This Supplement to the President's Fiscal Year (FY) 2011 Budget provides a technical summary of the budget request for the Networking and Information Technology Research and Development (NITRD) Program, as required by the High-Performance Computing Act of 1991 (P.L. 102-194), the Next Generation Internet Research Act of 1998 (P.L. 105-305), and the America COMPETES Act of 2007 (P.L. 110-69). The NITRD Program, now in its 19th year, provides a framework and mechanisms for coordination among Federal agencies that support R & D in advanced networking and information technology. The NITRD Supplement describes the FY 2011 networking and information technology R & D plans and current technical and coordination activities of the 13 Federal member agencies currently in the NITRD budget crosscut as well as other agencies that are not formal members of the Program but participate in NITRD activities. The Program expects to welcome the Department of Homeland Security (DHS), which has been a participant, as a NITRD member agency this year. In the NITRD Program, the term?agency? may refer to a department, a major departmental subdivision, or a research office or laboratory. NITRD activities and plans are coordinated in eight Program Component Areas (PCAs): high-end computing infrastructure and applications (HEC I & A); high-end computing research and development (HEC R & D); cyber security and information assurance (CSIA); human computer interaction and information management (HCI & IM); large-scale networking (LSN); software design and productivity (SDP); high-confidence software and systems (HCSS); and social, economic, and workforce implications of IT and IT workforce development (SEW). Agency program managers in each PCA meet monthly in an Interagency Working Group (IWG) or a Coordinating Group (CG) to exchange information and coordinate research plans and activities such as workshops and solicitations. Overall NITRD Program coordination is carried out by the Subcommittee on Networki.
