EAGER: TIGER - Tight Integration of Grid Enabled Researchers

集成网格支持研究人员（TIGER） TIGER项目的目的是实现和评估一个“校园桥”模型，该模型解决了各种规模的校园研究人员对网络基础设施（CI）支持日益增长的需求，这些校园需要的资源可能不是千万亿级规模，但超过了大多数机构可以支持的基础设施。该项目将支持区域访问HPC/HTC设施、计算和可视化专业知识，并利用每个参与机构的专业知识。区域使用的计算节点已经通过先前的EPSCoR和DoE奖励购买。这两家HBCU合作伙伴将通过先前授予的ESPCoR RII 2和ESPCoR CI R2连接到区域R&amp；E网络。一项关键任务是提供专家实现和集成服务，并增加拥有这些技能的工作人员的规模。该项目将把校园体验扩展到区域体验，资助克莱姆森大学的专业知识和综合和hbcu的教师的合作，并将扩大和发展网络知识发现社区。一个成功的结果可能具有变革性，因为它提供了一种新的模式，可以在区域范围内实现和发展一个广泛而多样化的网络研究社区，利用区域CI专业知识中心的优势。

Integration of Grid Enabled Researchers (TIGER) The intent of the TIGER project is to implement and evaluate a "campus bridge" model that addresses the growing need for Cyber-Infrastructure (CI) support for researchers at campuses of every size requiring resources that may not be of petascale size, but that outstrip the infrastructure that can be supported at most institutions. The project will support regional access to HPC/HTC facilities, computational and visualization expertise as well as leveraging of expertise from each participating institution. Computational nodes for regional use have already been purchased via prior EPSCoR and DoE awards. The two HBCU partners will be connected to the regional R&E network via previously awarded ESPCoR RII 2 and ESPCoR CI R2 awards. A key task is to provide expert implementation and integration services and also increase the size of the workforce having this skill sets. The project will extend the campus experience to a regional one, funding a collaboration of Clemson expertise and faculty at comprehensives and HBCUs and will expand and grow cyber-enabled knowledge discovery communities. A successful outcome is potentially transformative in providing a new model shown to enable and grow a broad and diverse cyber-enabled research community at a regional scale, leveraging strengths at a regional center of CI expertise.
