Broadening Participation in Teaching and Research in GENI: A Regional Workshop in March 2016

该项目支持于2016年3月7日在亚利桑那州滕佩的亚利桑那州立大学举办全球网络创新环境（GENI）区域研讨会（GRW）。这个GRW的目的是继续扩大GENI用户社区，向美国西南部地理区域的新教育工作者和研究人员介绍GENI。2016年计划总共有四个GRW，大约每三个月举行一次（即，3月（本次研讨会）、6月、9月和12月），分布在美国各地。拟议的GRW将促进研究创新（例如，网络科学、安全、服务和应用）和教育（例如，使用GENI基础设施开发新的课程作业和项目）。讲习班将使与会者能够参与一系列活动，以提高他们对以下方面的了解和专门知识：1）在本科生和研究生教育中使用GENI的可用资源。2）在实验研究中使用GENI基础设施，包括有线、无线、云计算、软件定义网络和网络功能虚拟化方面的最新发展。3）通过各种“动手”教程，在美国各地获得网络和计算资源。研讨会作为交流思想的场所，讨论了在研究和课堂环境中进行实验的挑战，并展示了GENI技术实验。

This project supports hosting a Global Environment for Network innovations (GENI) Regional Workshop (GRW) on March 7, 2016 at Arizona State University in Tempe, Arizona. The intent of this GRW is to continue to broaden the GENI user community, introducing new educators and researchers in the southwestern US geographic region to GENI. Four GRWs in total are being planned in 2016, one held about every three months (i.e., March (this workshop), June, September, and December), scattered geographically across the U.S.The proposed GRW will promote innovations in research (e.g., network science, security, services, and applications) and education (e.g., the development of new coursework assignments and projects using the GENI infrastructure). The workshop will enable participants to engage in a range of activities designed to improve their understanding of and expertise in:1) Resources available for utilizing GENI in undergraduate and graduate education.2) Utilizing the GENI infrastructure in experimental research, including state-of-the-art developments in wired, wireless, cloud computing, software defined networking, and network function virtualization.3) Working through a variety of "hands on" tutorials, obtaining network and compute resources at locations around the United States.The workshop serves as a venue for the exchange of ideas, a discussion of challenges of experimentation in research and classroom settings, and a showcase for technology experimentation on GENI.
