MANN/0756484This award is for partial support of the 2008 International Conference on Aging, Disability and Independence (ICADI). In particular, support is provided for three of the track at the conference: Assistive Technology, Smart Homes, and Robotics. The intellectual merit of the conference arises from the multi-disciplinary approaches to supporting people as they age to maintain community integration and independent living through eight conference tracks: (1) Transportation; (2) Livable Homes and Communities; (3) Injury Prevention; (4) Robotics; (5 ) Smart Homes; (6) Telehealth; (7) Assistive Technology; (8) Work and Aging. Within each of the eight tracks, presentations and posters will reflect one or more of the following: (1) research and development, (2) policy, (3) practice and services, (4) business perspectives and (5) consumer perspectives.The broader impacts of ICADI have been and continue to be synthesizing and translating knowledge about disability and aging, and approaches to maintaining independence and quality of life, while fostering collaborations to support future research in this area. ICADI includes a mix of invited and submitted presentations, poster sessions, and networking opportunities with experts from around the world. ICADI-2008, as with previous ICADIs, will provide investigators, including those from the NSF Quality of Life Technogy ERC, the opportunity to present their research and development work. At the capacity-building level, ICADI will enhance opportunities for cross-disciplinary and advanced research training in disability and engineering, and rehabilitation-related fields through participation of graduate students, including 20 scholarships, and their mentors. ICADI, through scholarships, provides opportunities for graduate students to present their research, and opportunities for people with disabilities to both present their perspectives and learn more regarding technologies to support independence.

MANN/0756484该奖项是为了部分支持 2008 年老龄化、残疾和独立国际会议 (ICADI)。 特别是，为会议的三个领域提供了支持：辅助技术、智能家居和机器人技术。该会议的学术价值源于多学科方法，通过八个会议轨道支持人们随着年龄的增长保持社区融合和独立生活：（1）交通； (2) 宜居住宅和社区； (3) 伤害预防； (4) 机器人技术； (5)智能家居； (6) 远程医疗； (7) 辅助技术； (8)工作与老龄化。在八个轨道中的每一个轨道中，演示文稿和海报将反映以下一项或多项：(1) 研究和开发，(2) 政策，(3) 实践和服务，(4) 商业视角和 (5) 消费者视角。ICADI 的更广泛影响已经并将继续综合和转化有关残疾和老龄化的知识，以及保持独立和生活质量的方法，同时促进合作以支持该领域的未来研究。 ICADI 包括受邀和提交的演示、海报会议以及与世界各地专家交流的机会。 与之前的 ICADI 一样，ICADI-2008 将为研究人员（包括 NSF 生活质量技术 ERC 的研究人员）提供展示其研究和开发工作的机会。在能力建设层面，ICADI将通过研究生（包括20名奖学金获得者）及其导师的参与，增加残疾和工程以及康复相关领域的跨学科和高级研究培训的机会。 ICADI 通过奖学金为研究生提供展示研究的机会，也为残疾人提供展示观点和更多地了解支持独立的技术的机会。
