CISE Research Infrastructure: A Next Generation Computing and Communications Substrate

下一代计算和通信基板该奖项旨在支持康奈尔大学的研究人员为新的计算和通信基板开发技术，这种新的计算和通信基板可以“随时随地访问任何东西”。为了实现这一目标，康奈尔大学的研究人员计划：(1)进行基础性的新研究；(2)开发集成系统以展示其结果的力量；以及(3)测试这些系统。为了开发建议的系统，关键是要用真实的系统和真实的用户来测试它们。这些研究人员计划利用他们的教学活动作为现成的用户来源来测试他们的系统，并使用这些系统来传播他们的研究成果和提供实验性的信息服务。康奈尔大学正在向全校范围内的ATM和交换式以太网通信网络迈进，这最终将使他们能够在拥有2万名用户的全校网络上测试他们的系统。他们还预计将发布自己的系统，供其他学术机构和企业使用。

CDA-9703470 Huttenlocher, Daniel Cornell University A Next Generation Computing and Communication Substrate This award is to support researchers at Cornell to develop technologies for a new computing and communications substrate that provides "access to anything, anytime, anywhere". To achieve this goal Cornell researchers plan to: (1) do fundamental new research, (2) develop integrated systems to demonstrate the power of their results, and (3) test these systems. In order to develop the proposed systems, it is critical to test them with real systems and real users. These researchers plan to use their teaching activities as a ready source of users to test their systems, as well as using the systems to disseminate their research results and to provide experimental information services. Cornell University is moving towards a campus-wide hybrid ATM and switched ethernet communications network, which will eventually enable them to test their systems with campus-wide network of 20,000 users. They also expect to release their systems for use by other academic institutions and businesses.
