This grant provides funding to organize an international workshop on Information Centric Engineering (ICE) and Cybertechnologies to be held on October 19-20, 2011, in Hersonissos, Crete, Greece. Dr. J. Cecil (Oklahoma State University, PI) and Dr. Herve Panetto (University of Nancy) will plan and conduct this workshop with the help of an organizing committee composed of faculty and researchers from universities and industrial organizations worldwide. The impact of cyber technologies and collaborative techniques on innovative engineering approaches and practices have been significant worldwide. Rapid advances in Internet technologies and Virtual Reality based engineering approaches have catalyzed the evolution of this new interdisciplinary field called "Information Centric Engineering" (ICE). This workshop's objectives are to bring together leading researchers to discuss the challenges and opportunities in ICE in the context of emerging and traditional engineering process domains. The objectives of this ICE workshop include: (i) Assess and discuss the state of the art and impact of information centric cyber engineering on nano/micro manufacturing, biomedical engineering and other emerging process domains; (ii) Identify specific "bottleneck" areas which need to be addressed by further research as well as explore ideas for future collaborative research in ICE in the context of identified process domains and subsequently develop white papers related to these findings for submission to NSF; and (iii) Discuss the creation of advanced ICE oriented Test Beds and "collaboratories" which will foster closer collaborative ties among workshop participants. This workshop seeks to stimulate discussion in the related areas that are relevant to ICE. The information related topics will include: (a) IT frameworks and distributed computing architecture and methods: relevant research related to future Internet designs with a specific emphasis on the GENI initiative, Cloud Computing, Semantic Technologies and other topics; (b) Virtual Prototyping approaches and technologies: this will encompass discussions on design of innovative Virtual Prototyping approaches; emergence of new technologies related to Virtual Reality systems (visual, haptic, etc); frameworks for collaborative immersive engineering, among others. These two ICE themes will be explored in the context of various process domains including Nano-/Micro-manufacturing, Bio Medical Engineering and other emerging process domains.An ICE workshop organizing committee comprising of researchers from universities and industry will be responsible for the overall organization including selection of participants, speakers and providing support to successfully conduct this workshop. The workshop participants (including faculty, researchers and doctoral students) will be selected to ensure diversity and broaden participation. Participation of Women, African American, Hispanic and other underrepresented groups will be encouraged. Paper presentations and panel discussions involving international researchers and participants will be held. The post workshop activities planned include submission of white paper reports and proposals to NSF and developing plans to create an international "collaboratory" to support research and educational activities in Information Centric Engineering. The session papers and other findings will be disseminated through conference and journal papers.

该赠款为组织将于 2011 年 10 月 19 日至 20 日在希腊克里特岛赫索尼索斯举行的信息中心工程 (ICE) 和网络技术国际研讨会提供资金。 J. Cecil 博士（俄克拉荷马州立大学，PI）和 Herve Panetto 博士（南锡大学）将在由来自世界各地的大学和工业组织的教师和研究人员组成的组委会的帮助下计划和举办本次研讨会。网络技术和协作技术对创新工程方法和实践的影响在全世界范围内都具有重大意义。互联网技术和基于虚拟现实的工程方法的快速发展促进了“信息中心工程”（ICE）这个新的跨学科领域的发展。本次研讨会的目标是汇集领先的研究人员，讨论新兴和传统工程过程领域背景下 ICE 的挑战和机遇。本次 ICE 研讨会的目标包括： (i) 评估和讨论以信息为中心的网络工程对纳米/微米制造、生物医学工程和其他新兴过程领域的最新技术和影响； (ii) 确定需要通过进一步研究解决的具体“瓶颈”领域，并在已确定的过程域的背景下探索 ICE 未来合作研究的想法，并随后编写与这些发现相关的白皮书以提交给 NSF； (iii) 讨论创建先进的面向 ICE 的测试台和“合作实验室”，这将促进研讨会参与者之间更紧密的合作关系。 本次研讨会旨在激发与 ICE 相关领域的讨论。 信息相关主题将包括： (a) IT框架和分布式计算架构和方法：与未来互联网设计相关的研究，重点关注GENI倡议、云计算、语义技术等主题； (b) 虚拟样机方法和技术：这将包括关于创新虚拟样机方法设计的讨论；与虚拟现实系统（视觉、触觉等）相关的新技术的出现；协作沉浸式工程框架等。这两个 ICE 主题将在纳米/微米制造、生物医学工程和其他新兴工艺领域等各种工艺领域的背景下进行探讨。由来自大学和工业界的研究人员组成的 ICE 研讨会组织委员会将负责整体组织包括选择参与者、演讲者以及为成功举办本次研讨会提供支持。研讨会参与者（包括教师、研究人员和博士生）的选择将确保多样性并扩大参与范围。 将鼓励妇女、非裔美国人、西班牙裔和其他代表性不足的群体的参与。将举行由国际研究人员和参与者参与的论文展示和小组讨论。计划的研讨会后活动包括向 NSF 提交白皮书报告和提案，以及制定计划创建一个国际“合作实验室”以支持信息中心工程的研究和教育活动。会议论文和其他研究结果将通过会议和期刊论文传播。
