2013 CPS PI Meeting and CY 2013-CY 2014 Workshops on CPS Energy, CPS Transportation, CPS Agriculture, and CPS Medical Devices

本提案的重点是为2013年网络物理系统（CPS）主要研究者（PI）会议以及2013年底和2014年初能源、交通、医疗器械和农业领域的多个CPS相关研讨会提供技术协调。 每个研讨会由50-60名领先的学术研究人员和政府以及工业技术管理人员组成，将帮助社区了解网络物理系统和这些应用领域交叉点的研究挑战，并帮助为这些领域制定研究议程。 提供的技术协调包括在PI会议和研讨会之前创建网络资源;通过活动规划委员会协调和制定计划议程;开发，编辑和存档这些会议的内容;并帮助撰写，编辑和出版这些会议产生的研究需求报告。 该项目的更广泛影响包括会议/研讨会工件，特别是广泛而引人注目的研究议程，以指导未来对网络物理系统研发的投资，特别是在能源，交通，医疗设备和农业领域。

The focus of this proposal is to provide technical coordination for the 2013 Cyber-Physical Systems (CPS) Principal Investigators' (PI) meeting and multiple CPS-related workshops in the areas of Energy, Transportation, Medical Devices, and Agriculture in late 2013 and early 2014. The workshops, each comprising 50-60 leading academic researchers and government as well as industrial technology managers, will help the community understand the research challenges at the intersection of cyber-physical systems and these application domains, and help build research agendas for these domains going forward. Technical coordination to be provided includes creating web resources ahead of the PI meeting and workshops; coordination and formulation of the program agendas via planning committees for the events; developing, editing, and archiving content from these meetings; and contributing to the writing, editing, and publishing of research needs reports resulting from these meetings. The broader impact of this project is comprised of the meeting/workshop artifacts, particularly a broad and compelling research agenda to guide future investments in cyber-physical systems R&D, particularly in the areas of energy, transportation, medical devices, and agriculture.
