Latest report to the NSF
December 2009

Welcome to TransPAC2.net

TransPAC2 is a high-speed international Internet service connecting research and education
networks in the Asia-Pacific region to those in the US. TransPAC2 furthers National Science Foundation (NSF) efforts to provide fundamental network infrastructure to support international e-science collaborations among researchers worldwide and is the 5-year continuation of the highly successful TransPAC project. TransPAC2 is part of the NSF’s International Research Network Connections (IRNC) program. NSF's TransPAC2 award.

Please visit the Documents section of the site to see the future/past workplans of TransPAC2.

"The primary goal of TransPAC2 is to increase research and educational (R/E) collaboration between the United States and Asia. To increase R/E collaboration, TransPAC2 will deploy a secure, production-quality high-performance network infrastructure between Asia and the US and will assist our Asian partners in the deployment of high-performance infrastructure within Asia. The TransPAC2 Project will provide documentation about how the TransPAC2 network can be used to further collaborations. TransPAC2 will enhance collaborations between US researchers and governments and Asian researchers and governments. TransPAC2 will also provide technical support for collaboration activities where requested."
