Some more thoughts:

other "CC" (computing & communication) words:
--------------------------------------------
occam - Open Computing & Communication ....
accent
accept
access
acclaim
accolade
accord
Bacchus
piccolo

"CAN" is nice because it gives you Computing and Networking:
--------------------------------------------------------------

canal : Computing And Networking Applications Laboratory
canvas: Computing And Networking V* A* System
-- this would be nice, because it's supposed to be a blank "canvas" for
researchers to paint whatever they want on it...
canyon
volcano

Misc:
------

pecan: Platform for Everybody's Computing And Networking

Midas: ... Distributed Applications and Systems

pandas: ... " " "

arenas: AREnas for Networking Applications and Systems
A Remote Environment for Networking Applications and Systems
-- appropriate, since it is an arena for research

swans: S* Wide Area Networking System

pawns: Platform for Applications of Wide area Network Systems
-- kinda appropriate, since the boxes are pawns in researcher's plans...

Ariadne: .... Distributed Networking Environment
