ABSTRACTThis award is to build a prototype data collection, processing and management system based on the specifications for NEON Embedded Cyberinfrastructure (ECI) and Cyberinfrastructure (CI) as defined in the NEON site-independent design. The specific activities are designed to reduce the risk in the final design and implementation of the NEON CI, ECI, and sensor deployment. By doing an end-to-end prototype, critical risk issues (e.g. wireless platform, sensor integration, communication functions, database interface, etc.) will be addressed. A diagnostic testbed will be established and consist of deployed environmental sensors and the NEON Wireless platform which together comprise the ECI, and the Point-of-Presence (PoP) which manages data transmissions between a NEON site and the central office. Use of a field facility will provide "real-world" challenges in implementing and managing the infrastructure and software. Together, these two components will provide a functional, end to end testbed for evaluation and refinement of NEON Cyberinfrastructure design. The ECI components will be deployed at the James Reserve, California. The CI components will be deployed at the San Diego Supercomputer Center. Broader impacts of this work will be the creation of (1) detailed specifications and benchmark metrics of NEON CI that are available to the broader CI development community that will potentially be contributing to environmental infrastructure, and (2) mechanisms for communication and coordination between NEON development teams and this broader community regarding standards and specifications.

摘要该奖项旨在根据 NEON 独立站点设计中定义的 NEON 嵌入式网络基础设施 (ECI) 和网络基础设施 (CI) 规范构建原型数据收集、处理和管理系统。具体活动旨在降低 NEON CI、ECI 和传感器部署的最终设计和实施中的风险。通过制作端到端原型，关键风险问题（例如无线平台、传感器集成、通信功能、数据库接口等）将得到解决。将建立一个诊断测试台，由部署的环境传感器和 NEON 无线平台组成，它们共同构成 ECI 以及管理 NEON 站点和中央办公室之间数据传输的存在点 (PoP)。现场设施的使用将为实施和管理基础设施和软件带来“现实世界”的挑战。这两个组件将共同提供一个功能性的端到端测试平台，用于评估和完善 NEON 网络基础设施设计。 ECI 组件将部署在加利福尼亚州詹姆斯保护区。 CI 组件将部署在圣地亚哥超级计算机中心。这项工作的更广泛影响将是创建 (1) NEON CI 的详细规范和基准指标，可供更广泛的 CI 开发社区使用，这可能有助于环境基础设施；(2) NEON 开发团队和更广泛的社区之间有关标准和规范的沟通和协调机制。
