In 2015, NSF awarded $6 million to establish four regional Hubs across the nation, focusing on datascience innovation and partnership building. Then, in October 2016, NSF announced selections for BigData Spoke projects and planning grants to work in concert with the BD Hubs. These travel funds will support participants to attend the first workshop on the hubs and spokes. This proposal aims to establish an open-attendance workshop at IPDPS (IEEE International Parallel & Distributed Processing Symposium) 2017 and fund fifteen individuals. Those funded will primarily be workshop presenters, including spokes and planning grant PIs or Co-PIs, considered based on their experience, research breadth and relevance to the event, diversity, and interdisciplinary blend. The invited talks and posters will come from PIs and collaborators on BD Hubs and spokes projects, and will highlight the current research-related activities facilitated by the BD Hubs. The audience for this workshop will include researchers interested in partnering with the BD Hubs and spokes on topics of interest as well as meeting Hub members within their geographic area. This is the first workshop on the hubs and spokes and will showcase NSF's considerable effort to a large and relevant audience. It is a unique and interdisciplinary event spanning several topics deemed a high priority by members of the research community from across the country during the formation and extension of the national network of big data hubs. A successful workshop will enhance visibility of research related to the big data spokes projects, increase participation and enthusiasm for hub-related activities in the South and nationally, and create an expanded network of experts, members, and partners of the hubs. It will also stimulate networking and recruitment of potential collaborators for current and future work in the program, and magnify outreach related to hub-related research, education, community-based resources.

2015 年，NSF 拨款 600 万美元在全国建立四个区域中心，重点关注数据科学创新和伙伴关系建设。然后，在 2016 年 10 月，NSF 宣布选择 BigData Spoke 项目，并计划拨款与 BD 中心合作。这些旅行资金将支持参与者参加第一届关于中心和辐条的研讨会。该提案旨在在 2017 年 IPDPS（IEEE 国际并行与分布式处理研讨会）上建立一个开放式研讨会，并资助 15 名个人。获得资助的人员将主要是研讨会的演讲者，包括发言人和规划资助 PI 或 Co-PI，根据他们的经验、研究广度和与活动的相关性、多样性和跨学科融合进行考虑。 受邀演讲和海报将来自 BD 中心和辐条项目的 PI 和合作者，并将重点介绍 BD 中心推动的当前研究相关活动。本次研讨会的受众将包括有兴趣与 BD 中心合作的研究人员，并就感兴趣的主题发表演讲，以及会见其地理区域内的中心成员。 这是关于中心和辐条的第一次研讨会，并将向大量相关观众展示 NSF 的巨大努力。这是一次独特的跨学科活动，涵盖了全国大数据中心网络形成和扩展过程中全国研究界成员认为高度优先的多个主题。 成功的研讨会将提高与大数据辐条项目相关的研究的知名度，增加南方和全国范围内与中心相关活动的参与度和热情，并创建一个扩大的中心专家、成员和合作伙伴网络。它还将促进该计划当前和未来工作的潜在合作者的网络和招募，并扩大与中心相关的研究、教育和社区资源相关的外展。
