The map above shows current traffic flows and traffic patterns across GLORIAD - as measured in Chicago.  In the map, triangles show source of traffic; inverted trianges, destination. Sites connected by arcs are the heavist current consumers. Colors indicate network protocols and can be discovered by the listing of top users at the right. The small charts show traffic volume by application during the last two hours. Clicking on any of them takes you to a larger display.

Project: Access Grid

Description: The Access Grid (AG) is an ensemble of resources including multimedia large-format displays, presentation and interactive environments, and interfaces to Grid middleware and to visualization environments. These resources are used to support group-to-group interactions across the Grid. For example, the AG is used for large-scale distributed meetings, collaborative work sessions, seminars, lectures, tutorials, and training. The Access Grid thus differs from desktop-to-desktop tools that focus on individual communication. The AG technology was developed by the Futures Laboratory at Argonne National Laboratory.

Participants: The Access Grid is now used at over 180 institutions worldwide. See http://www.accessgrid.org/community/nodes.html.

Sponsors: Department of Energy, National Science Foundation
