Collaborative Research: Consortium for Embedded Systems

嵌入式系统I/UCRC全中心方案Sarma vriddhula 0856039南伊利诺伊大学卡本代尔分校；嵌入式系统是特定于应用程序的计算系统，它已经并将继续渗透到人机交互的各个方面。家用电器、移动手持设备、医疗仪器等只是当今嵌入式计算系统的几个例子。该提议是建立一个中心来研究健壮、节能和网络化的嵌入式系统。该中心将由亚利桑那州立大学（ASU）牵头，选址在南伊利诺伊大学卡本代尔分校（SIUC）。该中心的主要活动将包括基础研究、与行业相关的研究、通过研究项目和定向行业赞助实习为本科生和研究生提供教育和培训，以及通过共享知识产权安排和学生就业实现的技术转让。拟议中心的成立将大大加强现有的研究合作，并极大地利用参与机构和工业伙伴的研究能力。拟议中心的研究活动将对以下广泛领域作出直接贡献：卫生保健、国土国防、能源和环境以及教育和文化。拟议中的中心将鼓励合作，研究将使学生和教师接触到对行业有价值的最先进的研究项目。参与大学的研究生和本科生以及来自不同行业成员的工程师将受益于I/UCRC的基础设施和行业驱动的研究和开发项目。这两所学校在让未被充分代表的人群参与科学、工程和数学方面都有着出色的记录。

Full Center Proposal for an I/UCRC for Embedded Systems 0856090 Arizona State University; Sarma Vridhula 0856039 Southern Illinois University at Carbondale; Spyros Tragoudas Embedded systems are application specific computing systems that have and continue to permeate across every facet of human and machine interaction. Home appliances, mobile hand-held devices, medical instrumentation, etc are just a few examples where embedded computing systems are found today. The proposal is to establish a Center to conduct research on robust, energy efficient and networked embedded systems. The lead of the proposed Center will be Arizona State University (ASU)) with site location at Southern Illinois University at Carbondale (SIUC). The main activities of the proposed Center will encompass fundamental, industry relevant research, education and training for undergraduate and graduate students through research projects and directed industry sponsored internships, and technology transfer made possible by shared IP arrangements and student employment. The formation of the proposed Center will significantly enhance the existing research collaboration and greatly leverage the research capabilities of the participating institution and industrial partners. The research activities at the proposed Center would have direct contribution to the following broad domains: Health Care, Homeland Defense, Energy and Environment, and Education and Culture. The proposed Center will encourage collaboration, and the research will expose students and faculty to state-of-the-art research projects of value to the industry. Graduate and undergraduate students at the participating universities and engineers from the various industrial members will benefit from the I/UCRC infrastructure and industry-driven research and development projects. Both schools have an excellent track record of getting under-represented populations involved in science, engineering and mathematics.
