GENI Working Group Meetings - Opt-in

最终用户选择加入工作组是致力于目前处于规划阶段的一套实验性网络基础设施的技术设计特定领域的五个工作组之一，每年举办三次讲习班，持续举办：1）识别和解决设计问题，2）识别技术风险领域，3）审查GENI项目办公室准备的文件，（四）开展外联活动。该奖项为联合主席提供资金，用于他们参加为期一年的研讨会。通过开放，透明，管理良好的设计过程，社区将有充分的机会对一套实验性网络基础设施的设计提出意见和贡献。 在设计过程的早期就让社区参与进来，将确保基础设施具有研究社区中许多人所需的功能和能力。讲习班的主题包括：例如，详细的开放式设计问题和权衡、风险评估和缓解、通用词汇表和模型、设计和集成活动、用例以及软件和服务的评估。主席将负责研讨会的准备、主持研讨会、结果传播和进度报告。这些资金将使主席能够招募各种与会者，主持和出席会议，并广泛传播成果。

The End User Opt-In Working Group, which is one of five Working Groups dedicated to particular areas of technical design for a suite of experimental network infrastructure currently in its planning stages, holds three workshops each year that, on a continuing basis: 1) identify and resolve design issues, 2) identify areas of technical risk, 3) review documents prepared by the GENI Project Office, and 4) engage in outreach. This award gives the co-chairs funds for their participation in a one-year set of workshops.By having an open, transparent, well-managed design process, the community will have ample opportunities to comment and contribute to the design of a suite of experimental network infrastructure. Engaging the community early in the design process will ensure that the infrastructure will have the functionality and capabilities required by many in the research community. Workshop topics include: detailed open design issues and tradeoffs, risk assessment and mitigation, common vocabulary and models, design and integration activities, use cases, and the evaluation of software and services, for example.The chairs will be responsible for workshop preparation, chairing workshops, results dissemination, and progress reporting. These funds will enable the chairs to recruit a diverse set of attendees, conduct and attend meetings, and broadly disseminate the results.
