WORKSHOP: Shared Organizing Principles in the Biological and Computing Sciences

拟议的讲习班将提供一个论坛，激发创造性思维和？科学家之间富有成效的互动，他们的研究兴趣在于两个不同的和充满活力的领域，计算科学和生物学之间的接口。这两个科学团体有着相互影响的历史，思想、方法和技术的转移大大促进了这两方面的发展。领域的最近，很明显，一系列类似的科学问题？被计算机科学家和生物学家问到。身份证和？@共同的组织原则的表达是正在进行的下一个合乎逻辑的步骤？对话，以及一个研讨会，汇集了领先的研究人员谁？研究是这两个领域的桥梁，是实现这些目标的理想场所。“什么？”拟议的研讨会将包括信息和？头脑风暴h会话？@与会者将讨论最新技术的现状、主要挑战和促进这一重要新兴研究领域进步的机制。具体涉及的主题是：（1）信息表示和？处理;（2）网络与通信;（3）系统综合与设计; (4)控制系统;和（5）学习和适应。知识价值：拟议的研讨会是一个副产品的活动？CISE-BIO工作组，由NSF项目主管组成，他们是谁？一年多来一直在开会讨论促进研究的战略，这两个部门之间的联系。通过对“？”上述领域，拟议的研讨会旨在加强现有的？计划和确定新的方向，最终目标是创造一个？一门综合学科，其中共有的组织原则来自生物学和？计算科学将产生新的范式，这是不同的，然而？更广泛的影响：拟议的研讨会将是一个真正的？思想的交汇？“h by？”“把一群不同的科学家聚集在一起，他们通常不这样做。参加同样的会议。除了为未来制定更清晰的愿景之外？在计算机和生物科学之间的接口研究，它是什么？预计将在讲习班上形成具体的新合作。“什么？”讨论的主题，确定的挑战和建议的未来方向将是？在研讨会后在网上传播，以提高对这些举措的认识？在广泛而多样的观众中。预计这将吸引学生作为？@以及更多的知名科学家在CISE-BIO进行研究？接口.

The proposed workshop will provide a forum to stimulate creative thought and?@productive interactions among scientists whose research interests lie at the interface between two diverse and vibrant fields, Computing Science and Biology.?@?@These two scientific communities have a history of mutual influence whereby the?@transfer of ideas, approaches, and technologies has significantly advanced both?@fields. Recently, it has become apparent that a similar set of scientific questions?@are being asked by computer scientists and biologists. The identification and?@articulation of shared organizing principles is the next logical step in the ongoing?@dialogue, and a workshop that brings together leading researchers whose?@research bridges the two fields is an ideal venue to achieve these goals. The?@proposed workshop will include both informational and ?gbrainstorming?h sessions?@in which participants will discuss the current state of the art, key challenges and?@mechanisms to catalyze advances in this important emerging research area.?@?@The specific topics to be covered are (1) information representation and?@processing; (2) networks and communication; (3) system synthesis and design;?@(4) control systems; and (5) learning and adaptation.Intellectual merit: The proposed workshop is an outgrowth of the activities of?@the CISE-BIO Working Group, which is comprised of NSF Program Directors who?@have been meeting for over a year to discuss strategies to promote research at?@the interface between these two Directorates. Through an exploration of the?@above mentioned areas, the proposed workshop seeks to enhance existing?@programs and identify new directions, with the ultimate goal of creating an?@integrated discipline in which shared organizing principles from the Biological and?@Computing Sciences will give rise to new paradigms that are distinct from, yet?@related to, those that drive research in the parent fields.Broader impacts: The proposed workshop will be a true ?gmeeting of minds?h by?@virtue of bringing together a diverse group of scientists who do not normally?@attend the same conferences. In addition to developing a clearer vision for future?@research at the interface between Computing and Biological Science, it is?@expected that specific new collaborations will be forged at the workshop. The?@discussion topics, identified challenges and proposed future directions will be?@disseminated online after the workshop to enhance awareness of these initiatives?@among a broad and diverse audience. This is expected to attract students as?@well as more established scientists to undertake research at the CISE-BIO?@interface.
