Cyber-Enabled Instrumentation Strategic Planning Workshop

加州州立大学富勒顿的凯瑟琳·A·坎塔尔吉夫(与霍华德大学的Raymond J.Butcher、芝加哥洛约拉大学的Alanah Fitch和印第安纳大学的Donald F.McMullen共同参与)和扬斯敦州立大学的Allen D.Hunter(与哈罗德·华盛顿学院的Thomas B.Higgins、芝加哥伊利诺伊大学的Bernard D.Santarsiero和扬斯敦州立大学的Matthias Zeller)合作，组织了一次关于“网络化仪器战略规划”的研讨会。研讨会将(1)评估网络化仪器在化学中的影响，特别是化学研究仪器设施的奖项：多用户计划；(2)确定仪器网络化的未来方向；(3)确定最适合更广泛化学界的未来仪器网络化的优先事项；(4)创建一个网络化仪器网络。在合作机构的多个用户之间高效和安全地传输数据对于促进研究、教育和科学至关重要。这次研讨会被认为不仅在化学领域，而且在其他学科也有潜在的广泛影响。

Katherine A. Kantardjieff of California State Fullerton (with Co-PIs Raymond J. Butcher from Howard University, Alanah Fitch from Loyola University of Chicago and Donald F. McMullen from Indiana University) and Allen D. Hunter from Youngstown State University (with Thomas B. Higgins from Harold Washington College, Bernard D. Santarsiero from University of Illinois at Chicago and Matthias Zeller from Youngstown State University) are supported by the NSF Chemistry Division Integrative Chemistry Activities to organize a workshop on "Cyber-Enabled Instrumentation Strategic Planning". The workshop will (1) assess the impact of cyber-enabled instrumentation in chemistry, especially for awards by the Chemistry Research Instrumentation Facilities:Multiuser program; (2) identify future directions of instrument cyber-enabling; (3) determine priorities for future instrument cyber-enabling that best suit the broader chemistry community and (4) create a cyber-enabling instrumentation network.Shared instrumentation is a corner stone of research. Efficient and secure transfer of data between multiple users in collaborating institutions is essential for advancement of research, education and science. The workshop is viewed as having potentially broad impact not only within chemistry, but other disciplines as well.
