Workshop on Future Research Needs in Advanced Manufacturing from Industrial Perspective; Arlington, Virginia; 11-13 August 2013

这笔资金用于支持2013年8月11日至13日在弗吉尼亚州阿灵顿举行的从工业角度看先进制造业未来研究需求研讨会。这个工作坊旨在为工业界和学术界的领袖提供一个论坛，让他们制定制造领域的长期研究目标，特别是创新的制造工艺和设备，并在考虑到对工业生态的影响的同时，提高各自的工艺能力，例如原材料消耗和环境影响。来自学术界和工业界的不同群体将聚集在一起，从工业的角度讨论未来的制造挑战和研究需求。研讨会的主要活动包括行业领袖和NSF项目负责人的演讲，以及研讨会与会者之间的互动。研讨会将对未来的研究需求和方向产生长期影响。预期结果包括对制造业研究的展望，对未来研究方向的建议，以及在行业领袖和学术研究人员之间建立长期对话的渠道。这次研讨会的结果将在公共网站和专业协会上传播，并将在制造业会议上公布。

This grant provides funding to support the Workshop on Future Research Needs in Advanced Manufacturing from Industrial Prospective; August 11-13, 2013; Arlington, Virginia. This workshop aims to provide a forum for leaders in industry and academia to formulate the long term research goals in the area of manufacturing, particularly innovative manufacturing processes and equipment, and to enhance respective process capabilities while taking into account impacts on industrial ecology, for example, raw materials consumption and environmental impact. A diverse group of individuals from both academia and industry will come together to discuss the future manufacturing challenges and research needs from industrial perspective. Major activities of the workshop include presentations by industrial leaders and NSF program directors, as well as interactions among workshop attendees.The workshop will create a long-term impact on the future research needs and directions. The expected outcome includes outlook to manufacturing research, suggestions of future research directions, and an establishment of a channel for long term dialogue between industrial leaders and academic researchers. Results from this workshop will be disseminated at a public website and to professional societies, and will be presented at manufacturing conferences.
