Arizona State University (ASU) and Tecnologico de Monterrey (ITESM) have recently signed a memorandum of understanding (MOU) and held two administrative meetings at ASU to explore collaborative research and education endeavors. This NSF award provides support to organize two workshops whose themes will be on Sensor Signal and Information Processing Systems. This program will positively impact US-Mexico research and education initiatives and will engage a number of qualified students and faculty from two large institutions in the area of sensors and signal processing. The program will engage underrepresented groups within STEM disciplines such as electrical engineering, with broader impacts on improving the engineering workforce base, with commensurate economic benefits to the two countries. The program will disseminate successful academy-industry collaborative models such as the I/UCRC in Mexico. Several application aspects of sensors will be addressed in industrial areas including localization, mobility with extensions to manufacturing, health, and other systems of common interest.The workshops which will engage USA and Mexico researchers, faculty and students and are titled:-Workshop 1: Sensors and Signal Processing for Localization and Security Applications;-Workshop 2: Academy-Industry Collaborations in Sensors and Signal Processing.The two workshops will be organized by the PI who will lead an organizing committee of faculty and industry partners. The first workshop will be in Tempe, Arizona (December 2015) and the second one in will be held in Monterrey, Mexico (May 2016). The objectives of the workshops are to: a) initiate collaborative structures between faculty and industry researchers in the US and Mexico through research and panel sessions, b) develop STEM foundations in the areas of sensor systems through organized tutorials for students and researchers that will support future workforce development efforts, and c) initiate industry-university relationsin Mexico using US industry academia-research models such as the I/UCRC.

亚利桑那州立大学（ASU）和Tecnologico de Monterrey（ITESM）最近签署了一份谅解备忘录（MOU），并在ASU举行了两次行政会议，以探索协作研究和教育努力。 NSF奖为组织两个主题的讲习班提供了支持，其主题将在传感器信号和信息处理系统上。该计划将对美国 - 墨西哥研究和教育计划产生积极影响，并将与传感器和信号处理领域的两个大型机构的许多合格的学生和教职员工与许多合格的学生和教师。该计划将在诸如电气工程等STEM学科中的代表性不足的群体参与，并对改善工程劳动力基地产生更大的影响，对两国的经济利益相称。该计划将传播成功的学术行业合作模型，例如墨西哥的I/UCRC。 Several application aspects of sensors will be addressed in industrial areas including localization, mobility with extensions to manufacturing, health, and other systems of common interest.The workshops which will engage USA and Mexico researchers, faculty and students and are titled:-Workshop 1: Sensors and Signal Processing for Localization and Security Applications;-Workshop 2: Academy-Industry Collaborations in Sensors and Signal Processing.The two workshops will be organized by the PI将领导教职员工和行业合作伙伴组织委员会。第一个研讨会将在亚利桑那州的坦佩（2015年12月）举行，第二个研讨会将在墨西哥蒙特雷举行（2016年5月）。 The objectives of the workshops are to: a) initiate collaborative structures between faculty and industry researchers in the US and Mexico through research and panel sessions, b) develop STEM foundations in the areas of sensor systems through organized tutorials for students and researchers that will support future workforce development efforts, and c) initiate industry-university relationsin Mexico using US industry academia-research models such as the I/UCRC.
