The University of Wyoming is developing an environment providing researchers and students with access to local, regional, national, and international computational, networking, and data storage resources needed to transform scientific discovery and education. The university is developing a perimeter network named UW-DMZ (University of Wyoming DeMilitarized Zone) that contains and exposes the university's external facing services to the Internet. UW-DMZ enhances Big Computing and Big Data based research by providing infrastructure needed to leverage high performance, dynamic network services. Research is informed by a wide variety of data collected from field work and sensor networks, mined from databases, observed by lab experiments, or generated by simulations. The movement of data from their source to computational and visualization resources and then to the scientific world is critical. The university has good connectivity from the main computer center to the outside world, but currently researchers transfer data through a general purpose campus network. UW-DMZ creates a research optimized, devoted high speed network that is explicitly designed for Big Data applications and provides researchers access to existing wide area science services on campus.Class projects in upper division and graduate level networking classes help monitor, evaluate, and optimize UW-DMZ for different users and applications, thus providing students with deeper, enriching experiences. Through the university's significant research collaborations with Jackson State University on environmental hydrology, their students and faculty are trained in accessing and using computational and visualization resources and gain firsthand experience in how to facilitate scientific discovery through management and integration of Big Computing and Big Data.

怀俄明大学正在开发一个环境，为研究人员和学生提供了转变科学发现和教育所需的本地，区域，国家和国际计算，网络和数据存储资源。该大学正在开发一个名为UW-DMZ（怀俄明大学非军事区）的外围网络，其中包含并揭示了大学的外部面向互联网服务。 UW-DMZ通过提供高性能，动态网络服务所需的基础架构来增强大型计算和大数据研究。从现场工作和传感器网络收集的各种数据，从数据库中挖掘出来，通过实验室实验观察到或通过模拟生成。数据从源头到计算和可视化资源的移动至关重要。该大学具有从主要计算机中心到外界的良好连通性，但目前研究人员通过通用校园网络传输数据。 UW-DMZ创建了一项优化，专门的高速网络的研究，该网络是针对大数据应用的明确设计的，并为研究人员提供了校园中现有的广泛科学服务的访问。上层和研究生级网络类别的班级项目有助于监控，评估和优化不同的用户和应用程序，从而为不同的用户和应用程序优化，从而为学生提供了更丰富，丰富，丰富的体验。通过该大学与杰克逊州立大学环境水文学大学的重要研究合作，他们的学生和教师接受了访问和使用计算和可视化资源的培训，并获得了如何通过大型计算和大数据的管理和整合来促进科学发现的第一手经验。
