CENIC News:
President's Message: The Broadband Data Improvement Act
Broadband is receiving increasing attention at the national level and many
would say it is about time. There are various studies and reports pointing
to the United States falling
behind in broadband availability and adoption. While CENIC has provided
California researchers and educators high-quality, high-bandwidth
networking for the last 10 years, we
have also been encouraging greater broadband deployment for non-educational
communities across the State and the nation at large. This is both because
of the belief that
economic growth is strongly dependent on broadband and because faculty,
staff, and students need better networking from their homes so as to bridge
the gulf between
on-campus and off-campus access to various types of learning resources. As
the nation’s economy transforms itself into the information economy, it
seems intuitive that high
speed networking is an important foundation. In fact as stated in a recent
American Library Association (ALA)
<http://www.ala.org/ala/washoff/contactwo/oitp/papersa/public_version_final.pdf>study
on library networking, “There is a growing body of research in
the economics community about information and the so called ‘knowledge
economy’. This research (Foray, 2006) and the policy documents that
reflect it (Atkinson &McKay,
2007) assert that investment in knowledge and information communication
technologies are key factors in a modern competitive economy.”
To address and consider the adequacy of broadband deployment, there are a
number of fundamental questions to be considered: first, what is broadband
and second, what is the
current deployment. Surprisingly enough, 200 kb/s is the current FCC
definition of broadband. Fortunately,
<http://commerce.senate.gov/public/index.cfm?FuseAction=PressReleases.Detail&PressRelease_id=248822&Month=5&Year=2007>the
Broadband Data Improvement Act (S. 1492), which received
<http://arstechnica.com/news.ars/post/20070719-broadband-data-improvement-act-clears-senate-commerce-committee.html>approval
from the Senate Committee on Commerce, Science, and Transportation on July
19, wishes to update the definition of broadband and to collect better data
on broadband
penetration. Introduced by Daniel Inouye (D-HI) with the support of five
other senators, The Broadband Data Improvement Act recognizes that
broadband availability and adoption
is absolutely essential if the United States is to remain economically and
socially healthy in the coming century, and moreover, as Inouye states,
that “the first step in an
improved broadband policy is ensuring that we have better data on which to
build our efforts.”
To that end, the Act proposes changes in the parameters by which data is
classified and in the frequency of sampling, and mandates studies by
various organizations as well as
a 5-year, $40 million program to provide matching grants to state-level
nonprofit public-private partnerships with programs to track and identify
barriers to broadband availability and
adoption throughout their state.
Not only does the Act specify that the FCC conduct inquiries annually, but
it also would direct the FCC to reevaluate its 200 kb/s definition of
“broadband” and instead consider a
definition geared to the transmission of high-definition
video. Availability is currently determined within 5-digit ZIP codes,
which many experts consider far too broad; the Act would
instead direct the FCC and service providers to use the more granular ZIP+4.
The <http://www.census.gov/>Census Bureau, the
<http://www.gao.gov/>Government Accountability Office, and the
<http://www.sba.gov/>Small Business Administration Office of Advocacy are
also directed to harvest demographic data from
individuals and businesses, and to develop the metrics by which such data
could be analyzed to measure broadband deployment and use throughout the
United States.
Clearly, given that this Act has come on the heels of the
<http://www.benton.org/index.php?q=node/5434>Rural Broadband Initiative Act
of 2007 (discussed in
<http://www.cenic.org/publications/cenictoday/ctv10_3.html>the May 9 issue
of <http://www.cenic.org/publications/cenictoday.html>CENIC Today and meant
to address the issue of
broadband availability in underserved rural areas) and the
<http://www.benton.org/?q=node/5912>Resolution on Next-Generation Broadband
Networks (introduced by Sen. Rockefeller on May 8 of this year to spur the
creation of a national broadband goal and strategy), the visibility of
broadband penetration for all Americans has become a hot topic at the
national level. The weeks and months
to come are sure to reveal more activity on this front. Keep an eye out
for future issues of CENIC Today to learn more.

