Cyberinfrastructure Revolution

• “… the cyberinfrastructure layer… for the empowerment of specific communities of researchers to innovate and eventually revolutionize what they do, how they do it, and who participates.”

• “must also… exploit the new opportunities that cyberinfrastructure brings for … people who, because of physical capabilities, location, or history, have been excluded from the frontiers of scientific and engineering research and education.”
