NICT to Conduct GMPLS Feasibility Test on US-Japan Conncetion.Tokyo, Japan, Sept 6, 2006 - (JCN) - The National Institute of Information and Communications Technology (NICT NICT National Incident Coordination Team (EPA) NICT New Information and Communication Technology/Technologies ) will conduct a feasibility test of Generalized Multi-Protocol Label Switching (GMPLS (Generalized Multiprotocol Label Switching) In a WDM optical networking system, it is the ability to route a data transmission based on the wavelength of light that carries it. ) between the U.S. and Japan in the Global Lambda Integrated Facility (GLIF GLIF Global Lambda Integrated Facility GLIF GuideLine Interchange Format ) workshop during the international conference of all-light networks, sponsored by NICT from September 7-13. The feasibility test is a joint project between NICT, KDDI Corporation, and the U.S. based MCNC, a non-profit organization which runs NCREN NCREN North Carolina Research and Education Network . The GMPLS controlled light network will be connected from Otemachi city in Japan to Chicago between which optical cross connect equipments, OXC will be set up in the various cities. The test will enable high definition transmission of movies in real-time. More infrormation on the NICT at http://www.nict.go.jp/index.html . Copyright [c] 2006 Japan Corporate News Network.
