REU Site: Research Experiences in Pervasive Computing for Smart Health, Safety, and Well-being

天普大学计算机与信息科学系的本科生研究体验(REU)网站将接待来自全国各地大学的不同群体的学生，进行密集的暑期研究体验。学生将与教师和研究生导师密切合作，研究可用于日常物品的普适计算系统，以提供对不断变化的环境条件做出反应的服务，通常很少或根本没有人类用户的互动。通过他们的研究项目，REU Site的学生将设计、实施和评估促进健康、安全和福祉的普适计算解决方案。这项研究由经验丰富的教师团队领导，他们将提供研究培训和基于项目的经验，平衡计算机科学理论、应用程序和实践技能，该项目还为学生提供职业发展机会。REU网站专注于从计算机领域历史上被排除在外的群体中招收学生，并强调包括来自研究机会有限的本科院校的学生。该项目是坦普尔大学计算机与信息科学系本科生研究经验(REU)网站的更新。REU网站将招收来自计算领域历史上被排除在外的群体的学生，并创建一个学生彼此密切合作、与教职员工和研究生导师密切合作的工作环境。研究项目将专注于创建和研究普适计算系统，该系统使用嵌入日常物品、景观和可穿戴物品的传感、驱动和计算，以改善普通公众的健康、安全和福祉。在与教师和研究生的合作中，学生将有机会进行研究，有可能在普适计算领域及其组成领域--网络、计算机视觉和以人为中心的数据科学--内推进知识。在整个项目过程中，学生还将有机会参加由REU网站主办的职业发展活动。该奖项反映了NSF的法定使命，并通过使用基金会的智力优势和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估，被认为值得支持。

This Research Experiences for Undergraduates (REU) Site in the Department of Computer and Information Sciences at Temple University will host a diverse group of students from universities across the nation to engage in intensive summer research experiences. Students will work closely with faculty and graduate student mentors studying pervasive computing systems that can be used in everyday objects to provide services that are reactive to conditions of the changing environment, often with little or no interaction from a human user. Through their research projects, REU Site students will design, implement, and evaluate pervasive computing solutions that advance health, safety, and well-being. The research is led by an experienced faculty team that will provide research training and project-based experiences that balance computer science theory, applications, and practical skills, and the program also provides professional development opportunities for the students. The REU Site focuses on recruiting students from historically excluded groups in computing and emphasizes including students from undergraduate institutions where there are limited research opportunities. The project is a renewal of the Research Experiences for Undergraduates (REU) Site in the Department of Computer and Information Sciences at Temple University. The REU Site will recruit students from historically excluded groups in computing and create a collaborative working environment where students work closely with each other and with faculty and graduate student mentors. Research projects will focus on the creation and study of pervasive computing systems that employ sensing, actuation, and computation embedded in everyday objects, landscapes, and wearable items to improve the health, safety, and well-being of the general public. In collaboration with faculty and graduate students, students will have the opportunity to conduct research that has the potential to advance knowledge within the field of pervasive computing and its component areas of networking, computer vision, and human-centered data science. Throughout the course of the program, students will also have the opportunity to participate in professional development activities hosted by the REU Site.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.
