The workshop for "Building Communities for Software Infrastructure for Sustained Innovation" brings together the practitioners of software sustainability, including NSF SI2 participants, to discuss issues and challenges of common interest, to formulate responses benefitting the software enterprise as a whole, and working to build a community of software developers, maintainers, supporters, and users. This workshop also builds concrete affiliations between SI2 projects and other NSF CIF21 projects to help these programs function as coherent providers of cyberinfrastructure in the service of science and engineering research.This workshop addresses numerous challenges to success with software; for instance, sustaining a community of developers, building a community of users, fostering innovation and transforming innovation into a reliable, high quality component of software, building liaisons/affiliations with other efforts, developing and maintaining software requirements, managing change against an unstable software substrate, targeting innovative new software and hardware platforms; developing mechanisms to train new users and educate the next generations in ways to use software in scientific and engineering discovery, as well as to be developers of the next set of software capabilities, etc. The workshop will cultivate the software sustainability community, in order to bring innovative, useable, sustainable software to the user community, as diverse as they are, and to foster even more innovation, both in science and engineering research, as well as in the development of new software to enable better utilization of a comprehensive cyberinfrastructure.

“为持续创新的软件基础设施建立社区”研讨会汇集了软件可持续性的从业者，包括NSF SI 2的参与者，讨论共同感兴趣的问题和挑战，制定有利于整个软件企业的对策，并致力于建立一个软件开发人员，维护人员，支持者和用户的社区。 该研讨会还建立了SI 2项目和其他NSF CIF 21项目之间的具体联系，以帮助这些项目作为科学和工程研究服务中的网络基础设施的连贯提供者。例如，维持开发人员社区，建立用户社区，促进创新并将创新转化为可靠的，高质量的软件组成部分，与其他努力建立联系/附属关系，开发和维护软件需求，针对不稳定的软件基础管理变更，瞄准创新的新软件和硬件平台;开发机制，培训新用户，教育下一代如何在科学和工程发现中使用软件，以及成为下一组软件功能的开发人员等。研讨会将培养软件可持续性社区，以便为用户社区带来创新的，可用的，可持续的软件，尽管它们是多样化的，并促进更多的创新，无论是在科学和工程研究，以及开发新的软件，以便更有效地利用全面的数码基建设施。
