NLR Affiliated ProjectsNLR Affiliated Projects - AtlanticWave
Atlantic Wave, a project led by NLR member SURA, is an international peering fabric interconnecting the US, Canada, Europe, and South America with distributed IP peering points in New York City, Washington D. [more] - Center for Analysis and Prediction of Storms (CAPS)
CAPS's mission is to develop and demonstrate techniques for the numerical analysis and prediction of high-impact local weather and environmental conditions, with emphasis on the assimilation of observations from Doppler radars and other advanced in-situ and remote sensing systems. [more] - Circuit-switched High-speed End-to-End Transport ArcHitecture (CHEETAH)
CHEETAH is a comprehensive effort to develop the infrastructure and networking technologies to support a broad class of eScience projects and specifically the Terascale Supernova Initiative (TSI). [more] - Community Cyberinfrastructure for Advanced Marine Microbial Ecology Research and Analysis (CAMERA)
Researchers at UCSD will leverage the National LambdaRail infrastructure as part of an effort to build a state-of-the-art computational resource and develop software tools to decipher the genetic code of communities of microbial life in the world's oceans. [more] - EnLIGHTened Computing
The focus of the Enlightened Computing project is on developing dynamic, adaptive, coordinated and optimized use of networks connecting geographically distributed high-end computing resources and scientific instrumentation. [more] - Extensible TeraScale Facility
The Extensible Terascale Facility (ETF), or TeraGrid, is a National Science Foundation-supported, multi-million dollar, multi-year effort that has built and deployed a world-class networking, computing and storage infrastructure designed to engage the science and engineering community to utilize to catalyze new discoveries. [more] - FCC Rural Health Care Pilot Program
The FCC Rural Healthcare pilot program is an enhanced funding initiative intended to help public and non-profit health care providers construct state- and region-wide broadband networks to provide telehealth and telemedicine services throughout the nation. [more] - OptIPuter
The OptIPuter — so named for its use of optical networking, Internet protocol, computer storage, processing and visualization technologies — is an envisioned infrastructure that will tightly couple computational resources over parallel optical networks using the IP communication mechanism. [more] - Pacific Wave
Pacific Wave, a project of the Corporation for Education Network Initiatives in California (CENIC) and the Pacific Northwest Gigapop (PNWGP) uses the National LambdaRail infrastructure in a joint project to create, deploy, and operate an advanced, extensible peering facility along the entire Pacific Coast of the US. [more] - TeraFlow Testbed
The Teraflow Testbed (TFT) is an international application testbed for exploring, integrating, analyzing, and detecting changes in massive and distributed data over wide area high performance networks. [more] - TransitRail
TransitRail is a commodity peering program designed to improve network performance and reduce the overall cost of, and reliance on, commodity Internet transit services. [more] - UltraScience
The next generation U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) large-scale science projects have requirements that will drive extreme networking, in terms of sheer throughputs as well as other capabilities. [more]
