The I-WIRE (Illinois Wired/Wireless Infrastructure for Research and Education) project focuses infrastructure to support several classes of advanced applications as drivers for the development and proving of advanced network architectures and technologies. Each of these application types are detailed in the I-WIRE RFI Briefing Presentation (http://www.i-wire.org/RFIBriefing.ppt). Each of these application classes involves a set of network-attached devices that also drive the network technology. These devices range from supercomputers and large-scale PC clusters to information storage systems, wired- and wireless Internet appliances, and emerging display systems.

Combining an advanced wide area network facility with these applications and network-attached devices will provide a proving ground for a number of emerging technologies. These technologies are not limited to high performance optical systems (optical switching, DWDM, SONET, various metropolitan-area systems) but also include overlap with end-user systems (e.g. Bluetooth local area wireless and middleware infrastructure).
