The BRIDGES project is developing an innovative, dynamic, high-performance trans-Atlantic network testbed that interconnects research communities and their resources in the US with collaborating partners and facilities in Europe. It explores advanced virtualized network architectures enabling rapidly reconfigurable global cyber-infrastructure to address changing research requirements of the collaborators to explore new concepts and to create new project workflows securely and with consistent, predictable performance.The BRIDGES facility consists of two geographically separate optical links spanning the North Atlantic and terrestrial optical links in US and Europe to form an intercontinental optical network ring topology, capable of carrying up to 200 Gbps of science data between major nodes in Washington, New York, Paris, and Amsterdam. The BRIDGES facility is a binding platform for research projects, providing a flexible research-oriented infrastructure connecting laboratories and universities in the US to their counterparts in Europe. Science applications in high energy physics, deep space communications, and even biomedical programs are collaborating with BRIDGES to leverage them investment in this technology to reach digital resources such as globally distributed or remote sensors and instruments, distributed data storage, analytical processing resources, to create new global applications tailored to the science at hand. BRIDGES is led by George Mason University and East Carolina University and is working with and connecting an initial community of nearly 40 networking and science research projects across the US and Europe. The project is expected to have a far-reaching impact beyond the testbed or interconnect facility and lead to innovative use of cyber-infrastructures.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.

Bridges项目正在开发一个创新，动态，高性能的跨大西洋网络测试台，该网络将研究社区及其在美国与欧洲的合作伙伴和设施相互联系。它探索了高级虚拟化网络体系结构，可以快速重新配置全球网络基础架构，以解决合作者不断变化的研究要求，以探索新概念并以一致，可预测的性能安全，可靠地创建新的项目工作流程。美国和欧洲的北大西洋和地面光学连接形成了洲际光网环拓扑，能够在华盛顿，纽约，巴黎和阿姆斯特丹的主要节点之间携带多达200 Gbps的科学数据。桥梁设施是研究项目的具有约束力的平台，为美国与欧洲的同行提供了一个柔性的面向研究的基础设施。高能源物理，深空通信甚至生物医学计划中的科学应用正在与桥梁合作，以利用他们对这项技术的投资，以达到数字资源，例如全球分布式或远程传感器和工具，分布式数据存储，分析处理，分析处理，以创建针对手头的科学量身定制的新全球应用程序。布里奇斯由乔治·梅森大学（George Mason University）和东卡罗来纳大学（East Carolina University）领导，并与美国和欧洲的近40个网络和科学研究项目合作并连接了一个初始社区。该项目有望在测试台或互连设施之外产生深远的影响，并导致对网络基础设施的创新使用。该奖项反映了NSF的法定任务，并被认为是值得通过基金会的知识分子和更广泛的影响来进行评估的支持。审查标准。
