Cyber Security I/UCRC

IIP 1134843弗吉尼亚理工学院和州立大学（VT）克兰西弗吉尼亚理工大学提议加入安全和软件工程中心（S2 ERC），这是一个NSF行业/大学合作研究中心（I/UCRC），目前是一个由鲍尔州立大学（牵头机构）和爱荷华州州立大学组成的多大学中心。该中心的重点是提高软件工程过程的管理，软件工程师的生产力，以及软件工程产品的安全性，质量和及时性。弗吉尼亚理工大学（VT）申请资金，成为美国国家科学基金会安全和软件工程中心（S2 ERC）的第三个网站的领导下教授T。查尔斯·克兰西弗吉尼亚理工大学和国家首都地区的教师的加入将促进S2 ERC在对国家至关重要的两个研究领域（即软件工程和安全）作为首屈一指的I/UCRC的声誉。计划参加S2 ERC的17名VT教师将提高该中心在软件/系统安全，硬件和嵌入式系统安全，无线网络和频谱安全，企业和互联网安全，动态网络系统建模和仿真以及网络法律，政策和业务等领域的研究能力。虽然其中一些研究领域代表了S2 ERC的新能力，但其他研究领域将加强该中心目前的专业知识。弗吉尼亚理工大学加入S2 ERC将使现有的中心能够访问广泛的北方弗吉尼亚州公司集中在这一领域。地理位置和当前联邦研究战略的结合将使该中心成为一个极其重要的研究课题的核心，也是业界对尖端研究成果高度感兴趣的研究课题。此外，弗吉尼亚理工大学还在五个国家开展业务。VT计划有一个非常多样化的学生和教师参与该中心。学生将受益于实验室工作和互动与美国国家安全局和其他机构在北方弗吉尼亚州沿着在网络安全课程。

IIP 1134843 Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University (VT) Clancy Virginia Tech proposes to join the Security and Software Engineering Center (S2ERC), an NSF Industry/University Cooperative Research Center (I/UCRC) which currently is a multi-university Center comprised of Ball State (lead institution), and the Iowa State University. The center focuses on improving the management of the software engineering process, the productivity of software engineers, and the security, quality and timeliness of software engineering products. Virginia Tech (VT) requests funding for becoming a third site of the NSF Center for Security and Software Engineering Center (S2ERC) under the leadership of Professor T. Charles Clancy. The addition of Virginia Tech faculty and from the National Capital Region will promote S2ERC reputation as the premier I/UCRC in two research areas critical to the country, namely software engineering and security. The seventeen VT faculty who are planning to participate in the S2ERC will increase the Center's research capabilities in areas such as software/system security, hardware and embedded system security, wireless network and spectrum security, enterprise and internet security, modeling and simulation of dynamic cyber systems, and cyber law, policy and business. While some of these research areas represent new capabilities in the S2ERC, others will strengthen current expertise in the Center. The addition of Virginia Tech to S2ERC will enable the existing center to access the broad array of Northern Virginia companies focused in this area. The combination of location and current federal research strategy will allow this center to be at the nexus of an extremely important research topic and one that industry is highly interested in cutting edge research results. Additionally, Virginia Tech has an international footprint, operating in five countries. VT plans to have an extremely diverse pool of students and faculty involved in the center. Students will benefit from laboratory work and interaction with NSA and other agencies in Northern Virginia along with coursework in cyber security.
