Collaborative Proposal: REU Site for Pervasive and Mobile Computing

机构：奥本大学提案编号：EIA - 0243862PI: Saad BiazTitle：合作提案：REU网站普及和移动计算合作者：机构：阿拉巴马大学-塔斯卡卢萨提案编号：EIA - 0244156PI: Joel jones该项目支持两所大学的两个计算机科学部门的合作努力，建立一个普及和移动计算的REU网站。这项合作每年为两个校区的16名本科生提供支持，否则他们将无法接触到研究。该网站建立在两个机构的互补专业知识和在普及和移动计算方面现有的合作研究项目的基础上。一所大学将提供无线系统和少数民族学生教育方面的专业知识，另一所大学将提供紧急报告方面的专业知识。多所大学的普及和移动计算项目正在开发一种系统架构，以便将诸如PDA和3G移动电话等信息设备集成到紧急情况下第一反应者的操作中。本科生参与的这项研究的目标不是定义一个特定的系统，而是基于公共部门移动数据系统正在开发的经验数据来定义一个框架。

Institution: Auburn UniversityProposal Number: EIA - 0243862PI: Saad BiazTitle: Collaborative Proposal: REU Site for Pervasive and Mobile ComputingCollaborator:Institution: University of Alabama - TuscaloosaProposal Number: EIA - 0244156PI: Joel JonesThis project supports a collaborative effort of two Computer Science departments in two universities to establish an REU site in Pervasive and Mobile Computing. The collaboration supports 16 undergraduate students per year at the two campuses who would not be otherwise exposed to research. This Site builds on complementary expertise of the two institutions and on existing collaborative research projects in pervasive and mobile computing. One university contributes expertise in wireless systems and in minority student education, and the other will contributes expertise in emergency reporting. The multi-university pervasive and mobile computing project is developing a system architecture for integrating information appliances such as PDA's and 3G mobile phones into first-responders' operations in emergency situations. The goal of the research in which the undergraduates participate is to define not a particular system but a framework for public-sector mobile data systems based on empirical data derived from ongoing development of such systems.
