2011 Nanoelectronic Devices for Defense & Security (NANO-DDS) Conference: A Request for Funding to Support Attendee Participation. To be held Aug. 29 to Sept 1, 2011 at(NYU-POL

知识优势：国防与安全用纳米电子器件（NANO-DDS）会议是两年一次的科技盛会，旨在回顾纳米电子器件领域不断发展的研究与开发（R&amp；D）活动，这些活动与未来国防与安全的关键能力需求直接相关。本次特别会议的宗旨是统一和聚焦广泛的纳米电子和支持性纳米技术活动，这些活动目前正致力于实现国防和安全相关领域（如传感、数据处理、计算和通信）长期预期的应用回报。更广泛的影响：纳米科学技术（Nano-S&amp；T）领域固有的多学科性质和影响高优先级目标的潜力激发了2011年会议的独特组织。会议将支持许多新教师和研究生的参与。

Intellectual Merit: The Nanoelectronic Devices for Defense & Security (NANO-DDS)Conference is a bi-annual science and technology event which has been organized for thepurpose of reviewing the evolving research and development (R&D) activities in thearena of nanoelectronic devices that have direct relevance to critical capability needs fornational defense & security in the future. The charter of this special conference is to unifyand focus the very broad array of nanoelectronic and supporting nanotechnologyactivities that are currently engaged in reaching the long expected applications payoffs incore defense and security related areas such as sensing, data processing, computation andcommunications.Broader Impacts: The inherent multidisciplinary nature of the nanoscale science &technology (Nano-S&T) field and the potential for impacting high priority objectivesmotivate the unique organization of this 2011 conference. The conference will support participation of many new faculty and graduate students.
