The 2007 FIND PIs Meeting

该奖项授予计算机研究协会（CRA），用于协调2007年11月NSF FIND（未来互联网网络设计）的主要研究者（pi）会议。ppi会议是一个将研究人员聚集在一起了解其他研究项目工作的机会，并提供一个讨论新想法和未来方向的论坛。CRA作为FIND FIND研究人员研讨会的推动者和组织者，为FIND FIND项目的重要工作提供支持，促进信息共享、社区建设和为FIND FIND项目的参与者制定研究方向。CRA在为FIND研讨会提供支持方面处于一个独特的位置，因为这个组织的使命是支持计算机方面的研究和高级教育，并使CRA的工作人员与许多由FIND资助的部门定期接触。CRA通过提供员工支持来促进工作坊。作为研讨会组织者，CRA负责研讨会前和研讨会期间的许多任务，如注册参与者、组织项目、分发讲义、安排会议地点并配备人员。2007年NSF未来因特网网络设计PI会议将于2007年11月27-28日在Ballston的Westin酒店举行。CRA将与FIND项目的工作人员一起组装项目要素。FIND会议将主要研究人员和受邀专家聚集在一起，目的是建立一个研究社区，以应对创建满足21世纪需求的新互联网架构的挑战。本次会议的重点是关于如何开始构建体系结构的初步想法，从满足特定应用程序类别（如基于内容的应用程序、对安全性有高要求的实时应用程序和危机时期的网络）的需求开始。此外，本次会议将汇集来自工业界和其他国家的相关研究人员，讨论潜在的合作。智力价值：会议上的演讲将为pi提供教育，让他们了解NSF FIND资助的其他研究成果，以及与其他研究人员和受邀嘉宾的互动，他们从事与FIND主题相关的工作，并将重振努力，产生新的和令人兴奋的研究成果。CRA在过去7年中为研究界组织了类似的研讨会。更广泛的影响：有了这些信息，与会者有机会与他们所在领域的其他研究人员联系起来，并可能形成研究合作。

This award is to the Computer Research Association (CRA) to coordinate a Principle Investigators' (PIs') meeting in November 2007 for the NSF FIND (Future Internet Network Design). The PIs' meeting is a chance to bring researchers together to learn about the work of other research projects and to provide a forum to discuss new ideas and future directions. CRA supports the important work of the FIND programs by acting as the facilitator and organizer of the FIND Workshop for FIND researchers to foster information sharing, community building and the generation of research directions for participants in the FIND programs. CRA is in a unique position to provide support to the FIND workshop because this organizational mission is to support research and advanced education in computing and in this capacity brings CRA staff into regular contact with many of the departments funded by FIND grants. CRA facilitates the workshop by providing staff support. As the workshop organizer, CRA is responsible for a number of tasks both prior to and during the workshop such as registering participants, organizing the program, distributing handouts, and arranging and staffing the meeting site. The 2007 NSF Future Internet Network Design PI Meeting will be held November 27-28, 2007, at the Westin Hotel in Ballston. CRA will work with the FIND program staff to assemble the program elements. The purpose of the FIND meetings that bring together principal investigators and invited experts is to build a research community to meet the challenges of creating new internet architectures that meet the demands of the 21st century. This meeting focuses on preliminary ideas on how to begin to build architectures by beginning with ones that address the needs of particular classes of applications such as content based applications, real-time applications with high need for security, and networks under times of crises. In addition this meeting will bring together relevant researchers from industry and from other countries to discuss potential collaborations. Intellectual Merit: The presentations at the meeting will provide PIs with education on what other research efforts are being funded through NSF FIND, as well as interactions with other researchers and invited guests who do work related to FIND topics, and will revitalize efforts to generate new and exciting research endeavors. CRA has organized similar workshops for research community the last 7 years. Broader Impacts: With this information attendees have the opportunity to associate themselves with other researchers in their field and possibly form research collaborations.
