Title
U.S. National Science Foundation program managers: perspectives on sustaining digital government research
Abstract
Two champions of digital government research will offer perspectives and ideas for helping to sustain digital government research at the U.S. National Science Foundation. There are changes in solicitations and new opportunities for researchers wishing to undertake research in the digital government domain.The Information and Intelligent Systems Division at NSF is being reorganized into new clusters of research domains. There will most likely be a cluster tentatively entitled "Informatics and Information Integration (III). Members from the old program days incorporated into the new cluster include: Digital Government (DG); Digital Libraries and Archives; Science and Engineering Informatics and Information Integration (SEI); and, Information, Data and Knowledge Management.Slicing the III cluster another way, there will be "core" research in these areas and "contextual" research. The latter is what SEI and DG have been doing, that is, bringing the CS research out of the lab and into various application areas (contexts). Proposers will be asked to identify their submissions as core or contextual.Other clusters within the IIS Division are: Human Centered Computing - from Programs in Digital Society and Technologies, Human-Computer Interaction, and Universal Access; Robust Intelligence - from Programs in Artificial Intelligence and Cognitive Systems, Computer Vision, Human Language and Communication, and RoboticsThere will also be two Division-wide themes, Human-Robot Interaction and Information Security and Privacy.The title of the Division-Wide call for proposals (encompassing all three clusters) is basically just the names of the three clusters combined. The IIS Division/NSF hope is to release the call in May, with proposals due in October.
