World's Largest Internet Video Conference Features International Speakers at Alliance


Speakers from around the world, and audiences from hundreds of universities joined the October Internet2 Megaconference III and member meeting via live video conferencing and streaming at the Alliance for Higher Education’s new Center for Collaborative Learning, Research, and Communications Technology.

This fully interactive worldwide conference and Internet2 member meeting included topics such as networks of the future, grid technologies, international connectivity, middleware, video-based collaborations, science data distribution, wireless technologies on campuses, peer-to-peer, K-20 initiatives in advanced networking, performing arts, networks, and teaching.

This event was originally scheduled to be live, bringing international speakers to Austin. Due to the unfortunate events of September 11, it became one of the first worldwide live interactive broadcasts.
