How To Improve Biopharmaceutical Research Data Utilization?

In early November 2019, I witnessed firsthand as networking engineers at two supercomputing centers, Interdisciplinary Centre for Mathematical and Computational Modelling (ICM) – University of Warsaw (Poland) and ASTAR Computational Resource Centre (ACRC, Singapore) used this simple tool (running 5 instances at each end) to measure the available bandwidth of the new Collaboration Asia Europe-1 (CAE-1) 100Gbps link connecting London and Singapore across 12,375 miles. The figure below shows the undersea cable system used by CAE-1. Note that it has profound social impact: for the first time, many countries in the Mid-East, North Africa, and around the India Ocean now have 100Gbps “digital on-ramps” to the rest of the world!
