attribute/identity linking, collaboration and virtual organizations
I2 StuffI2 Stuff
• Divorce with NLR now final; competition is on• Changes in governance, may lead to change in
leadership, may lead to a change in culture…• Newnet rolling out well; lots of delta politics; control
plane is real need; DICE and global scheduling• InCommon slowly growing; other US federations
occurring at state and medical levels• US Gov interfederation peering is as strange as the
US Gov • InQueue is going away…
Product UpdateProduct Update
• Shib
• Signet
• Grouper

Areas of fermentAreas of ferment
• The GridShib family
• Workflow
• SOA architectures
• Attribute movement/identity linking
• Virtual organizations
General collaboration toolsGeneral collaboration tools
• The standard suite…• List serve, protected wiki, IM buddy list,
audioconferencing, access-controlled web site, videoconferencing, shared calendaring, etc…
• Integrated with enterprise-based systems• No separate calendars to maintain• Consistent user interface in managing local
and virtual lives
An Archetype: Jean Blue and VOGUEAn Archetype: Jean Blue and VOGUE
• Professor Jean Blue• Professor of Micro-astro Physics at
Sandstone U, teaching MAP 1010• PI of international VOGUE project• Fiscal authority of local VOGUE funds• Parking permit for Lot 421• ID Card
Things that Jean Blue wants to doThings that Jean Blue wants to do
• As PI of VOGUE, she gets lots of VOGUE privileges. She wants to• Assign to students of MAPS 101 permission to read
the VOGUE mass-hypometer• Assign to the four TA/discussion leaders permission
to reset the mass-hypometer• Facilitate on-line discussions among the students
taking classes at other universities from her co-PI’s• Have read/write privileges on the VOGUE wiki, and
give her students read access to parts of the Wiki
Vision in one slideVision in one slide
• Build a campus/enterprise core middleware infrastructure that• Serves the overall enterprise IT environment, providing business
drivers and institutional investment for sustainability and scalability• Is designed to support the research and instructional missions
• Implies consistent approaches and common practices across campuses and internationally
• Build, plumb, and replumb the tools of research on top of that emergent infrastructure• Domain-specific middleware (grids, sensor nets, etc)• Common collaboration tools (video, protected wikis, shared
calendaring, audioconferencing, etc.)
The Current Kool-aidThe Current Kool-aid
• Campuses build consistent and sustainable middleware infrastructures
• Federating software and federations create effective inter-institutional collaboration infrastructure
• Federations peer internationally and across sectors to extend the value
• Virtual organizations leverage campus infrastructure and peered federations for user-centric enterprise-manageable teams
