​Applications and Tools

The power of the GÉANT and NREN networks comes from the applications researchers use across them. By developing innovative uses for the network barriers to research can be broken down and collaboration across Europe is increased. These activities have been designed to investigate how the GÉANT network can support advanced research activities and projects.

There are four projects in the Applications and Tools category, each listed below:

ARES: Advanced Networking for EU genomic research​ Participants: University of Perugia; Polo d'Innovazione di Genomica, Genetica e Biologica SCARL

​CEOVDS: Cross-site Evaluation of an OpenFlow-assisted Video-on-Demand Distribution Service Participant: Lancaster University

​eMusic: Using GÉANT dynamic circuits to support remote collaboration in musical education and eCulture Participants: CESNET; GARR; Janet; Academy of Performing Arts in Prague; Conservatorio di Musica Giuseppe Tartini; Edinburgh Napier University

​NSI-CONTEST: Network Service Interface Conformance Test Suite Participants: PSNC; Nextworks
