Infoshare: What's New in the Network eAcademy?
The Network eAcademy keeps expanding its reach, and growing with new educational resources, additional learning units and entire new tracks. In this Infoshare, we will give details about the recently created Quantum Tech eAcademy and Optical Time & Frequency Networks (OTFN) eAcademy, as well as updates on various developments, such as the Artificial Intelligence (AI) section in the Network Automation eAcademy. The Infoshare will also serve as the ground for discussion about future...
Tripling down on learning: GÉANT’s Network eAcademy expands beyond Network Automation with Quantum and Time & Frequency courses | GÉANT CONNECT Online
The GÉANT (GN5-1) Project initiative elevating community expertise in advanced networking technologies keeps expanding its reach and growing, with new educational resources, additional learning units, and entire new programmes. In this article, we launch the Quantum Tech eAcademy, disclose plans for the upcoming Optical Time & Frequency Networks (OTFN) eAcademy, and provide updates on various
An exciting first meeting of the Special Interest Group for #TimeandFrequency took place at the University of Amsterdam, focusing on #metrology and the #science of accurate #time.
SIG-TFN looked into some challenging use cases from redefining the System of Units (SI), detecting #gravitational waves, testing new #physics and supporting European-wide commercial #services such as very accurate time stamps for banks to validate high-frequency trading.

SIG-TFN meet for the first time! | GÉANT CONNECT Online
The first ever SIG-TFN meeting took place on 16-17 October in Amsterdam, kindly hosted by the University of Amsterdam at their research and innovation hub - Science Park. SIG-TFN was established in February 2024 with the aim of providing a forum for the community working around Time and Frequency distribution across Research and Education Networks.
So much of fundamental #science relies on being able to measure everything with precision and virtually all these measures rely on #TimeMeasurement.
The GÉANT & #NRENs community will contribute to this during the GN5-2 project by developing a pan-European fibre-based #network to support the interconnection of #OpticalClocks.
A pathfinder project between Poznan (PSNC) & Braunschweig (PTB) has already been successfully completed!

“I’ll be a second”, “Can I borrow you for a second?”, “Have you got a second?”. Phrases we hear many times each day but what exactly is a second? Since, well time immemorial, we have been attempting to measure time to greater and greater degrees of precision and accuracy because so much of fundamental science

Infoshare: Precision Time Protocol (PTP) operational issues – 31 January 2024 | GÉANT CONNECT Online
31 January 2024, 14:00-15:30 CET A GÉANT infoshare on 31 January 2024 will present insights into the deployment of the Precision Time Protocol (PTP). Moving from Network Time Protocol (NTP) to PTP helps to support services and applications requiring higher levels of accuracy and precision in networks. As this migration may involve the introduction of
