Location

Honolulu, HI

The FABRIC team is hosting a workshop that may be of interest to this community. FABRIC is an International infrastructure that enables cutting-edge experimentation and research at-scale in the areas of networking, cybersecurity, distributed computing, storage, virtual reality, 5G, machine learning, and science applications.

Join us for KNIT12, the next FABRIC Community Workshop, taking place April 14–17, 2026, in Hawaii. This year’s theme, “From Coast to Coast and Beyond: Science Across Research Networks,” highlights the growing impact of FABRIC as a platform that enables transformative, distributed research at scale. 

KNIT12 will bring together researchers, educators, students, and technologists for a dynamic, multi-day program designed to expand technical skills, inspire collaboration, and showcase real-world innovation. Attendees will engage in hands-on tutorials tailored for both new and advanced users, dive into specialized technical sessions, and participate in plenary presentations that offer insights into cutting-edge research using FABRIC. The workshop also features experiment showcases, where scientists from diverse disciplines demonstrate how FABRIC accelerates discovery, and open mic sessions that invite community feedback to shape FABRIC’s future. 

With opportunities to explore practical applications, build meaningful connections, and contribute to the evolution of this research infrastructure, KNIT12 will be an enriching and collaborative experience. Visit the KNIT workshop site for links and additional details.
