Participant Support and organization of the technical demonstrations for the NSF-GENI GEC13th at UCLA.

全球网络创新环境“GENI”是由美国国家科学基金会支持的一套研究基础设施，正以原型形式在全美迅速出现。GENI的目标是将网络和分布式系统的实验研究以及新兴研究转变为超大型社会技术系统的研究，方法是为未来互联网的“大规模”实验提供一套基础设施。GENI项目办公室每年组织三次主要的GENI工程会议(GEC)，整个GENI社区在会上开会审查当前状况，并决定GENI演变的后续步骤。这些GEC包括基于社区的工作组，领导GENI的设计和规划，并通过现场实验展示进展。加州大学洛杉矶分校将主办第13届GENI工程会议。该项目支持组织在加州大学洛杉矶分校校园举行的演示会。来自美国不同机构的约400名顶尖研究人员和博士生将聚集在加州大学洛杉矶分校，展示他们的想法和结果。园区技术服务将适合场地，以支持有线和无线的高速网络实验。特别是，将启用10 Gb链路，并为每个演示提供1G有线连接。会场还将连接国家朗姆达铁路(NLR)和Internet2可互操作的点播网络(ION)网络基础设施，从而使研究人员和从业人员能够访问全国所有的GENI网站。GEC第13届会议的每一位参与者将获得临时校园范围的无线证书，这些证书将允许在活动期间访问校园无线基础设施和商品互联网。此外，4G无线连接将通过GENI-WiMax基础设施提供。广泛的影响：GEC演示课程为研究生提供了在正式出版之前向GENI社区演示和解释他们的工作的机会。它帮助应届研究生了解GENI正在做什么，并通过为学生和教职员工提供一种方法来发现他们在其他机构的同龄人中谁可能是有价值的资源，从而鼓励跨大学合作。它还支持接触新的社区成员，包括新兴的美国Ignite社区。

The Global Environment for Network Innovations 'GENI' is a suite of research infrastructure supported by the NSF that is rapidly emerging in prototype form across the United States. GENI aims to transform experimental research in networking and distributed systems, as well as emerging research into very large socio-technical systems, by providing a suite of infrastructure for 'at scale' experiments in future internets.The GENI Project Office organizes three major GENI Engineering conferences (GEC) per year, in which the entire GENI community meets to review current status, and to decide on subsequent steps in GENI's evolution. These GECs include community-based working groups leading GENI's design and planning, and demonstrating progress with live experiments.UCLA is hosting the thirteenth edition of the GENI Engineering conference. This project supports organizing the demo session to be held on the UCLA Campus. About 400 leading researchers and Ph.D. students from diverse US institutions will gather at UCLA to showcase their ideas and results. The Campus Technology Services will fit the venue to support high speed networking experiments both wired and wireless. In particular, a 10GB link will be enabled and each demo will be provided with 1G wired connection. The venue will be also connected to the National Lambda Rail (NLR) and Internet2 Interoperable On-demand Network (ION) network infrastructures thus enabling researchers and practitioners to access all the GENI sites nationwide. Each GEC 13th participant will be issued temporary campus-wide wireless credentials that will grant access to the campus wireless infrastructure and commodity Internet for the duration of the event. Furthermore, 4G wireless connectivity will be made available through the GENI-WiMax infrastructure.Broader Impact: The GEC Demo sessions provide graduate students with both an opportunity to demonstrate and explain their work to the GENI community prior to formal publication. It helps new graduate students understand what is being done with GENI and encourages cross-university cooperation by providing a method for students and faculty to discover who amongst their peers at other institutions might be valuable resources. It also supports outreach to new community members, including the emerging US Ignite community.