CalREN Update: Network Projects and Activities
In the May 9 issue of CENIC Today, we reported that several County Offices
of Education could look forward to the installation of new Gigabit
circuits, specifically the <http://www.kings.k12.ca.us/>Kings,
<http://www.monterey.k12.ca.us/>Monterey, and
<http://www.santacruz.k12.ca.us/>Santa Cruz COEs and the
<http://www.sbcss.k12.ca.us/>San Bernardino Superintendent of
Schools. Also, a second DS3 circuit was ordered for the
<http://www.vcss.k12.ca.us/>Ventura County Office of Education for
sorely needed bandwidth relief while awaiting the needed construction work
to prepare for a Gigabit fiber connection to CalREN.
We’re happy to report that several of these sites are now enjoying
high-bandwidth connections to CalREN. On July 12, the Santa Cruz County
Office of Education began using
their new Gigabit connection alongside their existing DS-3, and on July 24,
the site began using its enhanced Gigabit connectivity exclusively.
The Monterey County Office of Education began using their Gigabit
connection to CalREN on July 28, and on July 29 the Ventura County Office
of Education received the second
of two DS-3 connections to CalREN, providing the needed bandwidth relief
until work on the Gigabit fiber connection is completed.
Previously connected via DS-3 to the Imperial County Office of Education,
the <http://www.rcoe.k12.ca.us/>Riverside County Office of Education’s
Indio office is now connected via a Gigabit circuit to the
CalREN Palm Desert node, located at the <http://www.csusb.edu/>CSU San
Bernardino <http://pdc.csusb.edu/>Palm Desert Campus. Once a maintenance
window is scheduled for the migration, the site can begin to enjoy its
increased connectivity to CalREN.
Consequently, it’s been a busy and productive month for CalREN’s K-12
community. Keep an eye out for future issues of CENIC Today for further
updates!

Sharing Knowledge, Sharing Cultures: UCLA DNA Researcher Seeks to Combine
Classrooms for a Second Time
[]
For faculty members who wish to take advantage of the broadband
connectivity afforded by participation on CalREN, distance education is
often the ultimate “killer app.” And yet
there are many ways in which this deceptively simple phrase can be
implemented. Educators can share the course information at a distance
or
they can share the students
themselves.
In the Life Sciences Building on the <http://www.ucla.edu/>UCLA campus off
of Sunset Boulevard – when he isn't traveling, in his lab, or teaching –
sits <http://www.mcdb.ucla.edu/Research/Goldberg/>Bob Goldberg, professor
in the Department of
Molecular, Cell, and Developmental Biology. But during the Winter Quarter
of 2004, Dr. Goldberg could simultaneously be found in a classroom in
<http://www.kyoto-u.ac.jp/>Kyoto University in Japan as
part of the
<http://www.cdi.ucla.edu/partners/kyoto/kyotoclass.html>Trans-Pacific
International Long-Distance Educational Program (TIDE). The program,
whereby a class entitled
“<http://www.mcdb.ucla.edu/Research/Goldberg/HHMI_Program/long_distance_learning.html>Genetic
Engineering in Medicine, Agriculture, and Law”
was shared across the globe, was a stunning success for Goldberg, his
students, and the faculty and students at Kyoto University – so much so
that he is eager to do it again
during the coming academic year.
“Academically, the class was great for the students, but it wasn't just
that,” says Goldberg, enthusiastic about what he sees as the real value of
the experience. “Culturally, to
see how differently the class was conducted in Japan – the relationship
between the students there and their professor – was a real eye-opener for
them, and for the Japanese
students as well, to see how we do things here.” The entire course was
shared via a high-speed fiber path along CalREN to Berkeley and across the
Pacific Ocean to Kyoto,
sending video and audio both so that professors and students could teach
and learn simultaneously in a combined setting. Supplementing the
experience was an exchange
program where between 10 and 20 Japanese and American students traded
places for a week, experiencing one another’s cultures and learning
environments directly and
participating in the shared class from the “other side.”
