The University of Florida is the first university to fully
connect to the Internet2 Innovation Platform’s three components, an achievement
that will transform research at UF and provide a national model for research
computing.
The move will allow UF researchers to easily share enormous
amounts of data at ultrahigh speeds in collaborations with scientists
worldwide.
“Universities across the country are following closely our
progress and leadership in this area” said UF Vice President and Chief
Information Officer Elias Eldayrie. “They are looking to our experience to
learn from it, and we are glad to share it.”
