The WHREN-LILA Project
  • Proposal submitted by Florida International
    University (FIU) and the Corporation for
    Education Network Initiatives in California
    (CENIC) - Award 0441095
  • Links Interconnecting Latin America (LILA) aims
    to Improve connectivity in the Americas through
    the establishment of new inter-regional links
  • Western-Hemisphere Research and Education
    Networks (WHREN) is a coordinating body of
    organizations from across North and South America
    that aims to leverage the network resources of
    participating members to foster collaborative
    research and advance education throughout the
    Western Hemisphere

Project Goals
  • Improve network connectivity between North and
    South America through the deployment, operation
    and evolution of LILA links
  • Evolve the LILA links to their fullest capacities
    as resources and economies permit
  • Foster collaborative research and advance
    education throughout the Western Hemisphere and
    other world regions
  • Support the evolving needs of US science and
    engineering researchers
  • Foster new inter-regional and inter-disciplinary
    communities of researchers and learners

WHREN - Coordination in the Western Hemisphere
  • WHREN will establish a consortium of
    participating western-hemisphere organizations
    that will collectively oversee the assignment of
    lightpaths across administrative domains
  • A Governance Committee (GC) will collectively
    oversee the assignment and management of
    lightpaths and provide coordination between
    member organizations
  • A Research Advisory Committee will be formed to
    advise the GC on program and network needs for
    the broad research and education community
  • An Engineering Committee (EC) will be comprised
    of engineering managers from the various networks
    participating in WHREN
