GENI, the Global Environment for Network Innovations, is a suite of research infrastructure that spans facilities across the United States. GENI aims to transform experimental research in networking and distributed systems, as well as emerging research into very large social-technical systems, by providing a suite of infrastructure for "at scale" experiments in future internets. Nationwide experiments began in Summer 2010. In the intervening five years, GENI has shown rapid growth in adoption by experimental researchers and is now expanding to over 50 GENI-enabled campuses. In addition, via programs such as Campus CyberInfrastructure and US Ignite, GENI technologies are being actively used to advance national science capabilities and to imagine and design next generation applications that address national priorities. Via commercialization of technologies such as Software Defined Networking and Network Function Virtualization GENI has had a significant economic impact. This project supports the transition of GENI from a building phase overseen by the GENI Program Office (GPO) to an operational status managed by community organizations. As part of the project, the GPO will broadly engage the U.S. computer systems research community to develop a community consensus-based plan for transition. In conjunction with NSF the organizational structure identified by this plan will be established and GENI operations transferred with the project supporting operational expenses during the transition period.

GENI（全球网络创新环境）是一套涵盖美国各地设施的研究基础设施。 GENI 旨在通过为未来互联网中的“大规模”实验提供一套基础设施，将网络和分布式系统的实验研究以及新兴研究转变为大型社会技术系统。全国范围内的实验于 2010 年夏季开始。在接下来的 5 年里，实验研究人员对 GENI 的采用率迅速增长，目前已扩展到 50 多个支持 GENI 的校园。 此外，通过校园网络基础设施和 US Ignite 等项目，GENI 技术正被积极用于提高国家科学能力，并设想和设计解决国家优先事项的下一代应用程序。 通过软件定义网络和网络功能虚拟化等技术的商业化，GENI 产生了重大的经济影响。该项目支持 GENI 从由 GENI 项目办公室 (GPO) 监督的建设阶段过渡到由社区组织管理的运营状态。 作为该项目的一部分，GPO 将广泛与美国计算机系统研究界合作，制定基于社区共识的过渡计划。 将与 NSF 一起建立该计划确定的组织结构，并在过渡期间将 GENI 业务与支持运营费用的项目一起转移。
