The CISE (Computer and Information Science and Engineering) department is offering this grant to drive discovery in computing disciplines by supporting world-class research infrastructure. This Mid-scale Infrastructure – NSFCloud grant specifically supports the academic community in developing and experimenting with novel cloud architectures, addressing emerging challenges like real-time and high-confidence systems. The grant is for this purpose: enabling researchers from diverse institutions, including minority-serving and undergraduate institutions, to access advanced computing infrastructure. This solicitation represents Phase I, focusing on infrastructure design, ramp-up, and demonstrating readiness for future full-fledged execution as an extensive research testbed.

Description: | The CISE Research Infrastructure (CRI) program drives discovery and learning in the computing disciplines by supporting the creation and??enhancement of world-class computing research infrastructure. This infrastructure will enable CISE researchers to advance the frontiers of CISE research. Further, through the CRI program, CISE seeks to ensure that individuals from a diverse range of academic institutions, including minority-serving and predominately undergraduate institutions, have access to such infrastructure.This Mid-scale Infrastructure – NSFCloud solicitation constitutes a track within the CRI program specifically??supporting research infrastructure that enables the academic research community to develop and experiment with novel cloud architectures addressing emerging challenges, including real-time and high-confidence systems. CISE anticipates two phases of activity for NSFCloud. This solicitation enables Phase I, which will support required infrastructure design and ramp-up activities, as well as demonstration of readiness for full-fledged execution. An anticipated future solicitation will enable Phase II, during which funded infrastructure is expected to become fully staffed and operational, fulfilling the proposed mission of serving as a testbed that is used extensively by the research community. |
