Conference: 2010 International Symposium on Flexible Automation; Tokyo; Japan; July 12 - 14, 2010

提供支持，以部分支付2010年7月12日至14日在日本东京举行的2010年柔性自动化国际研讨会的美国与会者的差旅费。 这些资金将支持来自美国的大约20名研究人员参加研讨会。研讨会将包括三天的技术介绍和主题演讲，然后是研讨会后对日本主要大学研究实验室和工业生产设施的技术图尔斯参观。这笔赠款将刺激该领域研究人员之间的技术讨论，并促进未来的合作。参加研讨会的美国研究人员将从技术演示和讨论中获得有关各种过程和系统以及灵活自动化基本原理的知识。日本是纳米操纵、纳米加工、机器人和控制、传感器、系统分析和集成的世界领导者之一，来自美国的教师、博士后研究员和研究生、科学家和工程师，获得日本柔性自动化技术研究、开发和实施的第一手知识。

Support is provided to partially cover the travel expenses of selected US participants of the 2010 International Symposium on Flexible Automation, which will be held in Tokyo, Japan on July 12-14, 2010. The funds will support a total of about 20 researchers from the US to attend the symposium. The Symposium will consist of three days of technical presentations and keynote speeches, followed by post-symposium technical tours to major university research laboratories and industry production facilities in Japan. This grant will stimulate the technical discussion among researchers in the field and foster future collaborations. The benefits to the U.S. researchers attending the symposium will include the knowledge gained from the technical presentations and discussions on various processes and systems and underlying principles of flexible automation.Japan is one of the world leaders in nano-manipulation, nano-machining, robotics and control, sensors, system analysis and integration, the support will enable many researchers (faculty, post-doctoral fellows and graduate students), scientists and engineers from U.S. to gain the first-hand knowledge of research, development, and implementation of flexible automation technologies in Japan.
