-Gigabit fiber Gigabit broadband, Firefox, Mozilla-IT information Gigabit broadband can do?

Under the lead of Google fiber broadband services, United States many cities are entering Gigabit Fibre broadband era. At such high speeds, means that the need to develop new products and services on the Internet. Recently, Firefox developer Mozilla Corporation, will introduce incentive Fund, to reward the Gigabit broadband Internet products in order to encourage the industry to develop .

On Friday, Mozilla announced "the Mozilla community Gigabit broadband Fund" Gigabit broadband Internet applications and services will be a total of 300,000-dollar prize. It is reported that this Fund won the United States National Science Foundation, as well as a name for the "USIgnite" company's support. Broadband application developer, you can receive awards ranging from $ 5,000 to $ 30,000.

At present, the United States has had include Gigabit broadband in Chattanooga, Tennessee, Kansas City, Kansas .

In the area of super wide-band, Google is undoubtedly the most concern for manufacturers, has been in Kansas City and other cities launched the price is very affordable Gigabit broadband service. Gigabit broadband, and even sparked a new wave of Internet start-ups, many young people are crowding together in Kansas City, to develop new products and services, intended to seize Super broadband services market .

Under the stimulus of Google, United States Telecom giants such as Verizon, Comcast, beginning in the Gigabit fiber optic follow up in the area. Companies like Mozilla and Google also in the Internet product and service go hand in hand, in order to advance the United States development of Gigabit broadband.

Allegedly, Chattanooga, Tennessee, before Google has pioneered a Gigabit fiber optic broadband service, followed by United States cities followed up, such as Lafayette, Louisiana, Wilson, North Carolina. For Google, after the success of the pilot project in Kansas City, Google has decided to extend Gigabit broadband to Austin, Texas, and Salt Lake City, Utah.

And the United States compared to the current average Internet bandwidth, Gigabit Fibre broadband speeds up to 50 times. This sounds like good news, for ordinary Internet users, however, they are wondering: can I use Gigabit broadband, what features do. This is exactly what Mozilla Foundation purpose, is to develop a richer, more conducive to the lives of the people of the Internet.

Mozilla says they will award a project, it must be shown that the emerging Gigabit broadband technology can be integrated into the daily lives of ordinary people. Mozilla also said that applications for development projects, must be rooted in local communities, functional and practical, can be put into use in the near future, and we can have a measurable effect, can be copied in other cities and the promotion.

In addition, as part of pushing for fibre broadband applications, Mozilla will work with the organizations, launched the digital media education programs in Chattanooga and Kansas City, in New York City and Chicago before, Mozilla has launched a "Hive of learning communities" educational program.

Zhiqian, Mozilla has launched similar Gigabit broadband application development awards scheme, such as encouraging the development of emergency rescue system based on Super broadband, virtual fitness equipment.

In broadband services, the highest video bandwidth services, such as in the United States in Internet traffic, is reserved for the top video service Netflix. Netflix and other video Web sites, have said they would launch the 4K of HD video services, ultra high definition video will become one of the popular applications using Gigabit broadband potential.

千兆宽带能干什么？ - 千兆光纤,千兆宽带,火狐,Mozilla - IT资讯
千兆宽带能干什么？

在谷歌光纤宽带服务的带动之下，美国的许多城市，正在进入千兆光纤宽带时代。如此高的网速，意味着需要开发全新的互联网产品和服务。日前，火狐浏览器的开发商Mozilla公司宣布，将推出奖励基金，对千兆宽带的互联网产品进行奖励，以鼓励业界进行开发。

周五，Mozilla宣布建立“Mozilla千兆宽带社区基金”，将向千兆宽带互联网应用和服务项目一共奖励30万美元。据报道，这一基金获得了美国全国科学基金会以及一家名为“USIgnite”的公司的支持。宽带应用开发人员，可以获得5000美元到三万美元不等的奖励。

目前，美国已具备千兆宽带的地区包括田纳西州的Chattanooga，堪萨斯州的堪萨斯城等。

在超级宽带领域，谷歌无疑是最受人关注的厂商，目前已经在堪萨斯城等多个城市推出了价格十分实惠的千兆宽带服务。千兆宽带，甚至引发了新一轮的互联网创业潮，许多年轻人在堪萨斯城扎堆，开发新产品和服务，意图在超级宽带服务市场占据先机。

在谷歌的刺激之下，美国Verizon、康卡斯特等电信巨头，开始在千兆光纤宽带领域进行跟进。而Mozilla以及谷歌等公司，也希望在互联网产品和服务上齐头并进，从而推进美国千兆宽带的发展。

据称，田纳西州的Chattanooga在谷歌之前已经首先推出了千兆光纤宽带服务，随后，美国多个城市跟进，比如路易斯安那州的Lafayette，北卡罗来纳州的Wilson。对于谷歌而言，在堪萨斯城的试验性项目获得成功之后，谷歌已经决定把千兆宽带推广到德克萨斯州的奥斯汀，以及犹他州的盐湖城。

和美国目前的平均上网带宽相比，千兆光纤宽带的速度提高了50倍。这听上去是一个好消息，然而对于普通网民而言，他们也存在疑惑：我到底可以利用千兆宽带，来完成什么功能。这正是Mozilla设立奖励基金的目的，就是开发出更加丰富、更有助于民众生活的互联网产品。

Mozilla公司表示，他们将会奖励的项目，必须能够证明新兴的千兆宽带技术，可以融入普通人每天的生活。Mozilla也表示，申请的开发项目，必须根植于本地社区，功能实用，可以在近期投入使用，另外可以产生可测量的效果，另外可以在其他城市进行复制和推广。

另外，作为推动光纤宽带应用计划的一部分，Mozilla还将和一些组织合作，在Chattanooga和堪萨斯城推出数字媒体教育计划，之前在纽约市、芝加哥市，Mozilla已经推出了“Hive学习社区”教育计划。

之前，Mozilla也推出过类似的千兆宽带应用开发奖励计划，比如鼓励开发基于超级宽带的紧急救援系统、虚拟健身设备等。

在宽带服务中，视频算是占用带宽最高的服务，比如在美国互联网流量中，占比排名第一的就是版权视频服务商Netflix。而Netflix等视频网站，纷纷表示将推出4K超高清视频服务，超高清视频，将会成为利用千兆宽带潜力的热门应用之一。