The process of creating the shared class and bringing the experience to the
students at UCLA and Kyoto University will be an easier one the second time
around. With the
creation of the <http://www.pacificwave.net/>Pacific Wave distributed
international peering facility, a joint project between CENIC and the
<http://www.pnw-gigapop.net/>Pacific Northwest Gigapop sponsored by
<http://www.usc.edu/>USC and the <http://www.uwashington.edu/>University of
Washington, crossing the Pacific Ocean will not involve reserving a
separate line or connection. Clear fiber paths already exists between
California and the various research and
education networks of the Pacific Rim to which advanced institutions such
as Kyoto University connect. Thanks to national and international peering
structures like Pacific Wave
and TransitRail (which recently expanded its US footprint with a node
activation in Chicago), distributed learning experiences like this are
possible for many more California
educators. CENIC is eager to learn more about the ways in which Associate
researchers seek to use their connectivity to CalREN to enhance distance
education.
UCLA’s ETC Looking to Design Distance Course to Share Ancient Sites Digitally
[]
On June 11, UCLA’s <http://www.etc.ucla.edu/>Experiential Technologies
Center announced, together with Walter Veltroni, the mayor of Rome, the
first public viewing of "Rome Reborn 1.0,” a ten-year
project initiated at the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA) to
rebuild ancient Rome digitally on the computer. Through this project,
viewers can fly effortlessly around a
painstakingly reconstructed ancient Forum standing again under a digital
sun, seen them from perspectives that have not been possible since the
first century CE when the
Roman Forum was filled with the bustling activity of the world’s best-known
early Empire.
[]
But the team at the ETC doesn't plan on stopping with Rome. Diane Favro,
the director of the Center and a professor of Architecture at UCLA
specializing in Architectural
History, is eager to design a statewide course, viewable over the web by
anyone, by which not only Rome can be shared remotely with classes
throughout California, but ancient
Egypt and Israel, the early Islamic world, the Romanesque world of
post-Imperial Europe, and even Berlin, the turn-of-the-century World’s
Fair, and modern Los Angeles. With
massive and strongly immersive worlds such as Second Life and other
non-remote gaming environments already popular among students, the
competition to look good in the
eyes of viewers is strong, so Favro and Lisa Snyder, the Center’s Associate
Director of Outreach and Operations, eager to find the best way to share
the information – one that
maximizes the experience and minimizes the effort in planning and execution.
Various models exist for sharing such high-bandwidth data, together with
expert commentary, to classrooms in multiple locations. The data can be
shared digitally or converted
to a video stream, and Snyder reports that the latter, despite its
simplicity, can often be the best method in terms of ROI. “It really was
the easiest to set up,” Snyder states from
a seat in the UCLA Visualization Portal. “Cameras for the students and one
for the simulation itself. It took relatively little time and effort, and
paid off.” Cameras were set up to
record the live manipulation of the model in UCLA’s Visualization Portal
along with the class itself, and the images were transmitted to
participants all over the state and made
available via webcast. Other more bandwidth-intensive possibilities
consist of converting the graphic frames directly to a video stream, and
frame-sharing over the network, where
the digital information itself is pushed along the network to remote class
participants. “Second Life doesn't allow you to import things that have
already been built,” Snyder
reports when the possibility is raised. “You have to rebuild everything
within that world.”
So UCLA’s groundbreaking Experiential Technologies Center continues to
investigate ways to bring ancient sites and ancient life to students
throughout California, as well as
finding collaborators both in the UC system and beyond. CENIC is keenly
interested in finding ways in which we can help facilitate this; any
Associates interested in participating
or who can offer their expertise are encouraged to contact Janis Cortese at

Automated Planet Finder to Begin Searching the Skies for New Earths at Lick
Observatory
Planet-hunting, according to
<http://www.berkeley.edu/>UC<http://www.berkeley.edu/> Berkeley professor
of Astronomy Geoff Marcy, is a great way to make a living, and last May, it
got even better when he and an international team
of astronomers reported finding an additional 28 extrasolar planets,
increasing the grand total of known worlds beyond our sun to 212, according
to <http://www.exoplanets.org/>exoplanets.org.
