In a Time of Pandemic, Members Share Insight on the Power of Research and Education Networks

Categories RENS & NRENS

We asked some of our members to share how they have adapted their work and continued to fulfill their academic and service missions during the recent stay-at-home orders. We learned that while members’ use of the networks has changed, everyone we heard from said the value of R&E networks like CENIC and Internet2 continues to be realized through the human networks with which they connect; affordable, reliable, and scalable infrastructure, services, and support; public access to digital resources; and advanced networking tools to enable critical scientific research.

PRP Boosts Inter-Campus Collaboration on Brain Research

Neuroscience researchers at the University of California Santa Cruz, University of California San Francisco, and Washington University in St. Louis use the cloud-scale Pacific Research Platform and National Research Platform to share and compute massive open-source datasets, accelerating experiment times from weeks to mere hours.

Understanding Network Impacts of Increased Online Learning

While COVID-19 is creating unprecedented uncertainty, Research and Education Networks such as CENIC's CalREN will play an important role in supporting our educational institutions as they increasingly move to online learning. CENIC has prepared this information as a resource for members who have moved to, or are contemplating moving to, online instruction.

Network Engineers Collaborate in MANRS RPKI Deployment

At a workshop in October, network engineers from CENIC member institutions engaged in technical, hands-on labs and now have the ability to assess their own environments for implementing guidelines for Mutually Agreed Norms for Routing Security (MANRS) and Resource Public Key Infrastructure (RPKI) technology. Another workshop will be held in March. Learn how your organization can get involved.

CENIC to Explore Adoption of MANRS Global Initiative to Improve Routing Security

Network operators who take four simple steps to increase routing security will collectively help improve the global Internet’s core. CENIC will lead a collaborative pilot project to explore implementation of MANRS, promoted by the Internet Society. Learn how your organization can get involved.

Pacific Wave and Internet2 to Coordinate Trans-Oceanic Research and Education Network Exchange Point

Internet2 and Pacific Wave will collaborate on a pilot project to support global science research and scholarship through coordinated infrastructure, service integration, and collaborative outreach. The new Atlantic Pacific Research and Education Exchange (AP-REX) will include a 100 Gbps interconnection between US East and West Coast exchange points.

Internet2 Recognized as Outstanding Partner in R&E Networking

CENIC is recognizing Internet2 for the growing, innovative collaboration between the two organizations on numerous projects to renew, enrich, and extend the advanced research and education (R&E) network ecology, nationally and internationally.
