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（SAS）计划组织首届首席研究员（PI）会议。由于这是一个新的计划，PI会议将为这个新的NSF计划设定知识基调并创建一个社区，该社区以认知，可执行任务，反思，道德和知识丰富的智能物理系统为中心。PI会议将汇集积极参与S AS的研究人员，公司和项目官员，在共同的智力挑战，教育和培训方法，结果过渡方面的最佳实践以及说明S AS项目探索的研究思路和实现的里程碑的持久存储库方面提供跨项目协调。PI会议将于2018年4月5日至6日在华盛顿DC举行，形式将包括所有与会PI的简短演讲，海报会议，主题演讲和小组讨论。会议的邀请函将包括所有获得SA赠款的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。

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.
