CyberBridges A Model Collaboration Infrastructure for e-Science

The “CyberBridges” pilot project is an innovative model for creating a new generation of scientists and engineers who are capable of fully integrating cyberinfrastructure into the whole educational, professional, and creative process of their respective disciplines. CyberBridges augments graduate student education to include a foundation of understanding in Advanced Networking and Grid Infrastructure for High Performance Computing, and bridges the divide between the information technology community and diverse science and engineering disciplines. We demonstrate the effectiveness of CyberBridges by providing four case studies. Groundwork has begun to extend the outreach of CyberBridges for international research and education collaborations.
