Harnessing
the Data Revolution (HDR): Institutes for Data-Intensive Research in Science and
Engineering - Ideas Labs (I-DIRSE-IL); June 19, 2019
Agency
National
Science Foundation
Description
NSF’s
Harnessing the Data Revolution (HDR) Big Idea is a
national-scale activity to enable new modes of data-driven discovery that will
allow fundamental questions to be asked and answered at the frontiers of
science and engineering. Through this NSF-wide activity, HDR will generate new
knowledge and understanding, and accelerate discovery and innovation. The HDR
vision is realized through an interrelated set of efforts
in:
·
Foundations
of data science;
·
Algorithms
and systems for data science;
·
Data-intensive
science and engineering;
·
Data
cyberinfrastructure; and
·
Education
and workforce development.
Each
of these efforts is designed to amplify the intrinsically multidisciplinary
nature of the emerging field of data science. The HDR Big Idea will establish
theoretical, technical, and ethical frameworks that will be applied to tackle
data-intensive problems in science and engineering, contributing to data-driven
decision-making that impacts society.
This
solicitation describes one or more Ideas Lab(s) on Data-Intensive Research in
Science and Engineering (DIRSE) as part of the HDR Institutes activity. These
Ideas Labs represent one path of a conceptualization phase aimed at developing
Institutes as part of the NSF investment in the HDR Big
Idea.
