CC* Regional: Campus Research & Education Multiple Organization Regional OneOklahoma Friction Free Network (CaRE-MORe-OFFN)

该奖项由《2021年美国救援计划法案》(公共法律117-2)提供全部或部分资金。该项目旨在连接两所俄克拉荷马州大学，并将另外两所大学的OneOklahoma无摩擦网络(OFFN)连接到现有的区域OneOklahoma无摩擦网络，即OneNet的独立超高速地区性科学DMZ。莫斯科民族学院(CMN)和默里州立学院(MSC)将成为新的连接，俄克拉荷马州立大学理工学院(OSUIT)和罗杰斯州立大学(RSU)将获得升级的连接。该项目还将让这四个机构参与推动工作量。校园研究与教育多组织地区俄克拉荷马州自由摩擦网络(CARE-More-OFFN)将支持网络安全、远程教育、自然资源和农业领域的研究和教育驱动因素。获得增强的网络基础设施资源将为教职员工和学生创造新的和多样化的研究机会提供基础。CARE-More-OFFN有可能通过接触领先的研究人员和网络基础设施从业人员来促进更广泛的合作途径，从而加强国家网络伙伴关系。因此，多样化的美国原住民和第一代学生将能够访问这些网络基础设施资源，增加通往学术内容的门户，这些门户将促进他们发展21世纪劳动力技能的能力，使他们的社区受益。CaRE-More-OFFN通过实施Science DMZ、数据传输节点和网络性能监控功能来支持科学应用驱动程序，将这些功能与俄克拉荷马州其他机构的类似功能集成在一起，将OneOklahoma Friction Free Network扩展到资源不足的校园。该项目还将两个园区的带宽和OFFN连接升级到10Gbps。CARE-More-OFFN通过让教职员工和学生参与更大的OneOklahoma网络基础设施计划(OneOCII)，为每个校区的技术人员提供提高技能的机会，并通过共享计算工具、科学设备和教育材料促进跨校区协作。OFFN由俄克拉荷马州的研究和教育网络OneNet管理，俄克拉荷马大学提供科学领导。该项目有可能改善一个新的四个资源不足的机构获得高速网络的机会。该项目由高级网络基础设施办公室(OAC)和既定的激励竞争研究计划(EPSCoR)共同努力资助。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。

This award is funded in whole or in part under the American Rescue Plan Act of 2021 (Public Law 117-2).This project aims to connect two Oklahoma universities and to upgrade the OneOklahoma Friction Free Network (OFFN) connections of two other universities (all at 10 Gbps) to the existing Regional OneOklahoma Friction Free Network, OneNet’s separate ultra-high-speed regional Science DMZ. The College of the Muscogee Nation (CMN) and Murray State College (MSC) will be the new connections and Oklahoma State University Institute of Technology (OSUIT) and Rogers State University (RSU) will obtain upgraded connections. The project will also engage the four institutions to drive workloads. The Campus Research & Education Multiple Organization Regional OneOklahoma Friction Free Network (CaRE-MORe-OFFN) will support research and education drivers in cybersecurity, distance learning, natural resources and agriculture. Access to enhanced cyberinfrastructure resources will provide a foundation to build new and diverse research opportunities for faculty and students. CaRE-MORe-OFFN has the potential to strengthen state network partnerships by fostering broader collaboration pathways through exposure to leading researchers and cyberinfrastructure practitioners. As a result, a diverse population of Native American and first-generation students will have access to these cyberinfrastructure resources, increasing gateways to academic content that will facilitate their abilities to develop 21st century workforce skills that benefit their communities.CaRE-MORe-OFFN extends the OneOklahoma Friction Free Network to under-resourced campuses by implementing Science DMZs, Data Transfer Nodes, and network performance monitoring capabilities in support of science application drivers, integrating these capabilities with similar capabilities at other institutions across Oklahoma. The project also upgrades bandwidth and OFFN connectivity for two campuses to 10Gbps. CaRE-MORe-OFFN offers technical personnel at each campus the opportunity to improve skill sets and facilitates cross-campus collaborations through shared uses of computing tools, scientific equipment, and educational materials by engaging faculty and students in the larger OneOklahoma CyberInfrastructure Initiative (OneOCII). OFFN is managed by OneNet, Oklahoma’s research and education network, and scientific leadership is provided by the University of Oklahoma. The project has potential to improve access to high-speed networking for a new group of four under-resourced institutions. This project is funded through the collaborative efforts of the Office of Advanced Cyberinfrastructure (OAC) and the Established Program to Stimulate Competitive Research (EPSCoR).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.
