Attend and participate in DICE activities

Set up general advisory structure for ACE, when circuits are in place.

Work with Internet2, Stanford and involved international participants to implement OpenFlow across the ACE infrastructure.

Work with Internet2 & GRNOC engineers to implement measurement resources for the new circuits

Establish a three continent dynamic layer 2 connection, with monitoring, for large data flows

Develop specific science support cases for ACE

In cooperation with our partners, implement a new circuit between London and NYC to directly carry Africa (and UK) traffic to the US

Working with IRNC:SP projects to deploy, where deemed appropriate, new measurement and advanced service technologies developed in SP projects

Investigate capabilities to understand traffic characteristics mapped to NSF supported science applications, potentially including flow level mapping, measurement, and reporting

Work with NSF to provide greater insight into NSF-supported science projects and applications are directly supported and enabled by ACE connections and services.ACE Financial Details 1-June-2010 thru 28-February-2011<br />ACE NSF, OCI-0962973 Compensation1st Quarter total(s)2nd Quarter total(s)3rd Quarter total(s)Annual total(s)Williams, James1,936.582,904.873,079.147,920.59Graham, John13,848.7815,894.5716,209.2145,952.56Halstead, Patricia0.002,449.991,106.673,556.66Wittke, Eric0.00391.25804.241,195.49Wagner, Kimberly0.000.00530.69530.69IC on Compensation619.706,925.026,953.5814,498.30Total Qtr Compensation 16,405.0628,565.7028,683.5373,654.29 Other Expense Amazon.Com Expense0.000.00327.58327.58Travel-C.
