Overview
The Science Information Network (SINET) is an information communication network connecting universities and research institutions throughout Japan via nationwide nodes (connection points); it is designed to promote research and education as well as the circulation of scientific information among universities, research institutions, and similar entities. The Science Information Network is also connected to research networks such as Abilene in the U.S. and GÉANT in Europe to facilitate the international dissemination of research information and to promote collaboration with research networks overseas.
SINET3 began operations in April 2007, and it replaces the previous SINET and Super SINET. SINET3 plays an important role as the core component of the Cyber Science Infrastructure (CSI).
