Description

Internet2 staff is dedicated to helping members realize their research, education and service missions. Here are just some of the ways we support our members: Convening community events; facilitating connections and collaborations; operating and supporting network, trust and cloud services; helping to develop technical solutions; assisting in grant proposal efforts; representing the community on matters of policy affecting research and education technology-and much, much more!

The Research Wave Program provides dedicated access to Internet2 Network services at a reduced cost for a limited period of time. Through the program, researchers can run short-term experiments much more nimbly, making it easier to try out new ideas and innovative approaches that can then grow into funded projects and collaborations. Network research projects can use the program to test their protocols and algorithms on experimental test beds before deploying them on permanent network infrastructures.
