The proposed project is to convene a workshop for NSF Cyber Enabled Discoveries and Innovations(CDI) Initiative. The workshop will be held at The Westin Hotel, located in downtown Seattle, WA, on June 14, 2008, from 8:00 am to 3:30 pm. The objective of the workshop is two fold. First, the workshop is to introduce the CDI initiative to the participants using a format of invited presentations, breakout discussions, and a question and answer session. Through the interactive workshop, potential principal investigators will have a deeperunderstanding of the scope and purpose of the CDI initiative. The second objective is to obtain feedback from workshop participants regarding how researchers from diverse backgrounds can partner to better respond to the CDI initiative.The seminar portion of the workshop will consist of 3 invited presentations. The invited speakers are John White - USTAR professor of neurophysiology at Univ. Utah, Bradford Hawkins, professor of ecology and evolutionary biology at Univ. California Irvine, and Michael Glantz, social scientist with expertise in climate - society interactions at the National Center for Atmospheric Research. These three speakers are complementary to the disciplines that attend the ACC. The number of participants is estimated to be no more than 40. Professor Karlene A. Hoo of Texas Tech University will chair the workshop and Professors Jay Farrell and John Chiasson will serve as advisors to the Chair for the workshop and lead the breakout discussion sessions. The breakout sessions will report back on questions such as "what application problems will benefit the CDI initiative" and how does a topic fit with the concept of computational thinking. Discussions resulting from the breakout sessions will be reported at the workshop and in a report to NSF. Finally, there will be an NSF question and answer session.Intellectual Merit The workshop offers a premier opportunity for the participants that attend ACC and others who choose to attend the workshop to find out about new research developments in computational thinking and transformative thinking in other disciplines. The workshop also offers a forum for the participants to interact and conceive new research directions and partnerships that create revolutionary science and engineering that are valueadding to the CDI initiative.Broader Impact The workshop provides the participants with opportunities to interact with researchers of different backgrounds to foster computational thinking and promote brainstorming of research ideas that will be responsive to the CDI initiative. The workshop also allows participants to cogitate on critical educational issues that will be needed to complementthe transformative research directions. The workshop will make every effort to include participation of new researchers (students and post doctoral associates) and underrepresented groups of researchers to enhance diversity. Dissemination of the workshop results using the internet will permit sharing the results with the public.

拟议的项目是为NSF网络使能发现和创新（CDI）倡议召开一次研讨会。研讨会将于2008年6月14日上午8：00至下午3：30在华盛顿州西雅图市中心的威斯汀酒店举行。研讨会的目的有两个。首先，研讨会将采用特邀演讲、分组讨论和问答的形式向与会者介绍土发委会的举措。通过互动研讨会，潜在的主要研究者将对CDI倡议的范围和目的有更深入的了解。第二个目标是从研讨会参与者那里获得反馈，了解来自不同背景的研究人员如何能够合作，更好地响应CDI倡议。研讨会的研讨会部分将包括3个特邀演讲。受邀的演讲者是犹他州大学的约翰白色- USTAR神经生理学教授，加州欧文大学的生态学和进化生物学教授布拉德福德霍金斯，以及国家大气研究中心的气候-社会相互作用专家社会科学家迈克尔格兰茨。这三位讲者是对参加ACC的学科的补充。与会者人数估计不超过40人。Karlene A.德克萨斯理工大学的Hoo将主持研讨会，Jay Farrell教授和John Chiasson教授将担任研讨会主席的顾问，并领导分组讨论会。分组会议将报告诸如“哪些应用问题将使CDI计划受益”以及主题如何与计算思维的概念相适应等问题。分组会议的讨论结果将在研讨会上报告，并在一份报告给NSF。最后，将有一个NSF的问答环节。学术价值研讨会为参加ACC的与会者和其他选择参加研讨会的人提供了一个绝佳的机会，了解其他学科在计算思维和变革思维方面的最新研究进展。研讨会还为与会者提供了一个互动和构思新的研究方向和合作伙伴关系的论坛，创造革命性的科学和工程，为CDI计划增值。更广泛的影响研讨会为与会者提供了与不同背景的研究人员互动的机会，以培养计算思维，促进对CDI计划做出响应的研究想法的头脑风暴。该研讨会还允许与会者思考补充变革性研究方向所需的关键教育问题。讲习班将尽一切努力吸收新的研究人员（学生和博士后）和代表性不足的研究人员群体参加，以加强多样性。利用互联网传播讲习班的成果将使公众能够分享这些成果。
