30 EPSCoR RII C2 Awards The Difference Networking across the state Not just to awarded institution Expectation of involvement of “non research- centric” institutions External outreach needed Workforce Development was a component Meant as a way a state could grow to be able to leverage other programs
31
31 Expanded Major Research Instrumentation Program (MRI-R 2 ) Providing much stronger campus-level resources ~$300M in ARRA funds for FY10 1220 proposals requesting a total of $1.230 billion were accepted for review ~400 awards expected from $100K to $6M There were networking proposals Don’t have any stats for how many Instrumentation NOT infrastructure http://www.nsf.gov/od/oia/programs/mri/

33
33 A Few Lessons Learned… In the pragmatic networking calls, networks should be in support of some science need Don’t build a solution looking for a problem We still don’t always make great arguments about why we NEED to do upgrades Use numbers Define use cases Get user buy-in Make an argument for your technical solution
34
34 Long Standing NSF Data Policy “Investigators are expected to share with other researchers, at no more than incremental cost and within a reasonable time, the primary data, samples, physical collections and other supporting materials created or gathered in the course of work under NSF grants. Grantees are expected to encourage and facilitate such sharing.” Has not been widely enforced, with a few exceptions like OCE NSF Proposal and Award Policy and Procedure Guide, Award and Administration Guideline PDF page 61 http://www.nsf.gov/pubs/policydocs/pappguide/nsf10_1/aagprint.pdf
35
35 Changing Data Management Policy IMPLEMENTATION Planning underway for 2+ years within NSF May 5, 2010 National Science Board meeting Change in the implementation of the existing policy on sharing research data discussed Fall 2010 Change in the NSF GPG released http://www.nsf.gov/news/news_summ.jsp?cntn_id=116928&WT.mc_id=USNS F_51 http://news.sciencemag.org/scienceinsider/2010/05/nsf-to-ask-every-grant- applicant.html
36
36 In Early 2011: All proposals must include a data management plan Two-page supplementary document Can request budget to cover costs Echo the actions of other funding agencies NIH, NASA, NOAA, EU Commission What is this going to mean for the networking needs?
37
37 Conclusions FY09-FY10 has shown a marked increase in NSF support for pragmatic networking Cross-directorate support has in part enabled this Working to continue this trend A complete CI solution requires adequate networking, and end-to-end performance Data sharing is only going to grow
