This project supports hosting the four-day 23th edition of the GENI Engineering Conference (GEC), including organizing and hosting the demo session, to be held June 15-18, 2015, on the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign campus. The Global Environment for Network Innovations (GENI) is a virtual instrument that is rapidly emerging in prototype form across the United States. GENI is an instrument designed to address three issues:1) Science Issues: We cannot currently understand or predict the behavior of complex, large-scale networks;2) Society Issues: We increasingly rely on the Internet but are unsure we can trust its security, privacy or resilience; and3) Innovation Issues: Pre-GENI substantial barriers existed to at-scale experimentation with new architectures, services, and technologies.GENI addresses these issues via scale (from federation) and support for two kinds of experiments: 1) controlled and repeatable experiments, which will greatly help improve our scientific understanding of complex, large-scale networks; and 2) in-the-wild trials of experimental services that ride atop or connect to today's Internet and that engage large numbers of human participants. The GEC meeting and Demo sessions provide graduate students with both an opportunity to demonstrate and explain their work to the GENI community prior to formal publication. It is a key part of helping new graduate students understand what is being done with GENI and who amongst their peers at other institutions might be valuable resources. It also supports outreach to new community members, including the emerging US Ignite community. GENI is already being used as an instrument for research; this project supports further development and use of the research instrument.

该项目支持主办为期四天的第 23 届 GENI 工程会议 (GEC)，包括组织和主办将于 2015 年 6 月 15 日至 18 日在伊利诺伊大学厄巴纳-香槟校区举行的演示会议。全球网络创新环境 (GENI) 是一种虚拟仪器，其原型形式在美国迅速兴起。 GENI 是一个旨在解决三个问题的工具：1) 科学问题：我们目前无法理解或预测复杂的大规模网络的行为；2) 社会问题：我们越来越依赖互联网，但不确定我们是否可以信任其安全性、隐私或弹性； 3) 创新问题：GENI 之前对新架构、服务和技术进行大规模实验存在重大障碍。GENI 通过规模（来自联盟）和支持两种实验来解决这些问题：1）受控和可重复实验，这将极大地有助于提高我们对复杂、大规模网络的科学理解； 2）对实验服务进行野外试验，这些服务骑在或连接到当今的互联网上，并吸引了大量的人类参与者。 GEC 会议和演示会议为研究生提供了在正式出版之前向 GENI 社区展示和解释其工作的机会。这是帮助新研究生了解 GENI 正在做什么以及其他机构的同龄人中谁可能是宝贵资源的关键部分。它还支持拓展新的社区成员，包括新兴的美国 Ignite 社区。 GENI 已被用作研究工具；该项目支持该研究仪器的进一步开发和使用。
