The research outcomes should aim to expand access to knowledge, expand coverage for research applications and maximize the benefit to the community. Three small grants of USD 20,000 USD will be allocated, for a total of USD 60,000 in funding." 
  • Les put together a possible project based on providing a better understanding of routes between Internet hosts.  The early draft document is at: https://confluence.slac.stanford.edu/display/IEPM/Visual+Traceroute+and+Archiving.  This might be the basis for a proposal that Wajahat would lead.
