Research Computing, Networking, Infrastructure, and Middleware

A strategic imperative of higher education is establishing and maintaining a robust technical infrastructure to support both academic and administrative needs while accommodating rapid change. This infrastructure has become essential to the day-to-day operation of the institution and typically includes core services, web and middleware services, research computing, and advanced networking. Activities can include identity management, server virtualization, cloud computing, cyberinfrastructure, and new issues in data center management. These sessions consider the impact of changes in computer resource distribution, outsourced services, network architecture, research needs, and integration services.
