This grant requests funding in support of a US delegation to attend the internationalconference entitled Service Operations and Logistics, and Informatics (SOLI) to be heldJune 21-23, 2006 in Shanghai, China. The role of services as a discriminator and itsability to impact value and profit has increased the focus on research. There is asignificant research and educational gap, and it is important to accelerate the relevantresearch in the pivotal areas to develop the knowledge and skills required in a servicesledeconomy.The main goal of this delegation is to deliver a keynote, a visionary panelsession, and 4 tutorials to publicize the NSF SEE research programs and address keyresearch and educational issues while providing a platform to spread the importance ofresearch in service oriented operation at this worldwide gathering. Some internationalcollaboration initiatives are expected. This annual conference is the first one of this kindto promote services sciences, management, and engineering research around the world.The majority of delegates thus are from NSF SEE grantees, and researchers andeducators in service engineering. As the conference participants are from differentsocieties (e.g., IEEE, INFORMS, ACM, ASME) and disciplines (IE, OR, Manufacturing,Business, Engineering), this support will also help delegates build researchcollaborations among not only NSF grantees but also researchers and professionalsfrom around the world. A significant portion of this grant will provide support to womenand minorities to encourage them to stay active in this new and vibrant field.

该基金申请资助美国代表团参加将于2006年6月21日至23日在中国上海举行的名为服务运营、物流和信息学（SOLI）的国际会议。服务作为一种服务的作用及其影响价值和利润的能力增加了对研究的关注。在研究和教育方面存在着巨大的差距，重要的是要加快关键领域的相关研究，以发展服务经济所需的知识和技能。这个代表团的主要目标是发表一个主题演讲，一个有远见的小组会议，和4个教程，以宣传NSF SEE研究计划，并解决关键的研究和教育问题，同时提供一个平台，以传播研究的重要性，在这次全球性的聚会上，以服务为导向的运作。预计将有一些国际合作倡议。本次年会是第一次在全球范围内促进服务科学、管理和工程研究的年会，因此大多数代表来自NSF SEE的资助者，以及服务工程领域的研究人员和教育工作者。由于会议参与者来自不同的社会（例如，除了与美国科学院院士协会（IEEE）、INFORMS、ACM、ASME）和学科（IE、OR、制造业、商业、工程）的合作外，这种支持还将帮助代表们不仅在NSF的资助者之间，而且在来自世界各地的研究人员和专业人士之间建立研究合作。这笔赠款的很大一部分将用于支持妇女和少数民族，鼓励她们在这一充满活力的新领域保持活跃。
