可以用作进一步研究的平台，例如，要求高带宽的应用程序的开发或关于家庭连接影响的社会科学研究。第四，用于设计和验证100x100网络的软件和工具，特别是仿真系统，将用于为两年制和四年制大学的网络教育创建新的课程。
