LTER Wide Area Networking Conference

伊利诺伊大学的国家超级计算应用中心（NCSA）提议举办一次广域网会议，以促进对长期生态研究（LTER）站点之间联网的好处的理解。本次研讨会将为科研人员熟悉网络的核心服务，即文件传输、远程登录和电子邮件提供范本。它将评估网络作为协作科学冒险的基础设施的使用。讲座和实验将由具有网络和超级计算经验的专业人士进行。主题将包括：一般网络和远程计算；ICP/IP协议的介绍，互联网上可用的资源；以及对计算科学和超级计算的介绍。将进行评估，以评估未来讲习班的需要和应采取的形式

The National Center for Supercomputing Applications (NCSA) of the University of Illinois proposes to host a Wide Area Networking Conference in order ot promote an understanding of the benefits of networking among Long Term Ecological Research (LTER) sites. This workshop will serve as model for familiarizing scientific researchers with core services of networking, i. e., file transfer, remote log in, and electronic mail. It will assess the use of networking as infrastructure for collaborative scientific ventures. Lectures and laboratory sessions will be given by professionals with networking and supercomputing experience. Topics will include: General networking and remote computing; introduction to ICP/IP protocols, resorces available on the internet; and an introduction to computational science and supercomputing. An evaluation will be taken in order to assess the need for future workshops and the form they should take.***//