Most of the planets found, however, have been brawny giant worlds, larger
even than the record-holder in our own solar system, Jupiter, fittingly
named after the king of the ancient
Roman pantheon of gods. For Marcy, the most important aspect of this
search is the far more difficult task of finding worlds like our own, tiny
rocky Earthlike worlds. “It’s a
fundamental need. We want to see ourselves,” Marcy states, and he feels
that small, rocky worlds are not uncommon, even if they are difficult to
find. Larger worlds exert a
stronger gravitational “pull” on their stars, tugging the star first to one
side and then the other as they revolve around it. Swamped by the glare of
their stars, a planet’s existence
is revealed by these tell-tale “wobbles” induced in stars as they drift
through the sky.
[]
But larger planets mean larger wobbles – smaller planets tug their stars
back and forth by almost inconceivably minute amounts, making them far
harder to find without a
dedicated instrument, designed and optimized for the task. Such an
instrument is the
<http://www.ucolick.org/public/telescopes/apf.html>Automated Planet Finder,
located at <http://www.ucolick.org/>Lick Observatory atop Mt. Hamilton near
San Jose,
California and scheduled to come online sometime during the coming
winter. “It will change the kinds of questions that can be asked,” says
Marcy, continued on to explain that
the search for planets requires fixed attention to a given section of the
sky night after night for weeks. Most larger observatories dole out time
on their schedules closely, and
competition among researchers for time on the big scopes is fierce. Not
only that, but if the weather doesn't cooperate, valuable time on the big
scopes can be spent in
frustration at a cloudy night. Consequently, a dedicated planet-finding
instrument which does nothing but search the heavens for other worlds can
result in enormous strides
forward in this captivating sub-discipline in modern astronomy.
Sufficient bandwidth is a challenge. A scope like the APF is set to
generate anywhere from 5 to 10 Gigs of data each night, and bandwidth atop
the mountain is scarce.
Researchers currently have 3 Mb/s links, which must be used for
administrative tasks (phones, etc.) as well as scientific ones. Fiber is
expensive, and wireless technology can
come with limitations, particularly since the best seeing nights on the
mountaintop often mean that the nearby valley is filled with fog. As a
result, one of the premiere
astronomical observatories in the world, near one of the most “connected”
areas in the world and with a one-of-a-kind scientific instrument online in
months, faces unique
challenges in sharing its data with researchers around the world.
[]
Marcy and Bob Kibrick, research astronomer and Director of Scientific
Computing at Lick, have spoken with researchers at nearby
<http://www.sjsu.edu/>San Jose State University and
<http://www.ucsc.edu/>UC<http://www.ucsc.edu/> Santa Cruz
with an eye toward increasing the bandwidth on the mountain and have in the
past also spoken with the <http://hpwren.ucsd.edu/>High Performance
Wireless Research and Education Network (HPWREN)
in San Diego, an extensive wireless network extending throughout San Diego
county from the coast clear inland to the Salton Sea. Not only technical
details concern them; they
are also keen to learn more about licensing and the various other
bureaucratic obstacles to be overcome.
Again, CENIC is eager to facilitate this exciting project and to help
connect the researchers at the renowned Lick Observatory with others who
have faced and overcome these
challenges. With hard work and a bit of luck, the APF will not only begin
gathering the data that will reveal the existence of worlds like our own,
but will also be empowered
through high-bandwidth networking to share that data with astronomers,
students, and other enthusiasts of the heavens around the world.

Wireless victory for tech industry: FCC Vote Sets Rules for Sale of Spectrum
The Federal Communications Commission set the rules Tuesday for the
multibillion-dollar auction of a valuable swath of wireless airwaves,
starting a process that could
dramatically change how consumers access the Internet on wireless gadgets.
