OSHEAN, Rhode Island’s Research and Education Network (REN), is participating with Internet2 on a Proof of Concept (POC) for cloud connectivity aligning with the overall community effort to explore next generation network infrastructure.

Reflect on the work of Internet2 member institutions and see how your organization may benefit from being more involved with the solutions, knowledge, resources and best practices that can help secure your ecosystem of networks and applications—that are key to advancing scientific discovery and leading-edge scholarship.

Are you building or developing a science gateway – portal, virtual research environment, digital interface? Science Gateways Bootcamp: Strategies for Developing, Operating, and Sustaining Your Gateway is a week-long workshop for leaders of gateways who want to further develop and scale their work.

Internet2 enabled a remote collaborative performance between Tokyo, New York City, and London on the 8th of November, 2017.

During the recent SC17 conference, Joe Breen and Aaron Pabst from the Center for High Performance Computing at the University of Utah used the Internet2 SDN overlay network to investigate end-to-end networking troubleshooting techniques.

How do we manage the increasing security burden and keep pace with today’s research and academic needs and expectations? We encourage those with similar goals, interested in measuring security maturity or just curious about deploying wired 802.1X in a higher education setting, to join us during our presentation at TechEX 2017 on October 18. 

In today’s educational market, a cloud-based video conferencing service can really help to stretch limited resources and precious dollars. Learn more about Emory University's success with increasing adoption nearly five-fold through simplified system access, user training and an expansion of use cases in just a couple of years.

This summer, Internet2 announced a contest for submissions of research and education related projects using augmented reality, with a Microsoft HoloLens going to the winning institution. The response was amazing and we received a number of really great proposal including a wifi coverage visualizer, an interactive art gallery, student recognition and lecture note prompting, and enhanced lab environments for pharmacy students. I'm glad I didn’t have to choose the best one as it was a very difficult task – many thanks to our selection committee that included Gurcharan Khanna, Executive Director of the Center for Computation & Visualization at Brown University, Amela Sadagic, Professor at the Naval Postgraduate School, and Kevin Ponto, Professor at the University of Wisconsin, Madison.

Last week amidst a crowd of thousands in San Francisco's Moscone Center, nearly two hundred IT leaders and a dozen CIOs from the Internet2 higher education community joined colleagues from around the world for the annual Boxworks conference. In addition to the major Box announcements, attendees discussed implementation strategies across their campuses at a higher education reception and a panel discussion featuring representatives from Internet2 Member campuses Carnegie Mellon, Michigan, Morehouse College, Oregon State, and Penn State.

Perspective by Carrie Rampp, Associate Vice President and CIO, Franklin & Marshall College

Franklin & Marshall College became a full member of the Internet2 community this spring, with initial support from the National Science Foundation. Carrie is already serving the community—as a brand new member of the Community Engagement Program Advisory Group—and shares with us an excerpt of her message to her trustee technology committee and senior college leadership.

The 2014 Chinese American Network Symposium (CANS) will be held on September 15-17, 2014, hosted by New York University (NYU) in New York City. The symposium is build on the Internet2 US-China Collaboration Initiative, a multi-year, multi-path collaboration program between U.S. and Chinese researchers, scientists, educators and leaders in higher education.
