Industry/University Cooperative Research Center for Software Engineering

9418767 Mathur这个产学研合作研究中心（I/UCRC）是一个多站点的研究中心。普渡大学和佛罗里达大学正在将俄勒冈大学（包括俄勒冈州立大学、俄勒冈科学与技术研究生院和波特兰州立大学）作为I/UCRC软件工程（SERC）的研究地点。七家公司将与俄勒冈大学联合加入SERC，成为该中心的另一个研究地点。中心的研究议程将增加“时间不敏感二进制到二进制翻译”的研究项目；《基于熵的软件复杂性测度及其在软件测试中的应用》、《可视化编程语言》、《人机交互》、《构建网络应用的软件工程工具》。本中心的研究人员均具备开展研究项目的资格。该中心与美国国家科学基金会计算机计算研究项目主任Bruce Barnes博士合作。美国陆军部已提供资金，以加强该中心正在进行的研究项目，并获得该中心的会员资格。项目经理建议普渡大学在五年持续奖励的第一年获得5万美元的奖励。普渡大学提供的额外资金为一年35,437美元。在每12个月结束时，项目经理和/或工程教育中心部门的部门主管将根据一系列更新标准审查中心的进展情况，包括以下内容：1)行业/大学互动的发展程度；2)支撑基础的发展程度；3)一个强有力的研究项目正在发展的程度。如果审查令人满意，项目经理将建议支持该持续奖励的下一阶段。

9418767 Mathur This Industry/University Cooperative Research Center (I/UCRC) is being funded as a multi-site research Center. Purdue University and the University of Florida is adding the University of Oregon (including Oregon State University, the Oregon Graduate Institute of Science & Technology and Portland State University) as research sites in the I/UCRC for Software Engineering (SERC). Seven companies will join SERC inconjunction with the University of Oregon becoming an additional research site in the Center. The Center's research agenda will be increased by research projects on "Time Insensitive Binary to Binary Translation; "Entropy-Based Measure of Software Complexity and Its Application to Software Testing", "Visual Programming Languages", "Human Computer Interaction", and "Software Engineering Tools for the Construction of Network Applications." The researchers of involved with the Center are qualified to perform the research projects. The Center has been coordinated with Dr. Bruce Barnes, Program Director of the Computer Computation Research Program at NSF. The U.S. Department of Army has provided funding to augment the Centers ongoing research program and to obtain a membership in the Center. The Program Manager recommends the Purdue University be awarded $50,000 for the first year of a five year continuing award. An additional $35,437 is recommended for one year with funds provided by Purdue University. Near the end of each 12-month period, the Program Manager and/or the Division Director of the Engineering Education Centers Division will review the progress of the Center on a number of renewal criteria, including the following: 1) the extent to which the industry/university interaction is developing; 2) the extent to which the support base is developing; and 3) the extent to which a robust research program is developing. If the review is satisfactory, the Program Manager will recommends support for the next period of this co ntinuing award.