In a 4-1 vote, the commission approved rules proposed by FCC Chairman Kevin
Martin that require the winner of the auction to allow any device and any
software application to
run on the new network, a key victory for the technology industry.
Martin compared the vote to the 1968 FCC decision that forced AT&T to allow
other phones to be hooked up to its network. "It's important to help spur
innovation," he said in an
interview.

CSU Expands African-American Initiative
All 23 CSU campuses were on hand for the first “CSU Super Saturday” a
college fair for middle and high school students and their families on Aug.
4 from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. at CSU
Dominguez Hills.
The college fair is one of the programs that has developed from the CSU’s
partnership with churches and other organizations in the African American
community. The college fair is
designed to bring members of the community information on the admissions
process, financial aid, degree programs, housing, campus life, and parent
involvement.
Organized by CSU’s campus outreach professionals in Southern California,
the college fair follows the recent “Train the Trainer” workshop held at
Cal State Northridge. The workshop was
designed to help church educators become familiar with the CSU's practices
in reaching out to middle and high school students and their parents on how
to prepare for, apply to and
succeed in college.
The workshop and college fair are an outgrowth of a series of community
meetings that CSU leaders have held to extend their reach to the African
American community. Since those initial
meetings, CSU's efforts have grown significantly and have helped contribute
to a 12.5 percent increase in applications from African American students
for fall 2007.

San Jose Unified School District to Establish Largest K-12 Solar Power and
Energy Efficiency Program in the United States
San José Unified School District today announced that it has entered into a
unique partnership with Chevron Energy Solutions and Bank of America to
establish what is believed
to be the largest solar power and energy-efficient facilities program in
K-12 education in the United States.
The program, which includes installation of five megawatts of solar power,
is expected to provide the following benefits:
* More than $25 million in energy cost savings to the district over the
life of the solar power system;
* District budget stability and predictability through known energy costs;
* No district capital investment required;
* 25 percent reduction in the district’s demand for utility power;
* Reduction of 37,500 tons of carbon dioxide emissions, equivalent to
planting 400 acres of trees.
“This program is the result of years of research and commitment on the part
of San José Unified’s Board and is living proof that schools can improve
their facilities and help the
environment without tapping their capital budgets,” said Jorge González,
president of the district board of education. “It’s also an educational
opportunity – it can help teach our
school communities about energy efficiency and renewable power.”

Four state universities jump into high gear on the information superhighway
Mississippi's four largest universities have upgraded their Internet
connections to enable them to significantly expand their research
capabilities and access to information.
They now have faster and broader routes to the information superhighway via
two national research networks.
Jackson State University, Mississippi State University, the University of
Mississippi and the University of Southern Mississippi began using the new
routes July 1.
The upgrades come via the Internet2 Network and the National LambdaRail.
The Mississippi universities are using the NLR for the first time as part
of a collaboration with the Louisiana Optical Network Initiative. This
gives the two states' research
universities supercomputing power to link up with the national research
networks.

Ohio Governor Announces 'Broadband Ohio' Initiative
Governor Ted Strickland today issued an executive order announcing the
Broadband Ohio initiative to extend the reach of Ohio’s broadband
resources, further Ohio’s leadership in
network innovation and improve technology access for all citizens
throughout the state.
“Ohio’s economic future relies on our ability to compete in a high-speed,
high-tech global marketplace,” Strickland said. “The Ohio Broadband Council
will partner with the public
and private sectors to help make sure that every Ohioan has viable access
to affordable, high-speed Internet service, regardless of where they live,
work or learn.”
The Broadband Ohio executive order pairs higher education’s OSCnet
(formerly the Third Frontier Network) with the Next Generation Network
(NextGen Network), a new state and
local government network being developed by acquiring available bandwidth
from OSCnet.
The order also creates the Ohio Broadband Council to serve as the
coordinating body for Broadband Ohio and to provide oversight of the
initiative from a policy, procedure, process
and development standpoint. The Ohio Broadband Council will be co-chaired
by Ohio’s chief information officer and the executive director of the Ohio
Supercomputer Center.
