CC*DNI Campus Design: Developing a Scientific Research Network to Support Data-Driven Research at the University of Arkansas at Pine Bluff

阿肯色州松树海崖大学（UAPB）在过去的几年里已经开发了创新和富有成效的研究小组，探索生物信息学，纳米科学，安全分析和生物技术的主题。UAPB所有研究小组和项目继续面临的一个挑战是校园网络支持研究实验室，国家和全球研究合作伙伴之间的大型科学数据移动的能力有限。该项目旨在增强阿肯色州派恩海崖大学的校园网络基础设施，以两种交织的方式为研究活动提供动态网络服务，首先，它将增强现有的大规模研究活动，以利用新的网络功能。特别是通过将校园内的研究网络流量和合作伙伴之间的研究网络流量分离到一个专门的本地专用研究网络（DRN），这将使教师，博士后研究人员，拥有适当知识的学生能够在他们的研究活动中取得巨大而直接的进步。其次，专门的研究网络将为来自历史上黑人/学院大学（HBCU）的新一代研究人员和多数少数民族学生提供教育和培训基地，在科学，技术，工程和数学（STEM）的前沿研究学科中。

The University of Arkansas at Pine Bluff (UAPB) over the last several years has developed innovative and productive research groups exploring topics in bioinformatics, nanosciences, security analytics and biotechnology. One challenge that continues to confront all research groups and projects at UAPB is that of the limited ability of the campus network to support large science data movement between research laboratories, national and global research partners. This project is designed to enhance the University of Arkansas at Pine Bluff's campus network infrastructure to enabled dynamic network services for research activities in two interwoven ways, first it will enhance existing large-scale research activities to take advantage of new network capabilities. In particular by separating research network traffic on the campus, and among partners onto a specialized local dedicated research network (DRN), this will enable faculty, postdoctoral researchers, students who have appropriate knowledge to make great and immediate strides in their research activities. Secondly, the dedicated research network will serve to provide an education and training ground for a new generation of researchers and majority minority student population from a Historically Black/College University (HBCU), in cutting-edge research disciplines within Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM).
