This project establishes a new Science DMZ network infrastructure with increased bandwidth (UCI LightPath) at the University of California, Irvine to address the increasing demand for bandwidth and data-transfer performance within and beyond campus. The project also implements a new 10Gbps link from campus to the High Performance Research tier of the California Research and Education Network (CalREN-HPR) to boost science data transfer and analysis. Together these improvements to the networking infrastructure significantly enhance and expedite scientific data transfer by avoiding bottlenecks and potential performance impacting devices in the data-transfer path. The project allows campus IT personnel to explore and deploy new technologies such as the Software Defined Network (SDN) and IPv6, and to collaborate with researchers to better support their research activities.The improved Science DMZ network infrastructure directly impacts a variety of cutting-edge data intensive research efforts across campus by enabling more complex modeling and analysis of big data sets, and facilitating data exchange among collaborative research groups in the areas of Experimental Particle Physics at the Large Hadron Collider, Genomics and Bioinformatics, Hydrologic Modeling and Remote Sensing, Flow and Combustion Dynamics of Liquid Fuels, Biomolecular Simulations, Climate Modeling, and Cosmology. This project integrates IT research and education through an organized IT work-study program in the Office of Information Technology, which provides a platform to train future network engineers and operators. The project also supports existing K-12 outreach programs by enabling the transfer of data created in the lab to the programs for use in their curricula.

该项目建立了一个新的科学DMZ网络基础架构，并在加利福尼亚大学尔湾分校的带宽（UCI Lightpath）提高，以满足校园内外的带宽和数据传输性能的日益增长的需求。该项目还实现了从校园到加利福尼亚研究和教育网络高性能研究层（Calren-HPR）的高性能研究层的新的10Gbps链接，以促进科学数据传输和分析。这些改进对网络基础架构的改进通过避免瓶颈和潜在的性能影响数据转移路径中的瓶颈和潜在的性能影响，从而显着增强和加快了科学数据传输。该项目允许校园IT人员探索和部署新技术，例如软件定义的网络（SDN）和IPv6，并与研究人员合作，以更好地支持他们的研究活动。改进的Science DMZ网络基础结构可以通过在校园中进行更加复杂的数据集成和分析大型数据的研究组合，从而影响各种尖锐的数据强化研究工作，并分析大型数据集成和分析大型数据，并分析大型数据，并分析大型数据，并分析大型数据。大型强子对撞机，基因组学和生物信息学，水文建模和遥感，液体燃料的流动和燃烧动力学，生物分子模拟，气候建模和宇宙学。该项目通过在信息技术办公室中有组织的IT工作研究计划整合了IT研究和教育，该计划提供了一个培训未来网络工程师和运营商的平台。该项目还通过启用实验室中创建的数据转移到其课程中使用的程序来支持现有的K-12外展计划。
