项目摘要

Moore’s Law has ushered in a scientific data revolution. This is particularly acute in the life sciences, where the devices used to collect data and the theoretical tools used to generate models have benefited tremendously from the advent of inexpensive digital sensors and general-purpose graphics processing units, which have led to an explosive increase in the volume of high-quality data. Sharing large amounts of this data for analysis by other researchers will result in tremendous benefits to the scientific community.This project creates a Science DMZ at Michigan State University, which will facilitate MSU researchers’ ability to share huge volumes of data with the external research community at very high bandwidth. The project supports the networking hardware and software necessary to implement up to 100Gbps network connections used for sharing data already stored at MSU’s High Performance Computing System and on the NSF-funded MI-OSIRIS file system. The project uses data provided by four research groups on campus as a testbed, making cryo-electron microscopy images, hyperspectral imaging of crops using drones, three-dimensional volumetric images of plants generated via X-ray computed tomography, and a databank of biomolecular simulation data available to other researchers and the public. This project enhances the impact of MSU scientists and leverages prior NSF scientific and cyberinfrastructure investments. In addition, it involves the participation of students in the deployment and usage of the science DMZ.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.

摩尔定律引发了一场科学数据革命。这在生命科学中尤为严重，用于收集数据的设备和用于生成模型的理论工具极大地受益于廉价数字传感器和通用图形处理单元的出现，从而导致高质量数据量的爆炸性增长。共享大量数据供其他研究人员分析将为科学界带来巨大利益。该项目在密歇根州立大学创建了一个科学 DMZ，这将促进密歇根州立大学研究人员以非常高的带宽与外部研究界共享大量数据的能力。该项目支持实现高达 100Gbps 网络连接所需的网络硬件和软件，用于共享已存储在 MSU 高性能计算系统和 NSF 资助的 MI-OSIRIS 文件系统上的数据。该项目使用校园内四个研究小组提供的数据作为试验台，制作冷冻电子显微镜图像、使用无人机对农作物进行高光谱成像、通过 X 射线计算机断层扫描生成的植物三维体积图像以及可供其他研究人员和公众使用的生物分子模拟数据数据库。该项目增强了密歇根州立大学科学家的影响力，并利用了美国国家科学基金会之前的科学和网络基础设施投资。此外，它还涉及学生参与科学 DMZ 的部署和使用。该奖项反映了 NSF 的法定使命，并通过使用基金会的智力价值和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估，被认为值得支持。
