| Title: | The New American University and National Innovation Network: A Winning Combination? (ID: NMM09_48204) | | Author(s): | Phil Halstead (Florida State University), Thomas W. West (National LambdaRail), Joel L. Hartman (University of Central Florida) and Gary Crane (Southeastern Universities Research Association) | | Topics: | Advanced Networking, Broadband Technology, Collaboration, High-Performance Computing, National Broadband Policy, NMM09 | | Origin: | Net@EDU (State Networks) (02/04/2009) | | Type: | Presentations and Seminars | | Abstract: | Can we, as regional optical networks (RONs), National LambdaRail, Darkstrand, National Public Lightpath, and key associations like SURA, "connect the dots" into becoming a national innovation network? As next-generation networks, can we collaborate among ourselves to stimulate more high-performance computing and computational science and engineering to solve mankind's greatest problems? Could this vision attract broadband investment dollars from the Obama administration? These questions will be addressed by a diverse panel of key network operators and users followed by open discussion with the audience.
