MRI: Acquisition of a Cloud Computing Infrastructure for Research and Education

提案编号：13- 38102 PI（s）：Yu，Shucheng Chiang，Chia-Chu; Xie，Mengjun; Yoshigoe，Kenji机构：阿肯色大学-小石城分校标题： MRI/采集：面向研究和教育的云计算基础设施 项目建议：该项目，收购私有云仪器，旨在开展六个研究项目，涵盖社交网络，安全云数据系统，密码学，生物医学计算和数据流分析领域。该仪器将支持以下项目：-分析大规模社交网络中的Sybil攻击，-云存储系统的安全数据访问控制，-命名数据网络中的缓存污染攻击研究，-开发基于云的人脑连接组图论分析框架，-全同态加密的并行处理，以及-云上的性能实时流分析。（U AR-小石城（UALR），U AR-松树海崖（UAPB），和U中央AR（UAC）），将是第一个在该州致力于研究和教学。仪器丰富了大学和整个国家的研究和教育活动。因此，可以开发和实施新的课程。此外，云基础设施为少数民族学生提供了独特的机会，他们将能够访问尖端的高性能无处不在的计算资源。计算基础设施通过其安装、操作和维护过程为学生创造了许多教育和培训机会。大学的暑期本科创业与研究计划（SUPER）和ACM俱乐部将提供机构内外的培训。此外，将建立一个关于云计算的本科夏季研究计划，以扩大整个EPSCoR管辖范围的机会。

Proposal #: 13-38102PI(s): Yu, Shucheng Chiang, Chia-Chu; Xie, Mengjun; Yoshigoe, KenjiInstitution: University of Arkansas-Little RockTitle: MRI/Acq.: Cloud Computing Infrastructure for Research and Education Project Proposed:This project, acquiring private cloud instrumentation, aims to conduct six research projects spanning areas of social networks, secure cloud data system, cryptography, biomedical computing, and data stream analysis. The instrumentation will enable the following projects:- Analysis of Sybil Attacks in Large-Scale Social Networks,- Secure Data Access Control for Cloud Storage Systems,- Study of Cache Pollution Attacks in Named-Data Networking,- Development of a Cloud-Based Graph Theoretical Analysis Framework for Human Brain Connectomes,- Parallel Processing of Fully Homomorphic Encryption, and- Performance Real-Time Stream Analysis on the Cloud.This private cloud, serving three universities (U AR-Little Rock (UALR), U AR-Pine Bluff (UAPB), and U Central AR (UAC)), will be the first in the state dedicated to research and teaching.Broader Impacts: The instrumentation enriches the research and educational activities within the universities and overall state. Hence, new courses can be developed and implemented. Moreover, the cloud infrastructure provides unique opportunities for minority students that will then have access to cutting-edge high-performance ubiquitous computing resources. The computing infrastructure creates many education and training opportunities for the students through the process of its installation, operation, and maintenance. A Summer Undergraduate Program of Entrepreneurship and Research (SUPER) program and the ACM club at the university will offer training within and beyond the institution. Also, an undergraduate summer research program on cloud computing will be established to expand the opportunities throughout this EPSCoR jurisdiction.
