S&AS: COLLAB: Organization of the 2018 Smart and Autonomous Systems (S&AS) PI Meeting

该奖项的目的是为智能和自主系统（S&amp；AS）计划组织首届首席研究员（PI）会议。由于这是一个新项目，PI会议将为这个新的NSF项目设定智力基调并创建一个社区，以智能物理系统为中心，这些系统是可认知的、可任务的、可反思的、道德的和知识丰富的。PI会议将把积极参与S&amp；AS的研究人员、公司和项目官员聚集在一起，在共同的智力挑战、教育和培训方法、结果转换方面的最佳实践方面提供跨项目协调，以及一个持久的存储库，说明S&amp；AS项目所探索的研究思想和取得的里程碑。PI会议将于2018年4月5日至6日在华盛顿特区举行，会议形式包括所有出席PI的简短演讲、海报会议、主题演讲和小组讨论。会议邀请将包括所有获得S&amp；AS资助的pi，参与相关项目的项目经理，以及行业代表和媒体成员。该奖项反映了美国国家科学基金会的法定使命，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。

The objective of this award is to organize the inaugural Principal Investigators (PI) meeting for the Smart and Autonomous Systems (S&AS) program. As this is a new program, the PI meeting will set the intellectual tone for and create a community around this new NSF program, centered at intelligent physical systems that are cognizant, taskable, reflective, ethical, and knowledge-rich. The PI meeting will bring together researchers, companies, and program officers who are actively engaged in S&AS to provide cross-project coordination in terms of common intellectual challenges, methods for education and training, best practices in terms of transition of results, and a lasting repository illustrating the research ideas explored and milestones achieved by the S&AS projects. The PI meeting will take place during April 5-6, 2018, in Washington DC, and the format will include short presentations by all the attending PIs, poster sessions, keynote speeches, and panel discussions. Invitations to the meeting will include all PIs with active S&AS grants, program managers involved with related programs, as well as industry representatives and members of the press.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.
