The initiative must be designed to attract the best researchers from both the Theoretical Computer Science (TCS) community and, crucially, the other scientific and engineering disciplines in which the ideas are to be applied. In preparing a detailed initiative, it is essential to incorporate the advice and cooperation of leading researchers in all these fields. For this purpose it is proposed to hold two two-day planning workshops, with thirty to forty participants in each. About a third of the participants will be invited speakers, a third will beinvited discussants, and a third will be selected from the TCS community. The distinguishing feature of these workshops will be their multidisciplinary nature; experts from different areas will be invited and asked to focus on the computational lens and its use in solving problems from their field. The first workshop is tentatively planned for early December, 2006 at Princeton University, and the second for mid-March, 2007 at Caltech. Because of the wideranging nature of the scientific disciplines involved, the first workshop will focus on Biological and Earth Sciences, and the second on Physical and Mathematical Sciences. A report for the NSF based on the workshops will be completed by Summer, 2007.The intellectual merit of this proposal is the development of viable, promising courses of future interaction between CS and other disciplines. The broader impact will be that upon follow-on research: both directly by participants in the workshops, but ultimately much more widely if the workshops lead to an NSFcross-cutting initiative.

该计划必须旨在吸引理论计算机科学（TCS）社区的最佳研究人员，以及至关重要的是应用思想的其他科学和工程学科。在准备详细的倡议时，必须在所有这些领域中纳入领先研究人员的建议和合作。为此，建议举办两个为期两天的计划研讨会，每个计划中有30至40名参与者。大约有三分之一的参与者将被邀请演讲者，将有三分之一的讨论者，三分之一将从TCS社区中选出。这些研讨会的区别特征将是它们的多学科性质；将邀请来自不同领域的专家，并要求专注于计算镜头及其在解决其领域问题中的使用。第一个研讨会是在2006年12月上旬在普林斯顿大学进行的，第二次研讨会于2007年3月中旬在加州理工学院进行。由于所涉及的科学学科的广泛本质，第一个研讨会将集中在生物和地球科学上，第二个研讨会将关注物理和数学科学。基于研讨会的NSF报告将在2007年夏季完成。该提案的知识分子是开发可行的，有希望的CS与其他学科之间未来互动的课程。更广泛的影响将是在跟进研究中：直接由研讨会的参与者直接由参与者进行，但如果讲习班导致NSFCROSS裁判计划，最终会更广泛。
