This funding renews a CISE Research Experience for Undergraduates site focused on experimental research in wireless networks at Notre Dame. The site provides students with opportunities to explore and study state-of-the-art solutions to many open challenges in wireless networking. Students receive hands-on experience in the design, implementation, deployment, evaluation, and measurement of wireless and mobile networks. The project focuses on recruiting students from diverse institutions with limited research environments. Undergraduate students participate in a ten-week summer research program at the host institution. The project includes mentorship by experienced computer science faculty members, experience with research and graduate life, and professional development opportunities for the participating students.The intellectual merit of this project lies in strong research basis and the expertise of the faculty. The projects are in major current research areas that are of interest to the community at large and that have clear practical applications. The research in wireless networking, mobile computing, and pervasive systems may lead to technologies that provide for public safety and ubiquitous municipal wireless access, thus advancing the current research in these important areas.The broader impacts of the project include providing a quality research experience to undergraduate students, particularly students from underrepresented groups. The relationships developed during the project could lead to future collaborations among the institutions of the participating students that may enable the students to continue their research and professional growth after the summer experience. Thus this project has the potential to produce new computer science graduate students and faculty members and to advance discovery and understanding while promoting learning.

这笔资金更新了 CISE 本科生研究体验网站，重点关注圣母大学无线网络的实验研究。该网站为学生提供了探索和研究针对无线网络中许多开放挑战的最先进解决方案的机会。学生将获得无线和移动网络设计、实施、部署、评估和测量的实践经验。该项目的重点是从研究环境有限的不同机构招募学生。本科生在主办机构参加为期十周的夏季研究项目。 该项目包括经验丰富的计算机科学教师的指导、研究和研究生生活的经验以及参与学生的专业发展机会。该项目的智力优势在于强大的研究基础和教师的专业知识。这些项目属于当前主要研究领域，这些领域是整个社区感兴趣的，并且具有明确的实际应用。无线网络、移动计算和普及系统方面的研究可能会带来为公共安全和无处不在的市政无线接入提供技术，从而推进这些重要领域的当前研究。该项目更广泛的影响包括为本科生，特别是来自代表性不足群体的学生提供优质的研究体验。项目期间建立的关系可能会导致参与学生的机构之间未来的合作，这可能使学生能够在暑期经历后继续他们的研究和专业发展。 因此，该项目有潜力培养新的计算机科学研究生和教员，并在促进学习的同时促进发现和理解。
