2000 An ultrahigh performance testbed with OC-48 connections should be completed and ready for the testing of models for things like management tools and NGI protocols, as well as high value applications such as those including remote or real time connections.
2001 There are plans for networking and applications research on the 1000x testbed. The plan also includes integration of QoS ("Quality of Service", a guarantee of a certain throughput value) over several different technologies and carriers.
2002 The Initiative plans to be able to demonstrate terabit-per-second packet switching and test 10+ applications using the ultrahigh performance testbed.
