CISE invites you to attend an information meeting and webinar to announce and answer questions concerning its recently released solicitation, Future Internet Architecture-Next Phase (FIA-NP: NSF 13-538) on Monday, February 11, 2013, 1:00 PM to 2:30 PM EDT. You must register at https://mmancusa.webex.com/mmancusa/j.php?ED=200243927&RG=1&... to participate.
CISE plans to support research that builds upon its current investments in Future Internet Architectures (FIA) with the Future Internet Architecture-Next Phase (FIA-NP) solicitation. Proposals are expected to specify research activities that will take existing FIA designs from basic components that have been integrated into early prototypes that demonstrate architectural principles and requirements to more sophisticated architectures with demonstrated prototype systems.
The FIA-NP information meeting will be held February 11, 2013, 1:00PM - 2:30PM EST (10:00 - 11:30 PST)
You may attend the informational meeting either on site or via live webinar.
On site: Please come to room 110 at the National Science Foundation, 4201 Wilson Blvd., Arlington, VA. No badges are needed to attend on site.
Live Webinar: Please register to attend the informational meeting via webinar using the link provided below. After your registration is accepted, you will get an email with a URL to join the meeting. Please be sure to join a few minutes before the start of the webinar.

AWS recently introduced S3 Files, which lets users mount an Amazon S3 bucket and access its data through a standard file system interface. Applications can read and write files using standard file operations, while the system automatically translates them into S3 requests, allowing compute services to work directly with data stored in S3.

Google has announced the release of Gemma 4, a series of open-weight AI models, including variants with 2B, 4B, 26B, and 31B parameters, under the Apache 2.0 license. Key features include enhanced video and image processing, audio input on smaller models, and extended context windows up to 256K tokens.

Cloudflare has launched a new Model Context Protocol (MCP) server powered by Code Mode, enabling AI agents to interact with large APIs with minimal token usage. The server reduces context footprint across 2,500+ endpoints, improves multi-API orchestration, and provides a secure, code-centric execution environment for LLM agents.

Dany Lepage discusses the architectural journey of porting a hit VR title to seven non-VR platforms. He explains how his team solved the challenges of cross-progression, diverse input paradigms, and maintaining release velocity across Steam, iOS, and PlayStation. Beyond the tech, he shares candid lessons on the "product fit" gap when translating immersive social presence to 2D screens.

Software platforms must be treated as products. Success requires balancing engineering, design, usability, security, and value for internal customers and the organisation, Abby Bangser mentioned in her talk Platform as a Product. A product mindset, clear ownership, and continuous investment prevent bottlenecks, platform decay, and wasted effort, enabling scalable, sustainable value over time.
