Ben & Jim:
This note is a followup to the recent CETI conference in which
your campus participated. First of
all, let me express my personal appreciation to you and your
staff for all your cooperation and
support in that effort; it was very helpful in making the program
just as productive as we had hoped.
I am attaching a joint memo from Spencer Freund and Gary Adams
summarizing their views on the
outcomes of the conference/visitation program, and also conveying
their thanks for the gratifying
campus participation we experienced.
We are continuing to seek input to add to that already gleaned
from the many hours spent with
CSU site teams over the past couple of weeks. As part of that
effort, I am attaching a copy of the
notes the recorder made during the conference with your
personnel; if you have further comments
or any corrections, please see that they are returned to me by
Friday, December 5. As you are
aware, these notes are one important element to be used in the
preparation of the high-level work
scopes and related cost estimates which must be prepared by CETI
staff no later than December
15. We need your help to assure that the information is as
accurate and complete as is possible
within the short timeframe available.
One particular document which remains a special focus for
systemwide input is the developing
Network Infrastructure Buildout
model definition. The latest version of that language is yet
another
attachment to this note, as also is a request for comparison data
relating the model to your specific
local infrastructure needs.
<<<<
To help us in determining the scope of work and cost for the
terminal (electronic) equipment we need to
request two additional items from each campus: (1) The number of
data ports that currently exist within
each state owned building for your campus with a campus total;
(2) The approximate number of data
ports needed to get the campus to minimum baseline. We will then
use the "delta" or the "additional
ports required" along with a standard cost per data port
being developed by the CETI infrastructure
team to determine the scope of work and cost. Please include your
input with your December 5 response
as requested in the preceding paragraph.
Also enclosed is the current rev #8 of the Network Infrastructure
Buildout modelfor your information and
use.
>>>>
I am FAXing to you the current versions of the schematic
illustrations associated with the model,
since those illustrations create graphics files that are a bit
awkward to send by E-mail. Again, we
are asking that you submit both any comments you would like to
offer on the model definition
language (which is certainly a work still in progress) and the
requested comparison data by
December 5.
Thanks for any new assistance you can provide in these matters.
Best regards,
Ken Secor
