MDREN, the Maryland Research and Education Network, an organization under the University System of Maryland, provides advanced network services to 40+ education, research, and public service institutions throughout the State of Maryland and connections to regional and national resources.High-speed networking infrastructure is vital to researchers and STEM educators in our community. Smaller/under resourced/rural institutions like Frostburg State University (FSU), Salisbury University (SU), the four research labs that are part of University of Maryland Center for Environmental Sciences (UMCES), the Maryland Psychiatric Research Center (MPRC) as part of University of Maryland School of Medicine (UMSOM), and HBCUs like University of Maryland Eastern Shore (UMES) and Morgan State University have serious limitations in accessing and transferring huge datasets amongst themselves and collaborators at NOAA, NASA, NIH, USGS, and others. This proposal significantly increases network bandwidth for 6 institutions including research centers and labs by 10x and adds a Science DMZ for data transfers from other sites to enable the full potential of these institutions. These upgrades allow researchers at each institution to reliably connect to supercomputers and big data repositories, increase computational capabilities, and increase inter-institution collaboration. MDREN will a special path from the science DMZ machine to each lab that will facilitate high speed transfer. This would be significantly faster than doing transfers through campus firewalls.This proposal helps rural or under-resourced institutions and HBCUs better collaborate with peer institutions in the greater Maryland region, collaborators around the world, and key science organizations such as NASA, NIH, and NOAA.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.

马里兰州的马里兰州研究与教育网络MDREN是马里兰州大学系统下的一个组织，为整个马里兰州的40多个教育，研究和公共服务机构提供高级网络服务以及与地区和国家资源的联系。高速网络基础设施对我们社区的研究人员和STEM教育工作者至关重要。较小/资源不足的/农村机构，例如弗罗斯特堡州立大学（FSU），索尔兹伯里大学（SU），这是马里兰州环境科学中心（UMCE）的四个研究实验室（Maryland Psychiatric Research Center（MPRC），马里兰州大学医学院（UMMARY LIMISTIVEL）和HBCUS SHORE（UUMANE INDERSERS）的一部分（MPRC）并在NOAA，NASA，NIH，USGS等之间将大量数据集和合作者之间的转移。该提案可大大增加6个机构的网络带宽，包括研究中心和实验室，并增加了从其他站点传输数据传输的科学DMZ，以使这些机构的全部潜力。这些升级使每个机构的研究人员能够可靠地连接到超级计算机和大数据存储库，提高计算能力并增加机构间的协作。 Mdren将采用从科学DMZ机器到每个实验室的特殊路径，这将有助于高速传输。这将比通过校园防火墙进行转移的速度要快得多。该提案可以帮助农村或资源不足的机构和HBCU与大马里兰州地区的同行机构，世界各地的合作组织以及主要的科学组织以及NASA，NIH和NOAA等诸如NOAA.THIS Infortional Internution deem and deem and deem and deem and and Interial and and noaa奖，与HBCUS更好地与众多的科学组织进行了合作，并反映了NOAA。更广泛的影响审查标准。
