CICNet, the One-Rutgers Next Generation Data Driven Research Network, supports the need of an increasingly diverse research community to access distributed data, cloud environments, advanced computing resources and other research instruments, including Sequencers, MRIs, Sensor Arrays, Electron Microscopes, and Radio Telescopes. The overarching goal of this project is to improve the productivity of the research community by removing bottlenecks associated with the movement of data not only between campuses, but with the national cyberinfrastructure ecosystem, including XSEDE, Open Science Grid, Pacific Research Platform, CloudLab, and GENI. With CICNet, Rutgers attempts to create a transformative research environment where central IT and the research community are partners and collaborators.CICNet evolves under this project to a 40Gbps research and education campus network across Rutgers, with a 100Gbps ScienceDMZ and 100Gbps connectivity to Internet2. CICNet is a research network that is also available as a research project. The partnership between central IT with the research community, including GENI/OpenFlow/SDN researchers, is designed as a model for integrating new network technologies into an existing framework, creating a path for future use both at Rutgers and beyond. The integration of OpenFlow with high performance computing, distributed across multiple campuses (Camden, Newark, and New Brunswick/Piscataway) is an innovative extension that Rutgers does not have in place today. Outreach and training led by the IT staff deploying CICNet and the Rutgers Wireless Research Group, WINLAB, extends the current relationship between both IT and the research and education communities. The completed network upgrade is designed to support significant new scientific research and education opportunities for multiple departments, colleges, and research groups across all Rutgers campuses that require access to remote instruments and/or transfer large datasets.

CICNet，即One-Rutgers下一代数据驱动研究网络，支持日益多样化的研究社区访问分布式数据、云环境、先进计算资源和其他研究仪器的需求，包括测序仪、核磁共振成像、传感器阵列、电子显微镜和射电望远镜。该项目的总体目标是通过消除与校园之间以及与国家网络基础设施生态系统（包括XSEDE、开放科学网格、太平洋研究平台、CloudLab和GENI）之间数据移动相关的瓶颈，提高研究界的生产力。通过CICNet，罗格斯大学试图创造一个变革性的研究环境，在这个环境中，中心IT和研究社区是合作伙伴和合作者。在该项目下，CICNet将发展成为横跨罗格斯大学的40Gbps研究和教育校园网络，拥有100Gbps的ScienceDMZ和100Gbps的互联网2连接。CICNet是一个研究网络，也是一个研究项目。中央IT与研究界（包括GENI/OpenFlow/SDN研究人员）之间的合作关系被设计为将新网络技术集成到现有框架中的模型，为罗格斯大学和其他地方的未来使用创造了一条道路。OpenFlow与高性能计算的集成，分布在多个校区（卡姆登、纽瓦克和新不伦瑞克/皮斯卡塔韦），是罗格斯大学目前还没有的创新扩展。由部署CICNet的IT人员和罗格斯无线研究小组（WINLAB）领导的外展和培训，扩展了IT与研究和教育社区之间的当前关系。完成的网络升级旨在为所有罗格斯大学校园内需要访问远程仪器和/或传输大型数据集的多个部门、学院和研究小组提供重要的新的科学研究和教育机会。
