>Recording Studio that Spans a Continent using CA*net 3 and Internet 2
>===================================================================
>
>   Recording Engineers in Los Angeles will mix 12 high
>   quality audio channels streamed live over the Internet
>   from Montreal
>
>On Saturday September 23, a jazz group will perform in a
>concert hall at McGill University in Montreal and the
>recording engineers mixing the 12 channels of audio during
>the performance will not be in a booth at the back of the
>hall, but rather in a theatre at the University of Southern
>California in Los Angeles.
>
>
>World renowned recording engineers Bob Margoulef and Brant
>Biles will mix the 12 audio channels for an audience in the
>Norris Theatre at the USC School of Cinema and
>Television. The audience will see the McGill Jazz Orchestra,
>conducted by Gordon Foote, projected on a large screen. The
>high quality video is transmitted over the same Internet
>link as the audio. The demo will be using the new high speed
>internet networks CA*net3 in Canada and Internet2 in the
>U.S. Technical details are available at:
>http://www.cim.mcgill.ca/~jer/projects/aes
>
>
>The demonstration will be part of the 109th Audio
>Engineering Society Convention in Los Angeles
>http://www.aes.org/events/109. The techniques that will be
>used to stream high quality multichannel audio over the
>internet are being developed by a McGill University research
>project (http://www.mcgill.ca/icc/canarie) that is funded
>primarily by Canarie Inc. (http://www.canarie.ca) and Cisco
>Systems (http://www.cisco.com).

>CANARIE's 6th Advanced Networks Workshop
>Theme: "The Networked Nation"
>www.canarie.ca
>
>November 28 and 29, 2000
>Palais des Congrès
>Montreal, Quebec - Canada
>
>On-line Registration is now available.
>
>CANARIE, Canada's Advanced Internet Development Organization, is pleased to
>host its 6th Annual Advanced Networks Workshop.
>
>This year's theme, "The Networked Nation", will focus on application
>architectures ("grids") made up of customer owned dark fiber and next
>generation Internet networks like CA*net 3 that will ultimately lead to the
>development of the networked nation where eventually every school, home and
>business will have high bandwidth connection to the Internet.
>
>The conference will have 3 separate tracks focusing on how these fundamental
>concepts in next generation Internet will contribute to the building of the
>networked nation.
>
>The first track will focus on the latest development in customer owned dark
>fiber for schools, hospitals, businesses and homes. A number of invited
>speakers from municipalities, school boards and governments from around the
>world who are in the process of deploying, or are planning to deploy
>customer owned dark fiber networks will be featured. The speakers will talk
>about their real world experiences in deploying such networks and the
>significant new applications that are made possible by these type of
>networks.
>
>The second track will focus on next generation optical Internet
>architectures that will be a natural and seamless extension of the customer
>owned dark fiber networks being built for schools, homes and businesses.
>Speakers from advanced research networks around the world who are building
>next generation Internet networks will be featured in this track. Recent
>developments in optical Internet architectures including customer-controlled
>wavelengths will also be discussed.
>
>Finally the third track will focus on the deployment of "application grids",
>which are a seamless integration of dark fiber and optical networks to
>support specific collaborative research and education applications. These
>grids allow users who have access to customer owned dark fiber or optical
>networks like CA*net 3 to undertake data collection and distributed
>computing which in turn will allow researchers, students and sometimes the
>broader public to participate in the acquisition and analysis of
>information. A number of invited speakers will talk about current
>application grids that are currently being planned or deployed including
>seismic, undersea, high energy, high performance and ecological
>applications.
>
>Application grids such as these might well point the way towards a new mode
>of science and education, one that is built on a much more distributed,
>network-enabled process of data collection and analysis, and a much more
>tightly coupled process of problem solving among researchers and educators.
>
>On-line Registration is now available.
