This project will enable a connection from Tennessee Technological University (TTU) to the Abilene/Internet2 backbone through Vanderbilt University (VU) via a 45 megabit per second DS3 line. Driving research applications include electric power, water resources, manufacturing research, and clinical informatics. Research activities requiring a high-speed connection include improving machining techniques through collaborative design and remote simulation and observation of the machining process; enabling spatial and temporal data transfer and processes in real time; high-performance networks and distributed network storage; developing new models of human/computer interaction in clinical informatics; Improved collaboration with Oak Ridge National Laboratory. Two new courses in networking are proposed. Students will be involved in network research. The university serves rural Tennessee and plans to examine potential communication between commodity Internet sites using its Abilene/Internet 2 connectivity and intelligent routing. TTU has a minority engineering program and has aggressively pursued recruiting African-American students for computer science and engineering study. This connection will benefit those students in addition to the entire TTU student body.

该项目将实现从田纳西理工大学(TTU)到Abilene/Internet2主干的连接，通过范德比尔特大学(VU)通过45兆位每秒的DS3线路。驱动研究应用包括电力、水资源、制造研究和临床信息学。需要高速连接的研究活动包括通过协作设计以及加工过程的远程模拟和观察来改进加工技术；实现实时的空间和时间数据传输和过程；高性能网络和分布式网络存储；开发临床信息学中的人/计算机交互的新模型；改善与橡树岭国家实验室的合作。建议开设两门新的网络课程。学生将参与网络研究。该大学为田纳西州的农村地区提供服务，并计划利用其Abilene/Internet 2连接和智能路由来检查商品互联网站点之间的潜在通信。TTU有一个少数人工程项目，并积极招收计算机科学和工程专业的非裔美国学生。这一联系将使这些学生以及整个TTU学生群体受益。
