Abstract---------------This workshop is intended for potential principal investigators who may submit proposals to the Division of Civil & Mechanical Systems' (CMS) Infrastructure & Information Systems (IIS) Program to discuss issues of research & education within an informal setting in conjunction with the 2005 ASCE Construction Research Congress. Workshop participants register the night prior where they are assigned to a working group and receive a "mock" research proposal; participants review the proposal before the workshop begins. The workshop commences during lunch the following day with introductory remarks and two keynote presentations: the first about research methodology and validation and the second about integrating research into education. Then, workshop participants break into their working groups to evaluate and report on the effectiveness of the "mock" research proposal. Specifically, participants are asked to provide suggestions on how the "mock" proposal could be improved based on the information provided by the keynote speakers, the participant's own ideas and/or the discussions within the working groups. The working group sessions are conducted much like an NSF review panel. The workshop concludes with a general panel discussion about the strengths and weaknesses of the mock proposal. The main goals of the proposed activity are: (1) to identify, invite, and bring together a select multi-disciplinary group of academic experts, which expertise fall within ISS' mission, and (2) to create alignment between the IIS' academic community around research methodology and the integration of research and education. From an intellectual merit perspective, this workshop is designed to engage in a meaningful and focused dialogue, and also, in a unique, integrated, and holistic way, the IIS's academic community of experts from multiple disciplines that normally do not have many opportunities within which to interact with each other. From a broader impact perspective, this project engages actively the academic community served by the Civil and Mechanical Systems' (CMS) Infrastructure & Information Systems (IIS) Program. This active engagement of the academic community will enhance and strengthen undoubtedly the infrastructure for research and education in the knowledge domains addressed within the IIS program.

摘要-本研讨会面向潜在的首席研究员，他们可能向土木工程与机械系统司(CMS)的基础设施与信息系统(IIS)计划提交建议，以结合2005年ASCE建筑研究大会在非正式环境下讨论研究与教育问题。研讨会参与者在他们被分配到工作组的前一天晚上注册，并收到一份“模拟”研究提案；学员在研讨会开始前审查该提案。研讨会在第二天的午餐期间开始，有介绍性发言和两个主旨演讲：第一个关于研究方法和验证，第二个关于将研究纳入教育。然后，研讨会参与者进入他们的工作组，评估和报告“模拟”研究提案的有效性。具体而言，与会者被要求根据主旨发言人提供的信息、与会者自己的想法和/或工作组内的讨论情况，就如何改进“模拟”提案提出建议。工作组会议的进行方式很像国家科学基金会的审查小组。研讨会最后举行了一次一般性小组讨论，讨论模拟提案的优点和缺点。拟议活动的主要目标是：(1)确定、邀请和召集一个精选的多学科学术专家小组，这些专家的专门知识属于国际空间站的任务范围，以及(2)在研究所的学术界围绕研究方法和研究与教育的融合建立联系。从智力优势的角度来看，这次研讨会的目的是进行有意义和有重点的对话，并以一种独特的、综合的和整体的方式，让来自多个学科的专家组成的国际研究所的学术社区进行交流，这些专家通常没有太多相互交流的机会。从更广泛的影响角度来看，该项目积极参与了土木工程与机械系统(CMS)基础设施与信息系统(IIS)计划所服务的学术界。学术界的这种积极参与无疑将加强和加强IIS计划涉及的知识领域的研究和教育基础设施。
