e-Infratructure - Beyond Transport• It’s more than just a Network• It’s enabling global collaboration• It’s facilitating use of remote
instruments• It’s facilitating sharing of data• It’s joint capabilities for storing and
processing• It’s all the resources for global e-Science

e-Science• e-Science is by nature collaborative• e-Science is by nature international,
often global• Well-defined groups or projects
• Specific to one science area• Small(ish) number of users• Shared resources
• Communication is mostly internal to the group or project

Grids and Hybrid Networks• Facilitating e-Science collaboration
• Hybrid Networks allows distribution and sharing of resources – local & global
• Grid allows researchers to take full advantage of advanced networks and integration of capabilities
• Complimentary views• Computing as just another element in the
Hybrid Network• Transport as just another grid resource• From both points of view, Grid and Networks
belong together
