In August, I had the opportunity to attend a very interesting workshop
in Bozeman, Montana dealing with the evolution of
a National Research Platform (building on the work done on the Pacific
Research Platform). Larry Smarr, in his plenary session at
CNI's Spring 2018 Member Meeting in San Diego, provided some background
on these developments (and video of this presentation
is available at the CNI web site).

The videos from all the plenary sessions at the August workshop are now
available, and provide a detailed survey
of developments in this area. See
