Abstract
Since our last update, we would like to bring the committee up to date on activities between the US and Brazil under the auspices of the Center for High Energy Physics Research and Educational Outreach (CHEPREO1), including the link between Miami and Sao Paulo, the Sao Paulo cluster, the outlook map for the Brazilian GIGA project. Additionally, we will report on (1) developing synergies between CHEPREO and the UltraLight program; (2) a network monitoring research grant from CISCO; (3) a proposal for a Western Hemisphere Research and Education Networking (WHREN) governance structure and Links Interconnecting Latin America (LILA), in response to the National Science Foundation International Research Network Connections (IRNC) program; and (4) a grant from the National Science Foundation to conduct a 1-week Pan-American Advanced Studies Institute (PASI) on Grid Computing and Advanced Networking Technologies for e-Science High-Energy Physics and Astronomy.
