GENI Engineering Conference

该项目支持主办为期三天的第19届GENI工程会议（GEC），包括组织和主办演示会议，将于2014年3月17日至19日在佐治亚州亚特兰大的格鲁吉亚理工学院举行。 会议和示范会议将在大学或大学拥有的会议设施举行，以尽量减少成本。 GEC 19的活动规划和后勤支持将由GaTech的一个团队协调。该机构在地方、国家和国际各级的会议规划和支持方面拥有丰富的经验。全球网络创新环境（GENI）是一种虚拟工具，在美国各地以原型形式迅速出现。GENI旨在通过为未来互联网的“大规模”实验提供一套基础设施，将网络和分布式系统的实验研究以及新兴研究转化为非常大的社会技术系统。 每年有三次GEC，在此期间，整个GENI社区开会审查当前状态，并决定GENI发展的后续步骤。GEC包括以社区为基础的工作组，领导GENI的设计和规划，并通过现场实验展示进展。 约有250至300名顶尖研究人员和博士。来自美国不同机构的学生将聚集在亚特兰大，展示他们的想法和成果。 在演示会议中，将提供超过35个现场演示，并提供与GENI基础设施的有线连接。 演示晚会将在会议酒店对面的技术广场研究大楼一楼活动空间举行，并将提供与Internet 2、NLR和SoX区域网络的高速连接。 每个GEC演示项目将颁发临时校园范围的无线证书，将授予访问校园无线基础设施和商品互联网的演示晚上的持续时间。 GEC会议和演示会议为研究生提供了一个机会，在正式出版之前向GENI社区展示和解释他们的工作。 这是帮助新的研究生了解正在做什么与GENI和谁在他们的同龄人在其他机构可能是宝贵的资源的关键部分。 它还支持与新社区成员的外联，包括新兴的美国反犹太社区。 GENI已被用作研究工具，该项目支持该工具的继续开发和社区发展。

This project supports hosting the three day 19th edition of the GENI Engineering conference (GEC), including organizing and hosting the demo session, to be held Mar 17 - 19, 2014 at the Georgia Institute of Technology in Atlanta, GA. Both the conference and the demonstration session will be held at the University or in university owned conference facilities in order to minimize costs. Event planning and logistical support for GEC 19 will be coordinated by a team from GaTech?s Institute for People and Technology which has extensive experience in conference planning and support at the local, national, and international levels. The Global Environment for Network Innovations (GENI) is a virtual instrument that is rapidly emerging in prototype form across the United States. GENI aims to transform experimental research in networking and distributed systems, as well as emerging research into very large socio-technical systems, by providing a suite of infrastructure for 'at scale' experiments in future internets. There are three GECs per year, in which the entire GENI community meets to review current status, and to decide on subsequent steps in GENI's evolution. The GECs include community-based working groups leading GENI's design and planning, and demonstrating progress with live experiments. About 250 to 300 leading researchers and Ph.D. students from diverse US institutions will gather in Atlanta to showcase their ideas and results. In the demo session over 35 live demos will be provided with a wired connection to the GENI infrastructure. The demo evening will be held in the first floor event space of the Technology Square Research Building located immediately across the street from the conference hotel and will be provided with high-speed connectivity to Internet2, the NLR, and the SoX regional network. Each GEC demo project will be issued with temporary campus-wide wireless credentials that will grant access to the campus wireless infrastructure and commodity Internet for the duration of the demo evening. The GEC meeting and demo sessions provide graduate students with both an opportunity to demonstrate and explain their work to the GENI community prior to formal publication. It is a key part of helping new graduate students understand what is being done with GENI and who amongst their peers at other institutions might be valuable resources. It also supports outreach to new community members, including the emerging US Ignite community. GENI is already being used as an instrument for research, this project supports the continued development and community development of that instrument.
