CI Awareness

This session provides an overview of the essential components and practical applications of cyberinfrastructure, starting with an introduction to its definition and key components including compute, data, software, networking, and people in the context of the NSF ACCESS program. It describes the importance and benefits of integrating cyberinfrastructure into the research process. It explores various computational resources available to researchers, such as high-performance computing (HPC), to help identify the best options for their needs. To illustrate the real-world application of cyberinfrastructure, examples of successful research projects were presented.
