School of Information Sciences

Cyberinfrastructure Group

This group will examine leading edge research issues in networked systems including such sub-areas as strategic technologies for the Internet, network design, network management, network-aware data management, modeling and analysis of physical layer, and protocol design and analysis. In this case, networked systems will include distributed information systems and grid systems, particularly to the extent that they are focused on the systems rather than the applications components.
