This award is made under the high performance connections portion of NCRI's "Connections to the Internet" announcement, NSF 96-64. It provides partial support for a connection to enhance and accommodate the research needs for the University of Missouri-Columbia (MU) by establishing a connection to the Very High Performance Backbone Network Service (vBNS) via the MCI POP in Downers Grove, IL. Projects in this proposal include: Missouri Intelligent Networked Information System (MINIS), MU/NASA Regional Applications Center (MURAC), The Classroom of the 21st Century (Class21), Collaborative Information Spreadsheet of Geospatial Information (CISS), Interactive Shared Journal System (ISJS), Distributed Genome Database Browsing and Analysis Facility (DGDB), and Intelligent Multiagent Systems for Networked Scientific Computing (IMSN). MINIS explores the integration of computational intelligence methodologies and networked information. MURAC involves the realtime collection and processing of GEOS-8/9 remote sensing satellite hyper-image data data for distributed access by researchers in weather, environmental and agribusiness joint projects. Class21 involves the construction of a learning environment to permit project oriented collaboration by students in a shared information space. CISS involves the access and manipulation of geospatial information in a collaborative environment by widely dispersed researchers. ISJS involves the development of software to support new forms of teaching and learning. DGDB provides a seamless integration of genome databases to facilitate access and analysis by biomedical researchers. IMSN involves the creation of a problem solving environment for scientific computing applications. With this high performance network capability, MU will expand current research and collaboration with both academic institutions and federal laboratories. Collaborating institutions for this project include: University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, NCSA, NAS A Goddard, NASA Ames, JPL, Washington University-St. Louis, Monsanto Corporation, Ohio State University, Pittsburgh Supercomputer Center, San Diego Supercomputer Center, National Institutes of Health, and Purdue University.

该奖项是在NCRI“与Internet的连接”公告的高性能连接部分（NSF 96-64）颁发的。 它通过通过伊利诺伊州Downers Grove的MCI Pop建立了与非常高性能的骨干网络服务（VBN）建立连接，从而为增强和适应密苏里州哥伦比亚大学（MU）的研究需求提供了部分支持。 该提案中的项目包括：密苏里州智能网络信息系统（MINI），MU/NASA区域应用中心（MURAC），21世纪的教室（Class21），地理空间信息的协作信息电子表格（CISS），交互式共享期刊系统（ ISJS），分布式基因组数据库浏览和分析设施（DGDB）以及用于网络科学计算（IMSN）的智能多基因系统。 Minis探索了计算智能方法和网络信息的集成。 MURAC涉及实时收集和GEOS-8/9遥感卫星超图像数据数据，用于研究人员在天气，环境和农业综合企业联合项目中分布式访问。 Class21涉及建设学习环境，以允许学生在共享信息领域的面向项目的协作。 CISS涉及广泛分散的研究人员在协作环境中对地理空间信息的访问和操纵。 ISJ涉及软件的开发，以支持新的教学形式。 DGDB提供了基因组数据库的无缝集成，以促进生物医学研究人员的访问和分析。 IMSN涉及为科学计算应用创建问题解决环境。 凭借这种高性能网络能力，MU将扩大与学术机构和联邦实验室的当前研究和合作。该项目的合作机构包括：伊利诺伊大学的Urbana-Champaign，NCSA，NAS A GODDARD，NASA AMES，JPL，JPL，华盛顿大学St。路易斯，孟山都公司，俄亥俄州立大学，匹兹堡超级计算机中心，圣地亚哥超级计算机中心，国立卫生研究院和普渡大学。
