| Excellence.gov Honors Esnet |
| DOE's Energy Sciences Network (ESnet), a high-speed network linking tens of thousands of researchers around the nation, was honored April 14 with an Excellence.gov award for its excellence in leveraging technology. The awards are sponsored by the Industry Advisory Council's (IAC) Collaboration and Transformation Shared Interest Group and recognize the federal government's best information technology (IT) projects. |
| A panel of 25 judges—federal government and industry executives—reviewed the nominations and selected ESnet as the winner in the area of "Excellence in Leveraging Technology," one of five award categories. The winners were recognized at a ceremony in Washington, DC. |
ESnet was honored for ESnet4, a recently completed network infrastructure providing highly-reliable, high-bandwidth connectivity to support and advance the United States' scientific competitiveness and capabilities by linking scientists at national laboratories and universities across the country. ESnet is funded primarily by the Office of Science and managed by Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory.
