The CC-NIE Networking Infrastructure: Perimeter Network to Expedite the Transmission of Science (PR-NETS) project seeks to accelerate adoption of advanced networking at the University of Puerto Rico-Rio Piedras (UPR-RP) through targeted investment in networking equipment and establishment of a firewall-less network, or Science DMZ. In most universities network security policies are developed to ensure high quality common Internet services to the general Campus community. These policies, however, may interfere with the best practices for the management of large datasets, constant transmission of remote data, and configurations of distributed systems. In addition to academic and administrative information, university networks usually also handle scientific research data, which today entails access to large datasets. University network policies require firewalls and other security measures that slow the transmission process. The PR-NETS provides the UPR-RP's capacity to transfer large amounts of data in an efficient manner without compromising cyber security. The Science DMZ consists of seven points of access (PoAs) at strategic locations on Campus and two PoAs located just off Campus to serve the needs of UPR-RP scientists who conduct data intensive research. PR-NETS is designed to allow the addition of more PoAs, and peering with Science DMZ from other institutions.The project amplifies research in areas critical to national security and increased economic competitiveness, such as nanotechnology, gene sequencing, and HIV prevention intervention. Furthermore, the PR-NETS enhances undergraduate and graduate science education at the UPR-RP, whose student population is 98% Hispanic, by enabling reliable multicast videoconference access and data intensive research opportunities.

CC-NIE网络基础设施：加速科学传播的周界网络（PR-NETS）项目旨在通过对网络设备的目标投资和建立无防火墙网络或科学非军事区（Science DMZ）来加速波多黎各-里奥彼德拉斯大学（UPR-RP）先进网络的采用。大多数大学都制定了网络安全政策，以确保向一般校园社区提供高质量的公共互联网服务。然而，这些策略可能会干扰管理大型数据集、远程数据的持续传输和分布式系统配置的最佳实践。除了学术和行政信息，大学网络通常也处理科学研究数据，这需要访问大型数据集。大学的网络政策要求防火墙和其他安全措施来减缓传输过程。PR-NETS提供了UPR-RP在不影响网络安全的情况下以有效方式传输大量数据的能力。科学非军事区由七个位于校园战略位置的接入点（poa）和两个位于校园外的poa组成，以满足进行数据密集型研究的UPR-RP科学家的需求。PR-NETS旨在允许添加更多poa，并与来自其他机构的Science DMZ对等。该项目扩大了对国家安全和提高经济竞争力至关重要的领域的研究，例如纳米技术、基因测序和艾滋病预防干预。此外，PR-NETS通过提供可靠的多播视频会议接入和数据密集型研究机会，加强了ubr - rp的本科生和研究生科学教育，ubr - rp的学生人口中有98%是西班牙裔。
