Connection of Boston University to NSFNET

波士顿大学有几位研究人员 from access访问to supersupercomputer超级computing计算. 通过这一赠款的连接 到NSFNET，他们将能够访问六个联邦资助的 超级计算中心由国家科学院 基金会网络（NSFNET）。 校园将由一个 中速（每秒56，000波特）通信线路 JVNC网络作为新英格兰扩展的一部分， 现有的联盟网络。 这条通信线路以及 网关/路由器将由约翰·冯·诺依曼 中心通过补充赠款，以他们目前的奖项。 网络管理服务也将由JVNC提供。

Boston University has several researchers who would benefit from access to supercomputing. Through this grant for connection to NSFNET, they will be able to access six federally-funded supercomputing centers which are linked by the National Science Foundation Network (NSFNET). The campus will be connected by a medium speed (56,000 baud per second) communication line to the JVNC network as part of a New England extension to their already existing consortium network. This communication line as well as the gateway/router will be provided by the John von Neumann Center through a supplemental grant to their current award. Network management service will also be provided by JVNC.
