This award funds a visioning workshop with the goal of bringing together leading researchers and practitioners in computing systems (architecture, operating systems, languages/compilers) to reflect on the research progress in the overlapped areas of the three fields and to discuss the grand challenges for the fields so that they can rise to meet the demands of modern computing in synergy.The workshop will have focused discussions in the context of four important application domains: Internet of Things (IoT)/infrastructure, augmenting Human Abilities/Artificial Intelligence, security and privacy, and complexity management/environment. It will discuss how inter-disciplinary research in computing systems could help meet the grand challenges in these domains, such as the lack of principles and techniques that reliably and efficiently support large and heterogeneous ensembles of IoT devices and humans, the safety and efficiency barriers facing the deployment of Artificial Intelligence, and the vulnerabilities in both hardware and software that threaten to undermine security and privacy.The principal investigators, along with workshop participants, will produce a detailed workshop report that will outline the grand challenges and promising directions for the further development of inter-disciplinary research in computing systems. The report will be made be publicly available through the internet as well as professional journals and magazines.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.

该奖项为远见的研讨会提供了资金，其目的是将计算系统（体系结构，操作系统，语言，语言/编译器）领域的主要研究人员和从业人员汇集在一起​​，以反思三个领域重叠领域的研究进度（物联网）/基础设施，增强人类能力/人工智能，安全和隐私以及复杂性管理/环境。它将讨论计算系统中的跨学科研究如何帮助应对这些领域中的巨大挑战，例如缺乏原则和技术，这些原则和技术可靠，有效地支持物联网设备和人类的大型且异构性的合并，以及面临人工智能和软件的部署的安全性，以及威胁性的安全性，使人的安全性以及使人的安全性以及威胁性的安全性，使其威胁到范围。研讨会的参与者将制作一份详细的研讨会报告，该报告将概述巨大的挑战和有希望的方向，以进一步发展计算系统中学科研究。该报告将通过互联网以及专业的期刊和杂志公开获得。该奖项反映了NSF的法定任务，并使用基金会的知识分子优点和更广泛的影响审查标准，被认为值得通过评估来获得支持。
