Registration for Revolutionising Scientific Collaboration: The Evolution of ESnet, DOE’s Science Mission Network – 8 Mar 2023

Registration for Revolutionising Scientific Collaboration: The Evolution of ESnet, DOE’s Science Mission Network – 8 Mar 2023

Join us for an exclusive two-session seminar on Energy Sciences Network (ESnet) to delve into evolution of ESnet and uncover the latest advancements in network technology. This two-session seminar will provide an overview of ESnet as well as discuss technical details on ESnet’s 6th generation network (ESnet6) that was deployed in 2022. The first session will offer a brief introduction on ESnet’s funding agency, the US Department of Energy, and provide a high-level summary of ESnet’s evolution over the last 4 decades, including some forward-looking activities.  The second session will provide an in-depth view on the ESnet6 network design and build, which is followed by a discussion on drivers that will influence requirements for the next generation of the ESnet network.
