这笔赠款用于支持将于2002年1月6日至7日在波多黎各的圣胡安举行的2002年美国/非洲/南美民用基础设施和制造材料研讨会的管理。 这次国际研讨会将有来自北美的11名科学家和工程师参加，而非洲、南美、亚洲和欧洲的同行则没有参加。 第一天，安排了关于基础设施和发展材料的特邀论文以及关于材料和制造业的论文。 第二个半天将集中讨论，规划未来的互动和合作，并起草研讨会报告。 除了通过出版物报告研讨会的结果外，它们将立即报告给参加2002年1月7日至10日在同一地点举行的国家科学基金会设计、服务和制造资助者和研究会议的更广泛的研究界，2002.发展基础设施以支持工程和制造业的全球实践是所有人经济福祉的关键问题nations. 这个由世界各地专家组成的小组将就各国之间的合作提出建议并制定一项联合议程，以提供21世纪世纪所需的技术和教育基础设施。

This grant supports the management of the 2002 US/Africa/South American Materials Workshop on Civil Infrastructure and Manufacturing that will be held January 6-7, 2002 in San Juan, Puerto Rico. This international workshop will host eleven scientists and engineers from North America and none of their counterparts from Africa, South America, Asia and Europe. On the first day, invited papers on materials for infrastructure and development, and papers on materials and manufacturing are scheduled. The second half-day will focus on discussion, planning future interactions and collaborations, and drafting a workshop report. In addition to reporting the workshop results by publications, they will immediately be reported to the broader research community attending the 2002 National Science Foundation's Design, Service and Manufacturing Grantees and Research Conference at the same venue on January 7-10, 2002.Developing the infrastructure to support the global practice of engineering and manufacturing is a key issue for the economic well being of all nations. This group of experts from around the world will advise and develop a joint agenda on collaboration among nations to provide the technical and educational infrastructure needed for the 21st century.
