Little Global Ring Network for Advanced Application Development
Little Global Ring Network for Advanced Application Development (
Little GLORIAD) is a high-speed
computer network, with
bandwidth of up to 155
Mbit/s (National Science Foundation, 2003), designed to connect the computers of
scientists in
Russia and
China to those in the
United States and
