"CRA Calls for Advice on the GENI Science Council"

ACM TechNews says:

The National Science Foundation has invited the Computing Research Association (CRA) to establish a Computing Community Consortium (CCC) to help the computing research community build compelling long-term research visions and the mechanisms to realize them. One of the first responsibilities of the CCC is to create a council to help guide the design of the science plan for the Global Environment for Networking Innovations (GENI) initiative. The purpose of GENI is to enable the research community to invent and demonstrate a global communications network and related services that will be qualitatively better than today's Internet. The GENI Science Council (GSC) will provide broad research community involvement for
GENI, and the CRA is now calling on the community to help set the GSC agenda. They are seeking input on such matters as the research areas the GSC should address; overall characteristics the GSC should possess; and recommendations of specific individuals deemed strong contributors to the GSC. Responses should be submitted to CRA Executive Director Andy Bernat
at abernat@cra.org.
