Friday October 27, 2006 SCInet plans massive bandwidth for SC2006
When SC2006, the premier international conference of high performance computing, networking, storage and analysis convenes Nov. 11-17 in the Tampa Convention Center, the center will be one of the best-connected sites on the planet. And, as a service for future conventions, much of the state-of-the-art networking infrastructure installed in the center will remain in place.
Every year, a team of volunteers works for more than a year to design, build and manage the SC conference network known as SCinet. For SC06, the SCinet team will be bringing in ten 10-gigabits-per-second (Gbps) network connections to the convention center. The combined network capability will be about 20,000 times that of the fastest residential Internet service provided by cable TV and telephone companies. Full Story
