IRES: U.S.-Czech Network Centric Intelligent System: Drexel and Czech Technical University

OISE 0930785 Regli该奖项是根据2009年美国复苏和再投资法案(公法111-5)资助的。这项美国-捷克学生国际研究体验计划(IRES)将费城德雷克塞尔大学的合作伙伴与布拉格捷克技术大学(CTU)的合作伙伴联系起来。由William Regli和Rachel Greenstadt领导的美国团队将人工智能、无线网络、隐私和安全方面的专业知识带到与捷克合作伙伴的一个为期三年的合作项目中，这些合作伙伴在多代理系统和元推理方面具有互补优势。在布拉格，IRES项目将由反恐联盟控制论部门的Michael Pechoucek领导。这些美国和捷克导师的共同目标是为代理通信领域做出贡献，同时为他们指导的研究生和本科生提供早期职业研究经验，以设计能够容忍严重干扰和干扰的系统。在合作IRES的过程中，美国-捷克团队将整合他们目前在新兴通信和协作智能系统方面的三个领域的研究，为学生项目提供广泛和有前途的新主题。研究的重点领域包括：1)受限环境下的代理通信；2)多代理系统的度量；3)多代理系统的设计模式。总体而言，研究人员和学生的共同努力有望为以网络为中心的智能系统的改进做出贡献。工程和计算机科学的跨学科IRES通过使美国和欧洲的专家能够结合互补的人才并在共同感兴趣和能力强的领域共享研究资源，实现了促进科学知识和吸引学生的计划目标。更广泛的影响包括将包括女性和少数族裔学生在内的美国初级研究人员早期职业介绍给国际研究界的专家，他们参与基于代理的系统设计以及创新建模。这一平衡良好的美国-捷克IRES计划的结果预计将提高基于移动代理的计算的性能。

OISE 0930785RegliThis award is funded under the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 (Public Law 111-5).This U.S.-Czech program for International Research Experiences for Students (IRES) links partners from Drexel University in Philadelphia with counterparts from Czech Technical University (CTU) in Prague. The U.S. team, led by William Regli and Rachel Greenstadt, brings expertise in artificial intelligence, wireless networks, privacy and security to a three-year collaborative program with Czechs partners who have complementing strengths in multi-agent systems and meta-reasoning. In Prague, the IRES program will be headed by Michael Pechoucek, in the CTU Department of Cybernetics. These U.S. and Czech mentors share the goal of contributing to the field of agent communications while providing the graduate and undergraduate students they mentor with early career research experience in design of systems that are tolerant of severe disruptions and interference. During the course of the collaborative IRES, the US-Czech team will integrate three areas of their current research in emerging communication and collaborative intelligent systems to provide broad and promising new topics for student projects. The focus areas include: 1) agent communication in constrained environments, 2) metrics on multi-agent systems, and 3) design patterns for multi-agent systems. Overall, the combined efforts of researchers and students are expected to contribute to improvements in network centric intelligent systems. This interdisciplinary IRES in engineering and computer science fulfills the program objective of advancing scientific knowledge and engaging students by enabling experts in the United States and Europe to combine complementary talents and share research resources in areas of strong mutual interest and competence. Broader impacts include early career introduction of U.S. junior researchers, including women and minority students, to experts in the international research community who are involved in the design of agent based systems as well as innovative modeling. The results of this well balanced U.S.-Czech IRES program are expected to enhance performance in mobile agent-based computing.
