JUNO 2016 PI Meeting

该项目支持主办将于2016年12月8日在华盛顿特区乔治华盛顿大学举行的最后一次日美网络机会（JUNO） PI会议。本次会议继续了美国和日本网络研究人员之间的研究合作，该合作由NSF/NeTS计划和日本国立信息通信技术研究所（NICT）共同资助。2013年，美国国家科学基金会发布了一份题为“网络技术和系统（net: JUNO）”、“日美网络机遇：“超越数万亿物体”的研发”的提案征集。这个“超越数万亿物体”的日美联合研究和开发项目解决了数万亿设备和信息物体在网络连接环境中出现的问题的关键子集，预计到2020年将出现这种情况。七个合作研究项目涉及网络设计和建模的新方法，支持对象移动性的网络管理和控制的新技术，以及具有适应新兴世界中对象之间通信所需的速度、容量和环境特征的灵活光网络。第一次项目PI会议于2014年6月在加州大学戴维斯分校举行，第二次项目PI会议于2015年10月在东京举行。最后一次PI会议将汇集来自美国和日本的PI，以及参与JUNO项目的一些美国学生。会议将为所有项目参与者提供机会，了解所有JUNO项目的进展情况。

This project supports hosting the final Japanese-US Network Opportunity (JUNO) PI meeting to be held at the George Washington University on Dec. 8, 2016, in Washington DC. This meeting continues a research collaboration between US and Japanese networking researchers jointly funded by the NSF/NeTS program and the Japanese National Institute of Information and Communications Technology (NICT). In 2013, NSF issued a solicitation for proposals titled Networking Technology and Systems (NeTS: JUNO), Japan-US Network Opportunity: R&D for "Beyond Trillions of Objects." This "Beyond Trillions of Objects" Japan-US joint research and development program has addressed a critical subset of the issues that arise when environments with trillions of device and information objects are network-connected, as is expected to be the case by the year 2020. Seven collaborative research projects have addressed novel approaches for network design and modeling, new technologies for network management and control in support of object mobility, and flexible optical networks with the speed, capacity and environmental characteristics needed to accommodate communications among objects in the emerging world. The first program PI meeting was held at the University of California, Davis, in June 2014, and the second PI meeting was held in Tokyo in October 2015. This final PI meeting will bring together the PIs from the US and Japan, as well a selection of US student participants in the JUNO projects. The meeting will provide the opportunity for all project participants to learn about the progress to date on all of the JUNO projects.
