Strategies for Application-Empowered Networks
E-science is data-intensive science.
How much data are we talking about? Now? By 2010?
Many e-science applications need to move large data or
interact, in real time, with large data. What are today's
networking barriers to doing so?

Strategies for Application-Empowered Networks
From your points of view, describe cyber-infrastructure
(in the USA) and e-infrastructure (in The Netherlands)
and their networking components. What applications are
taking advantage of new networking capabilities above
and beyond shared networks?

Strategies for Application-Empowered Networks
Define application-empowered networks, in terms of both physical characteristics (is it just bandwidth?) and services/middleware (to handle latency, jitter, scheduling, etc). How do they compare with general-purpose R&E networks (i.e., those that support a wide range of applications)? Do we need autonomous application-specific networks? Why are application-empowered networks only now becoming available?

Strategies for Application-Empowered Networks
What are the challenges to creating application-empowered networks? How do we solve them? In particular, one challenge is attracting users; how do we encourage e-scientists to use application-empowered networks, or any networks for that matter?

Strategies for Application-Empowered Networks
How are government-funded facilities (and networks) today addressing the needs of high-performance applications? What will the facilities (and networks) look like 2-3 years from now?
