This highly interactive workshop, hosted by the NSF CC* funded Engineering and Performance Outreach Center (EPOC) [https://epoc.global] will present a process that can be adopted by Cyberinfrastructure (CI) facilitators to advance the mission of science engagement. Establishing a process to regularly review network requirements (http://www.es.net/science-engagement/science-requirements-reviews/) helps to determine the current and future science communication and collaboration needs for numerous communities. The purpose of these reviews is to accurately characterize the near-term, medium-term and long-term network requirements of the science being performed. This approach brings about a network-centric understanding of the science process used by the researchers and scientists, without asking technical questions directly, and derives network requirements from that understanding. Presenter(s): Jason Zuraski, Energy Sciences Network (ESnet) / Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory; Hans Addleman - International Networking at Indiana University (IN@IU)
The Toward Gigabit Libraries in PA Workshop will offer libraries and library systems the opportunity to learn about the Broadband Toolkit and resources from KINBER and other library service providers available to support libraries in their ever increasing role as "digital hubs" in their communities through the use of broadband networks and advanced services.
