Cloud Based Research in Higher Education
This survey is being conducted to gather information about cloud based  research computing needs in the Northeastern region.  We are planning a series of workshops and the information that you provide will help us design a program that will meet your needs.  Please answer as completely as possible.
The definition of cloud varies. We recognize a common definition and shared language of what is meant by cloud should be more widely established. For purposes of this workshop the NIST definition is used.
