Securing connectivity and services for the R&D community forms part of our everyday business. However, the past eight months have demanded the NREN world to be further ahead than just at the forefront of things to support the education sector to remain open and available to students and researchers. This being said, what does it really mean? How is the sector coping? What are the biggest challenges?
For the “Education” session we have invited NORDUnet Media Manager Erik Kikkenborg and Hans Hüttel, Assistant Professor from Aalborg University to present some of their hands-on experience, status and progress from each their worlds.
Moderating the session will be NORDUnet Board Member from RHnet, Jón Ingi Einarsson.
Per Öster (CSC) and Olaf Schjelderup (Uninett) will take us on a dedicated tour of some of the big science projects happening in the Nordics and projects elsewhere that involve Nordic participation.
These projects, of course, mean big data needing powerful networks. The new NORDUnet Next Generation Network, in the Nordics built on top of the Nordic NRENs, and network systems connecting the Nordics to the rest of the world will be highlighted.
You will also hear about Arctic Connect R&E and its potential for Gravity North.
Moderating the session will be Pekka Uusitalo (CSC), member of the NORDUnet Board of Directors. You will have the possibility to actively engage in the session.
