LITE and Christie Digital Debut LONI Fiber-optic Network at Supercomputing 07
Visitors to the Supercomputing 07 conference in Reno, Nevada, Nov. 10-16, 2007, had the opportunity to experience firsthand the power of high-bandwidth, low-latency optical networks when they immersed themselves in live visual simulations ranging from hurricanes to house fires. Conference attendees explored these simulations from inside a large stereoscopic display located at the Reno Convention Center, while the actual computations and data were housed at a large supercomputing complex located 2000 miles away at the Louisiana Immersive Technologies Enterprise (LITE) in Lafayette, La.

This long-distance, virtual magic was made possible largely by the Louisiana Optical Network Initiative (LONI), a fiber-optic network that connects computers at Louisiana universities and research centers and links them to the National LambdaRail, the nation's optical fiber backbone. more>>
