Internet 2 Update

Internet 2 now includes over 100 research universities, a number of federal agencies, and many of the leading computer and telecommunications companies. Internet 2 is envisioned as a reliable high-speed network that will improve the current, highly congested Internet. It will allow for real-time and technologically advanced network applications that are essential to meeting the emerging needs of academic institutions in research, teaching and learning.

Two UCD resources on Internet 2 are now available:

• a listserv, i2apps@ucdavis.edu, intended for the exchange of information related to UCD and national Internet 2 application development efforts. To subscribe, send an e-mail message to listproc@ucdavis.edu and, in the body, type sub i2apps .

• http://dcas.ucdavis.edu/i2, a Web site featuring examples of Internet 2 applications and projects.
