7 4th e-VLBI workshop, Sydney, July 2005, A. Szomoru, JIVE for the EVN and JIVE Standards:- Protocols, parameter tuning, procedures at telescope and correlator. New Capabilities:- Higher data rates, improved reliability, quicker response. for GÉANT and the NRENs To see significant network usage with multiple Gbit streams converging on JIVE. Minimum is three telescopes (not including Westerbork) Must be seen to enable new science and not just solve an existing data-transport problem Real-time operation is seen as the ultimate aim, buffered operation accepted as a development stage. POC targets:

15 4th e-VLBI workshop, Sydney, July 2005, A. Szomoru, JIVE POC results Demonstration of feasibility Identification of problems Has led to closer ties with networking community and generated political interest Has laid the foundation for the next step forward (EXPReS)

16 4th e-VLBI workshop, Sydney, July 2005, A. Szomoru, JIVE The Future… e-VLBI & EXPReS! I3 proposal to the EC (Communication & Network Development Call) Ranked first out of 43 proposals; nearly fully funded to an amount of 3.9 MEuro. EXPReS = EXpress Production Real-time e-VLBI Service

17 4th e-VLBI workshop, Sydney, July 2005, A. Szomoru, JIVE EXPReS aims Upgrade EVN to e-EVN Last mile problem at many telescopes Including connections on a global scale 16 Gb/s lines into Dwingeloo to JIVE correlator Software in field and correlator to become real real-time And look beyond 1 Gb/s More capacity on digital sampling, more bandwidth As being implemented for e-MERLIN in UK Hardware (PC-based) and protocols for transport Correlator with more capacity: distributed correlation

24 4th e-VLBI workshop, Sydney, July 2005, A. Szomoru, JIVE FABRIC Future Array of Broadband Radio-telescopes on Internet Computing Will need a new correlator for 4 Gb/s Current EVN Mk4 based on 16x16x1Gb/s Implemented on 1024 special chips Next generation will most likely use standard CPUs Current EVN Mk4 processor equivalent 40 T-ops (2bit) LOFAR BlueGene ≈ 27 Tflops 32 station x 4 Gb/s ⇒ 640 T-ops And requirement to route 32x32 4 Gb/s input stream Possible solution: distribute the computing Use the Internet as the cross-switch SETI@home gets 59 Tflops Proposed to do pilot on the Grid

25 4th e-VLBI workshop, Sydney, July 2005, A. Szomoru, JIVE Telescopes will do multicast transmission Compute nodes will be cluster size Transported data may be time/frequency slices Resource allocation from central control Output data stored in central archive, proprietary rights for users Central astronomical scheduling

26 4th e-VLBI workshop, Sydney, July 2005, A. Szomoru, JIVE Conclusions, future POC has been a success, but, progress has been both fast and slow Bottlenecks hard to identify, packetloss does not equate congestion, fairness is a problem, relation packetloss— correlation poorly understood Geant2, Surfnet6 will be hybrid networks lambda switching Bandwidth on demand New protocols, software/hardware interfaces 4—10Gbps transfer—new hardware? e-VLBI is moving ahead; e-EVN will soon be a reality
