The next generation of engineered systems and enabling materials are desired to have bio-mimetic attributes such as thinking, self organizing, self healing, self powered, multifunctional and reconfigurable, on demand information-to-knowledge conversion, application specificity, etc. Novel sensing capabilities are required to achieve highly sophisticated actuation and system control functions. To deliver such diverse attributes to today's device and system platform, advancements in micro and nanotechnology area are essential and timely. NSF Review Criterion 1-Intellectual Merit of the Proposed Activity: Innovations in micro and nanotechnology are essential to develop the devices, enabling materials and advanced systems, which can foresee and anticipate the important events rather than providing merely an after-event diagnosis. In the context, of the above subject it is imperative that the "discoveries and innovations in micro and nano technologies for sensing" need to be shared and discussed by eminent scientists and engineers on the international dais due to complexity and wide range applicability of the subject. Hence, the objective of this proposal is to call for such a focused workshop in conjunction with a large conference on "Smart Materials, Nano- and Micro- Smart Systems" sponsored by SPIE (http://spie.org/info/au) in Melbourne, Australia. The goal is to invite leading researchers in the related areas from America, Australia, and Japan to discuss and develop the subject through presentations and panel discussions, which will lead to further findings, recommendations and focused research programs/linkages between research groups on an international level. NSF Review Criterion 2- Broader Impacts of the proposed activity: The economy of several countries depends on the synergy between various technologies via the important common features of "sensing" techniques, "sensing" devices and "sensor" control systems. Principal research funding agencies such as National Science Foundation in USA, Australian research Council in Australia and Japanese Society for Promotion of Science (JSPS) in Japan can play an important role of enabler to bring American, Australian and Japanese teams of researchers together to provide an impetus to the advancement of sensing technologies to build integrated micro- nano- and macro systems. It is proposed to invite about 20 specialists from USA, about 15 from Japan and about 10 from Australia to participate in this workshop dedicated to novel and practical "sensing" applications. The efforts of a PI from USA and two co-PI's from Australia and Japan are being put together to plan and execute this project of international importance and relevance. The outcome of the workshop will be a detailed report and a book to be published by a leading publisher in USA. Attendance by industry champions may lead to collaborative projects to commercialize novel products.

下一代工程系统和使能材料需要具有仿生属性，例如思考、自组织、自愈、自供电、多功能和可重构、按需信息到知识的转换、应用特异性等。需要具备实现高度复杂的驱动和系统控制功能的能力。为了向当今的设备和系统平台提供如此多样化的属性，微米和纳米技术领域的进步至关重要且及时。 NSF 审查标准 1 - 拟议活动的智力价值：微米和纳米技术的创新对于开发设备、使能材料和先进系统至关重要，这些设备、材料和先进系统可以预见和预测重要事件，而不仅仅是提供事后诊断。 在上述主题的背景下，由于该主题的复杂性和广泛的适用性，“微纳米传感技术的发现和创新”必须由杰出的科学家和工程师在国际讲坛上分享和讨论。 因此，该提案的目标是呼吁举办这样一次重点研讨会，并与由 SPIE 主办的“智能材料、纳米和微米智能系统”大型会议相结合 (http://spie.org/info/au)在澳大利亚墨尔本。目标是邀请来自美国、澳大利亚和日本相关领域的领先研究人员通过演讲和小组讨论来讨论和发展该主题，这将导致进一步的发现、建议和重点研究计划/国际研究小组之间的联系。等级。 NSF 审查标准 2 - 拟议活动的更广泛影响：多个国家的经济依赖于通过“传感”技术、“传感”设备和“传感器”控制系统的重要共同特征实现的各种技术之间的协同作用。美国国家科学基金会、澳大利亚澳大利亚研究理事会和日本日本科学振兴会 (JSPS) 等主要研究资助机构可以发挥重要推动作用，将美国、澳大利亚和日本的研究团队聚集在一起，提供推动传感技术的进步，构建集成的微纳和宏观系统。拟邀请约20名美国专家、约15名日本专家和约10名澳大利亚专家参加本次研讨会，致力于新颖实用的“传感”应用。来自美国的一名 PI 以及来自澳大利亚和日本的两名联合 PI 正在共同努力规划和执行这个具有国际重要性和相关性的项目。研讨会的成果将是一份详细的报告和一本书，将由美国一家领先的出版商出版。行业冠军的出席可能会促成将新颖产品商业化的合作项目。
