This workshop will provide a forum for researchers in the fields of Engineering Design and Systems Engineering to assess the state of the art, examine the future challenges and opportunities, and identify promising directions for future research. In addition, the workshop will offer junior researchers and current NSF grantees from the Engineering and Systems Design and Systems Science programs the opportunity to showcase their research work in poster sessions to receive feedback from their peers and NSF program directors. The workshop will have a long-term impact by leading the research community towards the most important and impactful challenges and opportunities in systems engineering and design, which, in turn, will amplify the impact of future NSF funding in this field.The workshop will enable the systems engineering and design community to exchange ideas and explore future directions, while helping individual investigators determine important research topics in systems engineering and design, and more specifically, research topics that are within the scope of the Engineering and Systems Design and Systems Science programs at NSF. The workshop will bring together about 150 researchers who will be divided into small groups to discuss three specific topics. First, workshop participants will discuss design research methodology, addressing difficult issues that require community consensus such as: What are the characteristics of good research and good research methodologies in systems engineering and design? Or, how best to collect evidence in support of validation of research claims in systems engineering and design? Second, researchers will identify challenges and opportunities for future systems engineering and design research: What are the gaps in current knowledge and understanding of systems engineering and design? Or, what are the opportunities for the community to have a significant impact on systems engineering and design practice? Third, workshop participants will discuss how well aligned these opportunities and future research directions are with the current expertise within the community and with the NSF Engineering and Systems Design and Systems Science program descriptions.

本次研讨会将为工程设计和系统工程领域的研究人员提供一个论坛，以评估最先进的技术，研究未来的挑战和机遇，并确定未来研究的有前途的方向。此外，研讨会将为工程与系统设计和系统科学项目的初级研究人员和现任NSF资助者提供机会，在海报会议上展示他们的研究工作，以接收同行和NSF项目主任的反馈。研讨会将通过引导研究界走向系统工程和设计中最重要和最具影响力的挑战和机遇，从而产生长期影响，这反过来又将扩大NSF未来在该领域的资助影响。研讨会将使系统工程和设计界能够交流想法并探索未来方向，同时帮助个人研究人员确定系统工程和设计中的重要研究课题，更具体地说，确定NSF工程和系统设计以及系统科学计划范围内的研究课题。研讨会将汇集约150名研究人员，他们将分成小组讨论三个具体主题。首先，研讨会参与者将讨论设计研究方法，解决需要社区共识的难题，如：在系统工程和设计中，好的研究和好的研究方法的特点是什么？或者，如何最好地收集证据，以支持系统工程和设计中的研究声明的验证？其次，研究人员将确定未来系统工程和设计研究的挑战和机遇：目前对系统工程和设计的知识和理解存在哪些差距？或者，社区有什么机会对系统工程和设计实践产生重大影响？ 第三，研讨会的参与者将讨论这些机会和未来的研究方向如何与社区内现有的专业知识以及NSF工程和系统设计和系统科学计划描述保持一致。
