The purpose of this workshop is to initiate a dialogue between the higher education CIO community and the GENI Project Office. EDUCAUSE, an association of over 2,000 institutions of higher education and their corporate partners, will convene the meeting at the end of August 2008. EDUCAUSE provides leadership on how to build and deploy advanced broadband networks in this country. This dialogue is central to linking US networked university research facilities to a suite of novel network experimental infrastructure, which is currently in the planning stages. Providing the means to link new experimental infrastructure to university campuses will allow network science and engineering researchers to pose interesting research questions and carry out experiments that could never be done before. The particular technologies, operational logistics, policies, management, and financial issues will be hammered out and negotiated at this workshop of approximately twenty to thirty university CIOs.Particular emphasis will be put on exploring how GENI may extend into and through their campuses. EDUCAUSE plans to work with the attendees to identify what is achievable and what the remaining challenges are in terms of national campus deployment. The GENI Project Office will learn what is important to campus IT departments and how to minimize any impacts on them. The longer-term impacts are that students and faculty across the country will benefit from using and experimenting on a suite of advanced experimental network infrastructure that is currently in the planning stages.

该研讨会的目的是在高等教育CIO社区和GENI项目办公室之间开展对话。EDUCAUSE是一个由2 000多所高等教育机构及其企业合作伙伴组成的协会，将于2008年8月底召开会议。EDUCAUSE在如何在这个国家建立和部署先进的宽带网络方面发挥领导作用。这一对话对于将美国网络化大学研究设施与一套新的网络实验基础设施联系起来至关重要，该基础设施目前正处于规划阶段。提供将新的实验基础设施连接到大学校园的方法，将使网络科学和工程研究人员能够提出有趣的研究问题，并进行以前从未做过的实验。特定的技术、运营物流、政策、管理和财务问题将在大约二十到三十名大学首席信息官的研讨会上得到敲定和谈判。特别重点将是探索GENI如何延伸到校园并通过校园。EDUCAUSE计划与与会者合作，以确定在国家校园部署方面可以实现的目标和剩余的挑战。GENI项目办公室将了解什么是重要的校园IT部门，以及如何尽量减少对他们的任何影响。长期的影响是，全国各地的学生和教师将受益于使用和试验一套先进的实验网络基础设施，目前正在规划阶段。
