Multidisciplinary Research for Online Education Workshop

February 11-12, 2013/2013 Events, 2013 Visioning Activities, Visioning Activities, Workshop/CCC/Grand Hyatt

Participants explored computer science and multidisciplinary research agendas designed to improve formal and informal education. The workshop built on CCC’s earlier visioning activities on Global Resources for Online Education (GROE), addressing education-relevant research in areas such as intelligent student modeling through data mining, mobile computing for data logging, social networking, serious games, intelligent learning environments, HCI to facilitate educational interactions, computer-supported collaborative learning, interactive visualizations and simulations, and many other areas, to include research at the interface of computing and the social/behavioral sciences. While the workshop built on a rich existing landscape of cyber-enabled education research, it was also informed by very recent developments, such as massively open online courses (MOOCs), that make important dimensions of scale and openness explicit.

Convergence of Software Assurance Methodologies and Trustworthy Semiconductor Design and Manufacture (SA+TS)

January 15-16, 2013/2013 Events, 2013 Visioning Activities, Visioning Activities, Workshop/CCC/Le Méridien

Ensuring that a computer chip or other semiconductor-based component does exactly what it the customer wants it to do—nothing else—is becoming more challenging. Feature sizes continue to shrink and are measured in nanometers, circuits are more complex, and design and manufacture involves a supply chain, typically comprising many businesses worldwide.

Participation in the one-and-a-half day workshop was by invitation only. The output will be a report outlining the problems and areas of research that have the potential to lead to solutions.

Spatial Computing Workshop

September 10-11, 2012/2012 Events, 2012 Visioning Activities, Visioning Activities, Workshop/CCC/Keck Center

Spatial Computing is a set of ideas and technologies that will transform our lives by understanding the physical world, knowing and communicating our relation to places in that world, and navigating through those places.

This one-and-a-half-day NSF/CCC sponsored visioning workshop on Spatial Computing outlined an effort to develop and promote a unified agenda for Spatial Computing research and development across US agencies, industries, and universities.

Computing for Disaster Management Workshop

June 25, 2012/2012 Events, 2012 Visioning Activities, Visioning Activities, Workshop/CCC/Washington, DC

New research in computing technology can advance emergency response and recovery, while also driving forward the computer science and engineering fields.

This one-and-a-half-day National Science Foundation (NSF)/Computing Community Consortium (CCC) co-sponsored visioning workshop on computing for disaster management identified ways in which fundamental computing research in the broadest terms can advance the field of emergency response and recovery.

NITRD Symposium

February 16, 2012/2012 Events, Special Event, Workshop/CCC/Newseum, Washington DC

On February 16, 2012, more than 150 federal officials, Congressional staffers, academic researchers, and industry leaders packed a room overlooking the United States Capitol to mark two decades of coordinated federal investment in networking and information technology research and development. The daylong symposium, titled “The Impact of NITRD: Two Decades of Game-Changing Breakthroughs in Networking and Information Technology—Expanding Possibilities Ahead,” explored progress and prospects in the field.

Role of Information Sciences and Engineering in Sustainability

February 3-4, 2011/2011 and Earlier, 2011 and Prior Events, Visioning Activities, Workshop/CCC/Hyatt Regency, Capitol Hill

Role of Information Sciences and Engineering in Sustainability (RISES) Workshop, was sponsored by the National Science Foundation and the Computing Community Consortium.

Advancing Computer Workshops on Advancing Computer Architecture Research (ACAR) II

September 20-21, 2010/2011 and Earlier, 2011 and Prior Events, Visioning Activities, Workshop/CCC/Seattle, WA

Discontinuity-inducing trends (e.g., the arrival of multi/many-cores, the reduced reliability of semiconductors, and the ever-presence of power constraints) are transforming the field of computer architecture. Momentous changes should be expected in all domains, including portable clients, home and business computing, and datacenter/petascale computing.

Advancing Computer Workshops on Advancing Computer Architecture Research (ACAR) I

February 22-23, 2010/2011 and Earlier, 2011 and Prior Events, Visioning Activities, Workshop/CCC/San Diego, CA

Discovery and Innovation in Health IT Workshop

October 29-30, 2009/2011 and Earlier, 2011 and Prior Events, Visioning Activities, Workshop/CCC/Parc 55 Hotel

This invitation only workshop—co-sponsored by the CCC, the National Science Foundation, the Office of the National Coordinator for Health Information Technology, the National Institute of Standards and Technology, the National Library of Medicine, the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality, and the American Medical Informatics Association—brought together leading researchers in health information technology to discuss future research directions in this area.

This is part of a series of workshops on Health IT - view the series page.

New Forms of Industry – Academy Partnership in CPS Research

May 19, 2009/2011 and Earlier, 2011 and Prior Events, Visioning Activities, Workshop/CCC/Fairfax, Virginia

This by-invitation-only workshop was organized to discuss the unique needs and challenges of industry – academy partnership in Cyber Physical Systems (CPS) research.
