NEES Cyberinfrastructure Center at the San Diego Supercomputer Center, UCSD George E. Brown, Jr. Network for Earthquake Engineering Simulation Background What is NEES? NEES is a shared national network of 15 experimental facilities, collaborative tools, a centralized data repository, and earthquake simulation software, all linked by the ultra-high-speed Internet2 connections of NEESgrid. These resources provide the means for collaboration and discovery in the form of more advanced research based on experimentation and computational simulations. What is NEESit? NEES Cyberinfrastructure Center (NEESit) is a service-focused organization created to deliver information technology tools and infrastructure to enable earthquake engineers to remotely participate in experiments, perform hybrid simulations, organize and share data, and collaborate with colleagues.

NEES Cyberinfrastructure Center at the San Diego Supercomputer Center, UCSD George E. Brown, Jr. Network for Earthquake Engineering Simulation Objectives Bring Mini-MOST I and Mini-MOST II into working condition. Reconfigure the existing Labview code. Enable the system to be accessible to external users. Provide an education and outreach environment to demonstrate the software tools to the broader community. Provide an environment where new software can be tested and perfected before being distributed.
