Dear Colleague:
The CISE Division of Computer and Network Systems recently released a
new program solicitation for Computer Systems Research (CSR), NSF 04-609.
The CSR program supports innovative research and education projects that
will lead to better computer systems by increasing our fundamental understanding
of such systems and by producing better systems software. CSR also supports
the development of innovative curricular materials that have the potential
greatly to improve higher education on computer systems topics.
The CSR program replaces and expands three previous programs. It is organized
into four topical areas: Embedded and Hybrid Systems (EHS), Parallel and
Distributed Operating Systems (PDOS), Advanced Execution Systems (AES),
and Systems Modeling and Analysis (SMA).
We encourage you to read the CSR
solicitation and to submit your best ideas. If you have questions, the
primary NSF contact point for the EHS area is Helen Gill (hgill@nsf.gov);
the primary contact for the PDOS area is Brett Fleisch (bfleisch@nsf.gov);
and the primary contact for the AES and SMA areas is Frederica Darema
(fdarema@nsf.gov).
Sincerely,
Gregory R. Andrews
Division Director
Computer and Network Systems
