The Sixteenth GENI Engineering Conference

该项目支持主办为期三天的第16届GENI工程会议，包括组织和主持将在犹他大学校园举行的演示会议。全球网络创新环境（GENI）是一种虚拟仪器，在美国以原型形式迅速出现。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社区开会审查当前的状态，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，负责GENI的设计和规划，并通过现场实验展示进展。来自美国不同机构的约250名顶尖研究人员和博士生将齐聚盐湖城，展示他们的想法和成果。在演示环节中，将为每个演示提供与GENI基础设施的有线连接。此外，无线连接将为演示和参与者提供。GEC 16会议将在犹他大学校园举行，由犹他大学经验丰富的活动协调员负责组织监督。更广泛的影响：GEC会议和演示会议为研究生提供了一个机会，在正式发表之前向GENI社区展示和解释他们的工作。这是帮助新研究生了解GENI正在做什么以及他们在其他机构的同龄人中谁可能是有价值的资源的关键部分。它还支持拓展新社区成员，包括新兴的美国点燃社区。基因i已经被用作研究工具。本项目支持该研究仪器的开发和使用。

This project supports hosting the three day sixteenth edition of the GENI Engineering conference, including organizing and hosting the demo session, to be held on the University of Utah campus. The Global Environment for Network Innovations (GENI) is a virtual instrument 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 (GECs) 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. About 250 leading researchers and Ph.D. students from diverse US institutions will gather in Salt Lake City to showcase their ideas and results. In the demo session each demo will be provided with a wired connection to the GENI infrastructure. Additionally, wireless connectivity will be available for demonstrations and participants. The GEC 16 conference will be held on the University of Utah campus, with organizational oversight by an experienced University of Utah event coordinator. Broader Impact: The GEC meeting and Demo sessions provide graduate students with both an opportunity to demonstrate and explain their work to the GENI community prior to formal publication. It is a key part of helping new graduate students understand what is being done with GENI and 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. GENI is already being used as an instrument for research. This project supports the development and use of the research instrument.
