South Dakota State University's (SDSU) strategic plan, Impact 2018, challenges segments of the university to be high performing; research and innovation was singled out as one such area that would take up that challenge. In order to achieve this level of performance, the plan specifies that information technology be the foundation on which this success is built. With this in mind, the Division of Technology and Security has targeted the construction of a Science DMZ to enhance current end-to-end science data transfer scenarios and position university researchers to take advantage of the next generation in network connectivity for cross-institutional collaboration. The Science DMZ project is designed according to the architecture and practices established by the Energy Sciences Network (ESNET) to enable fast end-to-end transfers of scientific data and optimize network components for high-performance scientific applications. Specific elements of the Science DMZ include support for virtual circuits, software defined networking, network testing and enhancements in high-speed data transfer processing. The need for these cyberinfrastructure improvements are driven by increased levels of scientific activity across campus research areas, namely big data users found within the Geographic Information Science Center of Excellence (GSCE), the Image Processing Lab, and several groups within the Biology and Plant Science departments involved with state-of-the-art genomics processing and applications. This effort promises to transform SDSU's infrastructure, providing a coordinated resource to systematically process, transfer and analyze large science data sets, resulting in enhanced collaborative opportunities for the research community.

南达科他州立大学(SDSU)的战略计划Impact 2018挑战了该大学的高绩效领域；研究和创新被选为将接受这一挑战的领域之一。为了达到这一业绩水平，该计划明确规定，信息技术是取得这一成功的基础。考虑到这一点，技术和安全司以建设科学非军事区为目标，以增强当前端到端的科学数据传输场景，并定位大学研究人员利用下一代网络连接进行跨机构合作。科学非军事区项目是根据能源科学网络(ESnet)建立的架构和实践设计的，旨在实现科学数据的快速端到端传输，并为高性能的科学应用优化网络组件。科学非军事区的具体内容包括支持虚拟电路、软件定义的网络、网络测试和高速数据传输处理的增强。对这些网络基础设施改进的需求是由于校园研究领域的科学活动水平的增加，即地理信息科学卓越中心(GSCE)、图像处理实验室以及生物学和植物科学系中参与最先进基因组学处理和应用的几个小组中的大数据用户。这一努力承诺改变SDSU的基础设施，提供协调一致的资源来系统地处理、传输和分析大型科学数据集，从而为研究界带来更多的合作机会。
