Research with the ICCN

Building an Environment for Research and Discovery with the ICCN

For cutting-edge research in the sciences, humanities, and engineering, high-bandwidth, low-latency networks are an essential tool.

Current applications include:

  • Moving, storing, and visualizing large data sets.

  • Accessing scientific instruments or other facilities remotely.

  • Real-time interactions with data-gathering equipment.

With the ICCN, faculty and researchers are now in a better position to plan, build, and manage computer systems from individual computers on a desktop to workstation laboratories to state-of-the-art clusters.

The ICCN is maintained 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year, so the computers that researchers depend on in their day-to-day work have a high degree of reliability and long uptimes for research-related services.
