| Overview |
The Advanced Network Management Lab was the first
laboratory set up by Pervasive Technology Labs at Indiana
University. The lab develops technology in the form of
hardware and software to help manage the convergence of data,
video and voice over the Internet. The lab is led by
networking veteran Steve Wallace, who has managed the Abilene
Project for Internet2 at Indiana University.
The lab
creates tools, such as embedded devices that enhance the
functionality of equipment, like video conferencing units,
while other tools will be in the form of software for network
management systems. One of the lab's first projects was to
work with Internet2 on "end-to-end" applications to ensure
those applications make it in their purest form from one
eyeball at one end of a transmission to another at the
opposite end.
The Advanced Network Management Lab has
the perfect playground to test its technologies-the Network
Operation Center for Internet2. The Abilene network was
developed by a consortium of universities, along with Qwest
Communications, Cisco Systems and Nortel Networks. The
Washington D.C.-based University D.C.-based University
Corporation for Advanced Internet Development is responsible
for the operation of the Abilene Network and Internet2.
Indiana University operates Abilene for UCAID.
