The Aurora Gigabit Testbed linked researchers at MIT, the University of Pennsylvania, the University of Arizona, Bellcore and IBM. The Aurora partnership included Nynex, Bell Atlantic and MCI, who investigated issues related to the gigabit transmission facilities which they provided to the research teams.
Aurora activities at MIT were undertaken by two groups: the Telemedia, Networks and Systems (TNS) Group and the Advanced Network Architecture (ANA) Group. Section 1 of this report describes the work performed by the MIT/TNS group, under the direction of David Tennenhouse; Section 2 describes the work of the MIT/ANA Group, under the direction of David Clark; the Appendixes list the publications and students supported by the project.
