The CC* Networking Infrastructure project at the University of Delaware (UD) is constructing a high-bandwidth, low-latency Internet2 connection to support the university's research and education initiatives by fulfilling the need for efficient and timely data transfer to collaborating institutions, national high-performance computing resources, and service for the global research community. This project enables the sharing of large and time-sensitive data sets without impediment. It provides the necessary infrastructure to support major initiatives for the Delaware Biotechnology Institute, department of Chemistry & Biochemistry, department of Mechanical Engineering, Center for Bioinformatics and Computational Biology, Bartol Research Institute, department of Chemical & Biomolecular Engineering, Entomology and Wildlife Ecology, and many more data intensive programs across the university. This is a transformational grant which enables DNA sequence, energy flux, molecule property, molecular dynamics trajectory, protein, solid particle, visualization, weather, and other data to be transferred between HPC clusters and scientists for immediate use with shorter delays between successive simulations and resulting in faster overall research schedule.This project provides two enhancements to the University of Delaware network infrastructure: (1) creation of a 100Gbps capable network for connectivity to the Internet2 network community, and (2) creation of a ScienceDMZ to enable researchers to take full advantage of the new high-bandwidth capabilities.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.

特拉华大学(UD)的CC*网络基础设施项目正在构建一个高带宽、低延迟的Internet2连接，通过满足向合作机构、国家高性能计算资源和全球研究界服务高效和及时地传输数据的需求，支持大学的研究和教育活动。该项目能够畅通无阻地共享大型和对时间敏感的数据集。它为特拉华州生物技术研究所、化学与生物化学系、机械工程系、生物信息学与计算生物学中心、巴托尔研究所、化学与生物分子工程系、昆虫学与野生动物生态学系以及整个大学的更多数据密集型项目提供必要的基础设施。这是一项变革性的拨款，它使DNA序列、能量通量、分子性质、分子动力学轨迹、蛋白质、固体粒子、可视化、天气和其他数据能够在HPC集群和科学家之间传输，以便立即使用，连续模拟之间的延迟更短，并导致更快的整体研究时间表。该项目为特拉华大学的网络基础设施提供了两个增强：(1)创建一个能够连接到Internet2网络社区的100Gbps网络，以及(2)创建科学非军事区，以使研究人员能够充分利用新的高带宽能力。该奖项反映了NSF的法定使命，并通过使用基金会的智力优势和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估，被认为值得支持。
