Global Ring Network for Advanced Applications Development (GLORIAD)

葛洛莉亚：先进应用开发全球环形网络（GLORIAD）旨在通过先进的网络基础设施，更好地整合&美国、俄罗斯、中国、韩国、加拿大和荷兰的科学和教育（S E）社区，以及更广泛的欧洲以及东亚和中亚。它包括：以环绕北方的环形拓扑设计的联合管理的混合电路交换和路由网络;以及支持&针对一般和高度高级（就网络需求而言）用户群体的增加的S/E合作的服务。 除了支持积极的科学交流与网络服务，该项目将提供一个生产环境，以推进最先进的协作和网络技术，包括基于网格的应用程序开发，端到端电路配置，IPv4/IPv6和单播/组播服务，先进的网络监控，性能测量和网络安全研究。为了支持全球S E合作的增长，GLORIAD积极与世界上最先进的S E网络和计划合作，为S E网络的未来制定合理，连贯的战略和架构。

GLORIAD: Global Ring Network for Advanced Applications Development The Global Ring Network for Advanced Applications Development (GLORIAD) aims to better integrate, with an advanced network infrastructure, the science and education (S&E) communities of the US, Russia, China, Korea, Canada and Netherlands - as well as broader Europe as well as Eastern and Central Asia. It includes: a jointly managed, hybrid circuit-switched and routed network designed in a ring topology encircling the northern hemisphere; and services to support increased S&E cooperation for both general and highly advanced (in terms of network needs) user communities. In addition to supporting active scientific exchange with network services, the project will provide a production environment for advancing the state-of-the-art in collaborative and network technologies, including Grid-based applications development, end-to-end circuit provisioning, IPv4/IPv6 an d unicast/multicast services, advanced network monitoring, performance measurement and network security research. Supporting the increased growth in global S&E cooperation, GLORIAD is actively cooperating with the world's most advanced S&E networks and programs to create a rational, coherent strategy and architecture for the future of S&E networking.
