IT Site Visit for the Barrow Global Climate Change Research Facility

Sheehan这次信息技术（IT）研讨会的目的是发展一个提案的基础，该提案将提交给国家科学基金会（NSF），以提供一个基于新的巴罗全球气候变化研究设施（BGCCRF）的显著改善的基础设施。BGCCRF的动力是为未来30年的研究提供场所，与1969年建造的海军北极研究中心（NARL）的360号楼相同。除了架构，研讨会还将为不久的将来制定计划：用于运行网络的硬件;存储、保护和检索科学领域数据;通信;应用程序、管理和后台服务器;以及工作站、打印机、绘图仪和研究人员前端所需的其他设备。

Abstract06-11423SheehanThe objective of this Information Technology (IT) workshop is to develop the basis of a proposal that would be submitted to National Science Foundation (NSF) to provide a significantly improved infrastructure based around the new Barrow Global Climate Change Research Facility (BGCCRF). The impetus of the BGCCRF is to house research for the next thirty years, in the same fashion as Building 360 of the Naval Arctic Research Center (NARL) which was constructed in 1969. In addition to architecture, the workshop will plan for the immediate future:hardware for running networks; storing, protecting, and retrieving scientific field data;communications; application, administrative, and back office servers; as well asworkstations, printers, plotters, and the other equipment needed on the front end forresearchers.This workshop will involve roughly fifteen IT specialists and researchers to discuss the science driven needs.
