LIVE DEMONSTRATION EVENT at the14TH GEC in BOSTON

全球网络创新环境（Global Environment for Network Innovations，简称GENI）是由美国国家科学基金会（NSF）支持的一套研究基础设施，目前正以原型形式迅速在美国各地出现。GENI旨在通过为未来互联网的“大规模”实验提供一套基础设施，将网络和分布式系统的实验研究以及新兴研究转化为非常大的社会技术系统。GENI项目办公室每年组织三次主要的GENI工程会议（GEC），在这些会议上，整个GENI社区开会审查当前状态，并决定GENI发展的后续步骤。这些GEC包括以社区为基础的工作组，领导GENI的设计和规划，并通过现场实验展示进展。麻省理工学院正在举办第十四届GENI工程会议。这个项目支持组织演示会议将在麻省理工学院校园举行。约400名顶尖研究人员和博士。来自美国不同机构的学生将聚集在麻省理工学院展示他们的想法和成果。校园场地有一个现有的10GB链接，除了麻省理工学院更标准的互联网服务外，还将提供对国家Lambda铁路（NLR）网络的访问。 每个演示将提供1G有线连接到GENI基础设施。 此外，由于麻省理工学院及其计算机科学和人工智能实验室（CSAIL）为所有嘉宾提供无线接入，因此演示和参与者将可以使用无线网络。 更广泛的影响：GEC演示会议为研究生提供了一个机会，在正式出版之前向GENI社区展示和解释他们的工作。它帮助新的研究生了解正在与GENI做什么，并通过为学生和教师提供一种方法，以发现他们的同龄人在其他机构可能是有价值的资源，鼓励跨大学合作。它还支持与新社区成员的外联，包括新兴的美国反犹太社区。

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. MIT is hosting the fourteenth edition of the GENI Engineering conference. This project supports organizing the demo session to be held on the MIT Campus. About 400 leading researchers and Ph.D. students from diverse US institutions will gather at MIT to showcase their ideas and results. The campus venue has an existing 10GB link which will provide access to the National Lambda Rail (NLR) network in addition to MIT's more standard Internet services. Each demo will be provided with 1G wired connection to the GENI infrastructure. Additionally, because MIT and its Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence Laboratory (CSAIL) provide wireless access to all guests, wireless will be available for demonstrations and participants. 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.
