1 January 26th, 2016 Overview of SINET5 Shigeki Yamada National Institute of Informatics (NII), Japan

2 Science Information Network (SINET) SINET is a research and education network for more than 800 universities and research institutions, including all national universities and major institutions, and for about 3 million users. The current version, SINET4, covers all 47 prefectures with a maximum line bandwidth of 40 Gbps and has four 10-Gbps international lines for international collaborative research.

4 Usage Example in High-Energy Physics Belle/ Belle II and Super Kamiokande experiments use SINET L3/L2VPNs in order to securely share large amounts of data between participating universities. ATLAS experiment for Large Hadron Collider (LHC) in Switzerland uses SINET international lines in order to share measured data between participating countries and Japan.

5 Usage Example in Nuclear Fusion Science Large Helical Device (LHD) and its measured data are shared among universities and NIFS through SINET VPN, and the data volume has been increasing. Rokkasho-mura, the remote site of ITER, is open for supercomputer simulations from Europe LHD data Tokyo Univ. Source: National Institute for Fusion Science (NIFS) ITER Kyoto Univ. Large Helical Device (LHD) L3VPN/VPLS ITER data ITER remote site (Rokkasho-mura) QUEST data Kyushu Univ. NIFS s data collection system for LHD QUEST (Q-shuUniv. Exp. with Steady- State Spherical Tokamak) ITER in France 4

6 Usage Example in Seismology This project gathers the data measured at earthquake sensors into data collection devices and distributes the data to all the collection devices by using SINET VPLS broadcast capabilities.

7 Astronomical evlbi transfers huge amounts of measured data (over 8 Gbps) by using on-demand layer-1 paths which are established between remote antennas and NAOJ. * VLBI: Very Long Baseline Interferometry Celestial object Usage Example in Astronomy Source: National Astronomical Observatory of Japan (NAOJ) Tomakomai 11m Yamaguchi 32m SINET L1OD L1 on-demand Server Gifu 11m Request (Destinations, duration, bandwidth, and options) Quasi-stellar object imaged by evlbi Tsukuba 32m NAOJ : On-demand layer-1 path Researcher 6

8 7 Usage Example in Geodesy Geodesic evlbi forms a global virtual telescope through international collaboration and monitors plate motions, locates Japan's position in the world, and monitors the orientation of the earth.

14 Network Topology of SINET5 SINET5 uses nationwide dark fibers with redundancy in order to create a scalable and reliable backbone network. Each SINET node is connected with each other by ROADMs and MPLS-TP devices.

15 Fully-Meshed Topology and Minimized Latency SINET5 directly connects each pair of IP routers with the corresponding MPLS-TP paths. This fully-meshed topology creates a minimized-latency and SDN-friendly backbone network.
