IT Site Visit for the Barrow Global Climate Change Research Facility

本次信息技术(IT)研讨会的目标是为提交给美国国家科学基金会(NSF)的一份提案奠定基础，该提案旨在围绕新的巴罗全球气候变化研究基金(BGCCRF)提供显著改善的基础设施。BGCCRF的动力是容纳未来30年的研究，就像1969年建造的海军北极研究中心(NARL)的360号楼一样。除架构外，研讨会还将规划未来：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；以及研究人员前端所需的工作站、打印机、绘图仪和其他设备。此次研讨会将有大约15名IT专家和研究人员参加，讨论科学驱动的需求。

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.
