Abstract
High Performance Wide Area Networks (HP-WANs) represent a critical infrastructure for the modern global research and education community, facilitating collaboration across national and international boundaries. These networks, such as Janet, ESnet, GÉANT, Internet2, CANARIE, and others, are designed to support the general needs of the research and education users they serve but also the the transmission of vast amounts of data generated by scientific research, high-performance computing, distributed AI-training and large-scale simulations. This document provides an overview of the terminology and techniques used for existing HP-WANS. It also explores the technological advancements, operational tools, and future directions for HP-WANs, emphasising their role in enabling cutting-edge scientific research, big data analysis, AI training and massive industrial data analysis.
