The National Science Foundation recently chose BBN Technologies to work with the research community to design GENI, a network research platform designed to go beyond what the Internet can offer.
GENI stands for Global Environment for Network Innovations, and according to the NSF “will be a shared, global facility designed to catalyze research on network architectures, services and applications.”
BBN, which has been awarded $2.5 million per year from the NSF for up to four years, has a long history in Internet-oriented breakthroughs, including its work on Internet predecessor the ARPANet and its work with Stanford and University College in London on the first Internet routers.
"GENI will give scientists a clean slate on which to imagine a completely new Internet that will likely be materially different from that of today,” said principal investigator and project director Chip Elliott of BBN, in a statement. “We want to ensure that this next stage of transformation will be guided by the best possible network science, design, experimentation and engineering."
