RNP Experiences and Expectations in Future Internet Research and Development

  • Chapter
New Network Architectures

Part of the book series: Studies in Computational Intelligence ((SCI,volume 297))

Abstract

RNP is Brazil’s NREN (National Research and Education Network), fully supported by the federal government to provide advanced network services to the higher education and research community. RNP has operated its own IP network since 1992, and has continually renewed its technology since then. This chapter reports on the present state of RNP production infrastructure, including expectations for 2010. Additionally, a number of different Brazilian network testbed initiatives are presented, as well activities now being directed to Future Internet research and development.
