The objective of this SGER grant is to provide partial travel support for selected U.S. university participants of the 2006 International Symposium on Flexible Automation (formerly known as the Japan-USA Symposium on Flexible Automation), which will be held in Osaka, Japan from July 10-12, 2006. The Symposium will consist of three days of technical presentations, panel discussions, and keynote speeches, followed by tours to major university research laboratories and industry production facilities in Japan. The approach for selecting the recipients of the travel support will be based on the following criteria: 1) Graduate student or faculty at a university in the United States, 2) Acceptance of the student and/or faculty member's paper for presentation at the 2006 International Symposium on Flexible Automation, and 3) Attendance and presentation of paper at the conference. This NSF travel grant will play a critical role in enabling many researchers (faculty and graduate students) from U.S. universities working in the flexible automation field to attend the conference and learn about research, development, and implementation of flexible automation technologies in Japan and other parts of the world. With the growing importance of automation technologies to greater manufacturing flexibility and lower production costs, this conference will serve as an important educational forum for U.S. based researchers to exchange and benchmark new ideas in the automation field. It will also enhance the ability of the symposium organizers to attract top U.S. university-based researchers to contribute to the Symposium.

这笔SGER赠款的目的是为参加2006年灵活自动化国际研讨会（原名日美灵活自动化研讨会）的选定美国大学参与者提供部分差旅支持，该研讨会将于2006年7月10日至12日在日本大坂举行。 研讨会将包括为期三天的技术报告、小组讨论和主题演讲，然后是对日本主要大学研究实验室和工业生产设施的图尔斯参观。选择差旅费资助对象的方法将基于以下标准：1）美国大学的研究生或教师，2）接受学生和/或教师在2006年柔性自动化国际研讨会上发表的论文，3）出席会议并在会议上发表论文。 这笔NSF旅费补助将发挥关键作用，使许多来自美国大学的研究人员（教师和研究生）在灵活自动化领域工作，参加会议，并了解日本和世界其他地区的研究，开发和实施灵活自动化技术。 随着自动化技术对提高制造灵活性和降低生产成本的重要性日益增加，本次会议将成为美国研究人员交流和衡量自动化领域新思想的重要教育论坛。 它还将提高研讨会组织者吸引美国顶尖大学研究人员为研讨会做出贡献的能力。
