GENI-FIRE Workshop

本次研讨会是一系列双边研讨会中的第三次，重点是GENI（NSF支持的一套网络研究基础设施）和FIRE（欧盟委员会支持的网络研究人员倡议）之间的合作、协作和联合。第一个讲习班在马德里举行;第二个讲习班在西雅图举行。这一次将在布鲁塞尔举行的30 9月和10月1日在欧盟的房地。欧盟委员会的FIREWorks项目正在推动这一活动。Serge Fdida（欧盟）和Joe Evans（美国）担任联合主席。 该提案将资助大约18名美国研究人员和开发人员前往布鲁塞尔参加研讨会的旅费，研讨会的重点将是在相同领域开展工作的FIRE和GENI项目之间的双边讨论。正在为这一双边对话确定不同的主题，以便进行深入的技术交流，并确定可能的合作。这些主题将包括传感器、云、服务架构、智能城市、社交网络、安全和网络基础设施等。理想情况下，这些双边讨论将通过确定双边团队来推动合作努力，这些双边团队将计划和开发利用GENI和FIRE基础设施能力的跨大西洋实验。讲习班将在若干方面产生影响。通过建立互补的优势，这里设想的合作将使两个社区加快和扩大网络和未来互联网研究的视野。该研讨会和由此产生的合作提供了国际范围内的具体研究和教育机会。

This workshop is the third in a series of bi-lateral workshops focused on cooperation, collaboration and federation between GENI, a suite of network research infrastructure supported by NSF, and FIRE, a networking researchers' initiative supported by the European Commission. The first workshop was held in Madrid; the second one was held in Seattle. This one will take place in Brussels the 30 September and 1 October at the EU premises. The EC project FIREWorks is facilitating the event. Serge Fdida (EU) and Joe Evans (US) are serving as co-chairs. This proposal will support the travel costs of about 18 US researchers and developers to travel to Brussels to participate in the workshop.The focus of the workshop will be on bilateral discussions between FIRE and GENI projects working in the same domains. Different themes are being identified for this bilateral dialogue in order to achieve in-depth technical exchanges and to define possible collaborations. These themes will include, for example, sensors, clouds, service architectures, smart cities, social networking, security, and network infrastructure. Ideally, these bilateral discussions will move collaborative efforts forward by identifying bilateral teams that will plan and develop cross-Atlantic experiments that utilize both GENI and FIRE infrastructure capabilities. The workshop will have impact in a number of ways. By building on complementary strengths, the collaborations envisioned here will enable both communities to accelerate and expand the horizons of networking and future Internet research. The workshop and the collaborations that come out of it provide for specific research and education opportunities in an international context.
