UC San Diego’s GAIA Initiative Promises Transformation of Atmospheric and Climate Research
The realization that predictive climate research could be transformed by networked compute and data resources led to a breathtaking variety of research institutes in California. The next step is to accelerate this transformation by coordinating the institutes themselves so that they can each act as force multipliers for one another and for atmospheric, ocean, and climate research as a whole. That is the purpose of UC San Diego’s GAIA Initiative.
CENIC Members Doing the Impossible in Weather and Climate Forecasting with CENIC AIR and Advanced Networks
Vastly improved bandwidth and the emergence of AI-enabled tools—such as those made possible for CENIC members with CENIC AIR and NRP—have created a whole new era in weather prediction, climate modeling, and disaster preparedness.
Reimagining Supercomputing with the Distributed Bring-Your-Own-Resources Model
As society becomes more reliant on large-scale supercomputing centers for compute and storage, the costs associated with them have become a topic of discussion. One innovative hypercluster model—a distributed one—provides an alternative approach.
The CENIC AI Resource Powers Diverse Disciplines at CENIC Member Campuses
Learn how researchers at non-R1 institutions or those who need only a handful of GPUs can benefit from CENIC AIR, which can catapult their work to the next level and enable them to collaborate and compete with peers from larger, better-resourced institutions.
California at the Vanguard of AI-Enabled Education for All with CENIC AIR
At CENIC's recent biennial conference, San Diego Supercomputer Center Director Frank Wuerthwein discussed the revolutionary new model of education made possible by AI, data, and compute resources like those enabled by the CENIC AI Resource.
AI-Enabled Fiber-Optic Geodesy: CENIC Networking and Services Enable Cutting-Edge Seismology
Using Caltech's Zhan Group of Observational Seismology as an example, you can learn how CENIC members and CENIC AIR participants have much of what they need to carry out cutting-edge AI-enabled vulcanology and seismology.
CENIC and San Diego Supercomputer Center Create Sustainable Agriculture for California’s Future
CENIC’s networking and services, including CENIC AIR, can be a vital part of preparing new generations of farmers that will apply the latest technology to agriculture by turning the farm into an educational setting and improving the efficiency of farming as a career.
CENIC Members Enable Data-Driven Agriculture: Optimizing Harvests in a Changing Environment
The use of technology in agriculture to increase yield and decrease resources is the focus of an innovative project fueled by CENIC and its collaborative partners: a novel model of precision agriculture in the vineyards.
Explore the Future with Jupyter Notebooks and CENIC AIR
Jupyter notebooks are key tools for various research and data science tasks, such as exploratory data analysis (EDA) and scientific analysis, and educational uses. CENIC members are in an ideal position to use Jupyter Notebooks with the CENIC AI Resource (CENIC AIR).
CENIC Completes 800 Gbps Upgrade to California Research and Education Network
CENIC has completed its 800G backbone upgrade, and by the end of this year, all suitable segments will be transitioned to coherent pluggable optics.
