This project aims to establish a coordination network including representatives of industry, manufacturers, academia, and users of integrated smart devices. The "Internet of Things (IoT)" is the term used to describe the use and integration of smart devices capable of monitoring, controlling, collecting, sending, and receiving data to intelligent systems. The emergence of IoT will transform homes, institutions of education, manufacturing facilities, and other work places. As a new and rapidly emerging area of technology, IoT will generate a substantial need for technicians, technology integrators, and programmers. Community colleges across the nation are struggling with understanding and building programs to meet this future workforce need. As for other disruptive technologies, the emergence of IoT challenges educators to acquire the background knowledge needed to design high-quality IoT classes and programs. This collaboration network is designed to support the academic community at community colleges by studying the emergence of IoT technologies. The network plans to complete research projects on IoT products, technologies, standards, and applications. The results of these studies will help to inform decisions about how to optimally develop IoT programs at community colleges.The IoT Coordination Network aspires to bring together the principals and organizations that are leading the emergence of this technology. Members of this network include companies that manufacture and integrate IoT devices, and organizations that establish standards that govern IoT technologies. The network also intends to include experts on protecting the users and environments that are projected to be affected by these IoT devices. The project intends to convene this network of experts quarterly to examine emerging technologies, explore new products and devices, and provide guidance to educators preparing the next generation of IoT technicians.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.

该项目旨在建立一个协调网络，包括工业界，制造商，学术界和集成智能设备用户的代表。“物联网（IoT）”是用于描述能够监视、控制、收集、发送和接收数据到智能系统的智能设备的使用和集成的术语。物联网的出现将改变家庭、教育机构、制造设施和其他工作场所。作为一个新兴的技术领域，物联网将产生对技术人员、技术集成商和程序员的大量需求。全国各地的社区学院都在努力了解和建立项目，以满足未来的劳动力需求。至于其他颠覆性技术，物联网的出现挑战教育工作者获得设计高质量物联网课程和计划所需的背景知识。该合作网络旨在通过研究物联网技术的出现来支持社区大学的学术界。该网络计划完成物联网产品、技术、标准和应用的研究项目。 这些研究的结果将有助于为社区学院如何最佳地开发物联网项目提供决策依据。物联网协调网络希望将引领这项技术出现的校长和组织聚集在一起。该网络的成员包括制造和集成物联网设备的公司，以及制定管理物联网技术标准的组织。该网络还打算包括保护预计将受到这些物联网设备影响的用户和环境的专家。该项目旨在每季度召集一次专家网络，以审查新兴技术，探索新产品和设备，并为教育工作者准备下一代物联网技术人员提供指导。该奖项反映了NSF的法定使命，并通过使用基金会的知识价值和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估，被认为值得支持。
