From the Shared Internet to Personal Lightwaves: How the OptIPuter is Transforming Scientific Research
The document summarizes how the OptIPuter project is transforming scientific research through user-controlled high-speed optical network connections. It provides examples of how 1-10Gbps connections through projects like National LambdaRail are enabling new forms of collaborative work and access to scientific instruments and global data repositories. The OptIPuter creates an environment where researchers can access remote resources through local "OptIPortals" connected to these high-speed optical networks.
