Resilience of Interdependent Infrastructure Systems: A CRISP/RIPS Grantees Workshop - September 25-26, 2018 - Fairfax/Arlington, VA

NSF的关键弹性相互依赖基础设施系统和过程（CRISP）年度招标旨在加强和改进物理、网络和人类组成的复杂、相互关联和相互依赖的基础设施系统领域的科学知识。这些系统的系统被设计用来提供关键的商品和服务。因此，他们对从轻微到灾难性、恶意、技术或自然原因造成的各种破坏的集体复原力，对国家的经济竞争力，乃至更广泛的社会福祉至关重要。指导征集和评选奖项的基本原则是，解决此类复杂的人-网络-物理系统问题或通过其固有特性创造新机会需要整合网络、工程和社会视角。因此，CRISP招标的一个重要目标是培养一个由工程师、计算机和计算科学家以及社会和行为科学家组成的跨学科研究社区。为此目的，将举办一个受赠款者讲习班。研讨会的活动旨在：(1)分享获资助的科技创新计划/科技创新计划项目的研究进展和成果；(2)促进获奖者（包括学生和博士后）之间的互动；(3)促进创造新的跨学科方法；(4)增强和加强复原力和社会技术系统社区；(5)促成新的合作和新想法的形成。会议将通过演讲、研讨会海报、重点主题讲座、活动和有组织的讨论，促进科学工程和教育活动的加强和改进。研讨会的成果，包括会议产生的新想法、未来的研究需求等，将记录在最终报告中。该研讨会将加强和改进物理、网络和人类组成的复杂、相互关联和相互依赖的基础设施系统领域的科学知识。参与者将在这些困难的多时间、多空间、随机和动态的社会技术系统中分享他们的知识和研究进展。研讨会还将在这些领域和其他领域激发新的研究路径。弹性基础设施系统的设计、规划、运营和控制，以及了解故障如何在不加以预防的情况下跨系统传播和随时间传播，对于建设和维持一个充满活力、运转良好、繁荣和安全的公民社会至关重要。汇集来自各个学科和技术专业的专家，分享他们在这些领域的知识，将有助于国家实现这一目标。它还将培育新的思维方式和创新。在会议的规划和执行中，将明确考虑如何培养一个由不同背景的人组成的持久的CRISP/RIPS社区。该奖项反映了美国国家科学基金会的法定使命，并通过使用基金会的知识价值和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估，被认为值得支持。

NSF's Critical Resilient Interdependent Infrastructure Systems and Processes (CRISP) annual solicitation aims to enhance and improve scientific knowledge in the areas of complex, interconnected and interdependent infrastructure systems of physical, cyber and human components. These systems of systems are designed to provide critical goods and services. Thus, their collective resilience to the range of disruptions from mild to catastrophic, of malicious, technological or natural cause, is crucial to the nation's economic competitiveness and, more generally, societal well-being. An underlying principle that has guided the solicitation and selection of awards is that to tackle such complex human-cyber-physical systems problems or create new opportunities through their inherent properties requires integration of cyber, engineering and societal perspectives. Consequently, an important objective of the CRISP solicitation has been to foster an interdisciplinary research community of engineers, computer and computational scientists and social and behavioral scientists. To this end, a grantee workshop will be held. This workshop will involve activities designed to: (1) enable the sharing of research developments and findings from funded CRISP/RIPS projects; (2) promote interactions among awardees, including students and postdoctoral fellows; (3) foster the creation of new interdisciplinary approaches; (4) enhance and strengthen the resilience and socio-technical systems community; and (5) enable new collaborations and the formulation of novel ideas. The meeting will contribute to the enhancement and improvement of scientific engineering and education activities through lectern presentations, a workshop-wide poster session, lectures on focus topics, activities, and organized discussions. Outcomes of the workshop, including newly generated ideas from the meeting, future research needs and more, will be documented in a final report.The workshop will enhance and improve scientific knowledge in the areas of complex, interconnected and interdependent infrastructure systems of physical, cyber and human components. Participants will share their knowledge and research advancements in these difficult multi-temporal, multi-spatial, stochastic and dynamic socio-technical systems. The workshop will also stimulate new research paths in these areas and beyond. Designing, planning for, operating and controlling resilient infrastructure systems, as well as understanding how failures propagate across systems and over time when not prevented, are crucial for building and maintaining a vibrant, well-functioning, prosperous and secure civil society. Bringing together experts from across disciplines and technical specialties to share their knowledge in these areas will aid the nation in this purpose. It will also foster new ways of thinking and innovation. Ways to foster a lasting CRISP/RIPS community of persons with diverse backgrounds will be explicitly considered in the planning and execution of the meeting.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.
