One of the Federal government's missions is to act as an unbiased mediator in the resolution of disputes. One avenue for achieving resolution is the court system. There are other avenues, though, such as the National Mediation Board (NMB) which is required to mediate labor disputes in the railway industry. Building on a three-year collaborative technical project between NSF and NMB, this workshop will develop a broad technical and socio/legal research agenda for on-line dispute resolution and labor negotiation/mediation in Federal transporation agencies. In addition to a report to be widely distributed, the event will allow a forum for a broad selection of interested parties to begin forming a community of interest. Attendees will include lawyers, transportation experts, and computer scientists from academia, industry and Federal agencies that have mediation responsibilities.

联邦政府的任务之一是在解决争端中充当公正的调解人。解决问题的途径之一是法院系统。不过，还有其他途径，如国家调解委员会（NMB），该委员会被要求调解铁路行业的劳资纠纷。在NSF和NMB之间为期三年的合作技术项目的基础上，该研讨会将为联邦运输机构的在线争议解决和劳资谈判/调解制定广泛的技术和社会/法律的研究议程。除了广泛分发一份报告外，该活动还将提供一个论坛，供广泛挑选的有关各方开始组成一个利益共同体。与会者将包括来自学术界、工业界和负有调解责任的联邦机构的律师、交通专家和计算机科学家。
