Gurcharan,

Sorry regarding my ignorance on anything more than the basic concept of Access Grid.
I have perused their web site, but had two simple questions I could not find answered:

1. Is it possible to set up a simple client to just "peek in" and not participate? If so, is there a quick-start install guide?
I looked below, but did not find anything appropriate
http://www.accessgrid.org/documentation
i.e. don't mind some command line work, but are there any GUI admin tools?

2. How much bandwidth is typically required to use it, for example in your case? Is there a minimum bandwidth requirement?

Please point me to any FAQs, sorry to bother you at a busy time.
If anyone else has some answers, that's fine.

Thanks

Hi,

I will be showing off the RIT ICELab tomorrow evening for Vinton Cerf (who will be
speaking on Friday) and will be demo'ing the work-in-progress RIT Global Collaboration
Grid which now consists of Access Grid and DVTS technologies.

If you would like to drop-in and be present, that would help demonstrate the global aspect
of this concept. For Access Gridders, audio will be live, should there be time to talk. But
mainly I would like to show the quality and quantity of live video, the main qualities for
me for the RIT Global Collaboration Grid concept. We have AG nodes in Kosovo and
Croatia, but they will be 'dark' at that time.

I especially encourage you if you can send DV streams inside of Access Grid as the
ExtendedVideoProducerService in Windows or the 'enhanced' vic in Linux that supports
DV streams. Of course, anyone is welcome to show up in whatever codec you can.

The AG Venue will be the Rochester Institute of Technology Venue in the ANL Server.
The URL is: https://vv3.mcs.anl.gov:8000/Venues/8cdd226521d429b68e7e8c0158a6a663

Again, being a demo as part of a larger tour, the time scheduled could slip either way
and there may or may not be time to have two-way conversation but we will play it by ear.

Thanks,

-gurcharan
