Introduction
With the advent of service sensitive applications (such as remote- controlled experiments, time constrained massive data transfers, video-conferencing, etc.), it has become apparent that there is a need to augment the services present in today"s Energy Sciences Network (ESnet) infrastructure. The On-Demand Secure Circuits and Advance Reservation System (OSCARS) project prototypes one such new service: dynamically provisioned, guaranteed bandwidth secure circuits both within ESnet, and between ESnet and other network domains.
OSCARS is funded out of the DOE Office of Science. The official project page has links to the original proposal, a project summary, and presentations on OSCARS. Based on the original proposal, functional and design specifications were written to formalize the plans for the implementation. The original implementation was based on the Internet2 BRUW project. Since then, the two projects have merged and share a common code base. The
