This grant provides funding to cover in part participant support costs for the 7th International Forum on Sustainable Manufacturing to be held during spring 2020 at the University of Kentucky premises in Lexington, KY. The theme of the event is "Sustainable Manufacturing in the Industry 4.0 Era". The forum aims to bring together nationally and internationally recognized academic experts, industry practitioners, government agency representatives as well as emerging researchers such as tenure-track assistant professors and post-doctoral scholar and graduate students to: (1) share cutting-edge research and industry practices in product, process and systems domains to enable total lifecycle-based sustainable manufacturing in the Industry 4.0 era, (2) provide a platform for different stakeholders who can contribute to advancing research and practice of sustainable manufacturing to engage in dialogue and discussions, (3) identify industry technology needs, research directions and workforce development needs for advancing sustainable manufacturing capabilities, and (4) increase awareness of sustainable manufacturing opportunities and challenges among all stakeholders. Special features of the event include: (1) invited presentations by experts in Industry 4.0 and Sustainable Manufacturing, (2) an "Emerging Researcher Showcase" with presentations from early-career researchers, (3) a panel discussion on "Opportunities and Challenges to Sustainable Manufacturing in the Industry 4.0 Era," (4) a student poster showcase, and (5) a "Sustainable Manufacturing Student Project Competition." This forum will provide an opportunity for tenure-track faculty, post-doctoral scholars and graduate students to interact with the prominent senior researchers and industry leaders in sustainable manufacturing and related areas facilitating a greater dialogue on the topics. This will facilitate greater awareness of each other's research to foster more collaboration between different organizations. Dissemination of presentations through different channels and potential scholarly publications will help contribute to a better understanding of sustainable manufacturing and related issues. This event will also serves as a feeder to the Global Conference on Sustainable Manufacturing (GSCM) to identify topics for continued dialogue and exchange of ideas among key sustainable manufacturing stakeholders. Local companies, who often do not have access to information about emerging practices, will have the opportunity to learn tools and techniques that can be used to improve the product, process and system level sustainability in the Industry 4.0 era in their own organizations.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.

这笔赠款提供资金，以支付部分参与者的支持费用为第七届国际论坛可持续制造将于2020年春季在肯塔基州的处所在列克星敦，肯塔基大学举行。本次活动的主题是“工业4.0时代的可持续制造”。该论坛旨在汇集国内和国际公认的学术专家，行业从业者，政府机构代表以及新兴研究人员，如终身助理教授和博士后学者和研究生：（1）分享产品、工艺和系统领域的前沿研究和行业实践，以实现工业4.0时代基于生命周期的可持续制造，（2）为不同的利益相关者提供一个平台，他们可以为推进可持续制造的研究和实践做出贡献，以进行对话和讨论，（3）确定行业技术需求，研究方向和劳动力发展需求，以提高可持续制造能力，以及（4）提高所有利益相关者对可持续制造机遇和挑战的认识。活动的特色包括：（1）邀请工业4.0和可持续制造领域的专家进行演讲，（2）“新兴研究人员展示”，由早期职业研究人员进行演讲，（3）关于“工业4.0时代可持续制造的机遇和挑战”的小组讨论，（4）学生海报展示，及（5）“可持续制造业学生专题研习比赛。“本次论坛将为终身教职员工，博士后学者和研究生提供一个与可持续制造及相关领域的杰出高级研究人员和行业领导者互动的机会，促进就这些主题进行更多的对话。这将有助于更好地了解彼此的研究，促进不同组织之间的更多合作。通过不同渠道和潜在的学术出版物传播演讲将有助于更好地了解可持续制造和相关问题。该活动还将作为全球可持续制造大会（GSCM）的一个补充，以确定可持续制造业主要利益相关者之间继续对话和交流想法的主题。当地公司往往无法获得有关新做法的信息，但它们将有机会学习可用于改进产品的工具和技术，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进行评估，被认为值得支持的搜索.
