Interdisciplinary Workshop on the Development of a National Broadband Research Agenda

宽带机会委员会（BOC）将其指导原则定义为确定和消除部署宽带基础设施的监管障碍，鼓励公共和私人对网络和服务的投资，促进宽带的采用和有意义的使用，并以促进公共利益的方式实现上述目标。为了确保这些原则，在其他建议中，BOC呼吁各机构“改进宽带数据收集、分析和研究”。该项目包括组织一个研讨会，旨在促进决策者、研究人员和数据管理人员（实施机构）之间的三方对话，共同确定一个宽带研究议程，最终为与这些利益攸关方中的每一个相关的问题提供答案。组织者将努力确保来自多个利益相关方的宽带专家的参与，包括大学及其附属研究机构、监管机构、政策制定者、行业机构和实施机构。将编写一份公开的讲习班报告，以传播讲习班的调查结果。

The Broadband Opportunity Council (BOC) defined its guiding principles as identifying and removing regulatory barriers to the deployment of broadband infrastructures, encouraging public and private investments in networks and services, promoting adoption and meaningful use of broadband, and accomplishing the above in ways that promote the public interest. To secure these principles the BOC, among other recommendations, called on agencies to 'improve data collection, analysis and research on broadband.'This project includes organizing a workshop designed to promote a three-cornered dialog between policymakers, researchers and data managers (implementation agencies), to collectively define a broadband research agenda that will ultimately provide answers to questions relevant to each of these stakeholders. The organizers will seek to secure the participation of broadband experts from multiple stakeholders, including universities and university affiliated research institutes, regulatory agencies, policy makers, industry bodies, and implementation agencies. A publicly available workshop report will be created to disseminate workshop findings.
