2009 NSF Civil, Mechanical and Manufacturing Innovation Grantees and Research Conference: Research and Education in a Flat World; June 22-25, 2009; Honolulu, Hawaii

该补助金提供资金，以组织2009年6月22日至25日在夏威夷的檀香山举行的2009年CMMI受资助者和研究会议。会议的目标是为土木，机械和制造创新部门提供一个论坛，展示他们的研究成果，并与远东和环太平洋地区的研究人员建立网络，以促进研究和教育方面更密切的国际合作。本次会议将包括主旨演讲、全体会议、研讨会、海报展示会、分组会议、社交活动和非正式互动，从而促成新的合作伙伴关系和产生跨学科的研究思路。会议主题提请人们关注地球仪前沿科学和技术研究不断变化的格局。它将使来自环太平洋地区的研究人员和教育工作者能够讨论他们的活动并形成合作，并可能导致土木，机械和制造创新部门支持的各个领域的研究步伐。

This grant provides funding to organize the 2009 CMMI Grantees and Research Conference in Honolulu, Hawaii, on June 22nd -25th, 2009. The goal of the conference is to provide a forum for the Division of Civil, Mechanical and Manufacturing Innovation grantees to showcase their research outcomes and network with researchers from the Far East and Pacific-Rim regions to foster closer international cooperation in research and education. The conference will consist of keynote presentations, plenary sessions, workshops, poster sessions, breakout sessions, social activities and informal interactions, which will result in seeding new partnerships and generating cross-disciplinary research ideas.The conference theme draws attention to the ever-changing landscape at the frontier of science and technology research across the globe. It will enable researchers and educators from across the Pacific Rim to discuss their activities and form collaborations, and will likely result in an advanced pace of research across the fields supported by the Division of Civil, Mechanical and Manufacturing Innovation.
