Welcome to the home page of the CINO Innovation Working Groups: Internet of Things, Distributed Big Data and Analytics and End-to-End Trust & Security

In March 2015, Internet2’s new Chief Innovation Officer, Florence Hudson, asked you—our members—a very important question: Where would collaborative innovation efforts provide the most value for Internet2 members—and the world? Your answer was clear, and her initial focus was decided. Three new collaborative working groups have been created to address these important areas: Internet of Things, Disitributed Big Data & Analytis, and End-to-End Trust & Security. 

Working Group Operations

Each working group is led by Internet2 member representatives (with support from Internet2 staff), leverages member programs and resources, and encourages participation from the entire Internet2 community. Each group will make specific recommendations regarding scope, ensure economic viability and scalability, and clarify value to a significant segment of Internet2 membership.

Monthly open teleconferences are held in various locations to develop and review draft recommendations and open source output. Special teams may be established as each group sees fit to facilitate software or service development.

Why not join us and add your insights to the effort?

Each will formulate specific recommendations for a particular innovation initiative, including scope, value, milestones
