As the Middle East higher education sector increasingly develops its research capabilities,
NRENs will become more and more important in driving this development.
According to Asfour, the process of building a 21st century
NREN for the interaction of academic institutions usually begins with the development of a high-speed, reliable, cost-effective network that can be used by universities and research institutions.
Supported by leading
NRENs in the United Kingdom (UK), the Netherlands (NL), Finland (FI) and the United States (USA), the EYR program is designed to identify research programs that could significantly benefit from enhanced global network connectivity.
The main topic of discussion at the conference was the creation of an open exchange point supporting development of a GCC-wide network of
NRENs and broader connectivity to other regional and global networks.
Alice Collaborative Infrastructure Supporting Educational Use of
NREN - Phase I establishes a collaboration among TERC and the state education agencies of California, Connecticut, Nebraska, Texas and Virginia.
It also encourages the
NREN computers to use private networks, instead of publicly subsidized ones.
Alongside our
NREN partners, were proving how quantum-safe site-to-site connectivity can be achieved using our FSP 3000 optical transport technology with ConnectGuard AES encryption and a post-quantum key exchange algorithm.
Jisc, which operates the busiest National Research and Education Network (
NREN) in Europe by volume of data carried, is deploying Ciena's (NYSE: CIEN) 6500 packet-optical platform powered by WaveLogic Ai coherent optics to provide unprecedented high-capacity 400G wavelength connectivity, the company said.
Currently, together with its
NREN partners, the GEANT pan-European network connects over 50 million users at 10,000 institutions across Europe, supporting scientific research and discovery in areas such as energy, the environment, space and medicine.
