6 WHAT LED TO THE CCC? In the mid-2000 s, NSF CISE leaders and computing research community leaders had concerns regarding: The Federal commitment to research in general, and to computing research in particular Public and policymaker perception that computer science is yesterday s news Failure to articulate and coalesce around exciting research visions in computer science research visions that would galvanize the public, policymakers, researchers, and students Need to groom leadership for the field Decrease in student interest GENI Project direction

7 A BRIEF HISTORY Established in 2006 as a programmatic committee of the Computing Research Association Initially funded under a cooperative agreement in response to a call from NSF Second Award began in 2012, completed Reverse Site Visit in Spring, 2014 Founding chair Ed Lazowska, co-chair Susan Graham Council and leadership rotation initiated 2013 Hager chair, Mynatt vice-chair since July 2014 Drobnis Executive Director since March 2013

8 THE CCC MISSION The mission of Compu2ng Research Associa2on's Compu2ng Community Consor2um (CCC) is to: catalyze the compu2ng research community and enable the pursuit of innova2ve, high- impact research. CCC conducts ac2vi2es that strengthen the research community, ar6culate compelling research visions, and align those visions with pressing na6onal and global challenges. CCC communicates the importance of those visions to policymakers, government and industry stakeholders, the public, and the research community itself.

9 CCC GOALS Visioning Connec6ng Leadership Communica6on Establish the CCC as a widely accepted catalyst and voice for the compu2ng research community. Bring the compu2ng research community together to envision our future research needs and thrusts. Communicate these challenges, needs and thrusts to the broader na2onal community. Create within the compu2ng research community more audacious thinking. See the ideas developed in the second and fourth points above turned into funded research programs.

30 QUESTIONS?

31 VISIONING

32 CREATING VISIONS FOR COMPUTING RESEARCH The Computing Community Consortium (CCC) solicits proposals that will galvanize the community to define visions and agendas for exciting frontiers of computing research. Create a new community of researchers. Justify a new funding initiative. Help an extant community define a new trajectory.

33 VISIONING PROCESSES Periodic RFP for Community Initiated Activities Historically 3-7 workshops per year Top-down (agency initiated) Bottom-up (open call) Sideways (council initiated, joint with other agencies,.) Robo2cs Spa2al Compu2ng Online Educa2on Privacy R&D Uncertainty in Computa2on

34 SUCCESSFUL VISIONING ACTIVITIES Engage the community and relevant stakeholders Facilitate broad thinking with compelling examples Create new avenues for (interdisciplinary) collaboration Prepare and energize the community for future opportunities Rapidly capture and synthesize ideas from the community. Present ideas and engage possible funders and stakeholders Articulate needs and barriers to research impact Produce tangible products to be used in dissemination efforts: vision statement, summary of key findings, workshop report, slide deck

35 2015 VISIONING ACTIVITIES Extensible Distributed Systems Privacy by Design State of Research and Practice Privacy by Design Privacy Enabling Design Theoretical Foundations for Social Computing Industry Roundtable Privacy by Design Engineering Privacy Promoting Strategic Research on Inclusive Access to Rich Online Content and Services Computer-Aided Personalized Education Privacy by Design Regulation as Catalyst

38 COMPUTING VISIONS 2025 Joint Venture of NSF CISE Advisory Committee and CCC Articulate future trends and opportunities in computing research. Envision evolution and growth over the next 10 to 15 years. 3 Initial Workshops: Interacting with the Computers All Around Us Looked at how technology could change how computers interface with people and the world around them. The New Making Renaissance: Programmable Matter & Things Explored the way items are designed, programmed, manufactured, and delivered/deployed. Visions 2025 Roundtable Looked at research themes that emerged from the first two 2025 workshops and pulled insights from a number of relevant CCC workshops.

39 WHAT CCC BRINGS TO THIS TABLE Speak with proposers who contact CCC before submitting a proposal Once a proposal is submitted, the Visioning Committee works with proposers to sharpen the idea Full Council reviews proposals, offering suggestions to further strengthen the activity or determine that activity is not feasible (missing the WOW factor) CCC Liaison appointed for each workshop: Becomes part of Organizing Committee Tracks logistics Attends workshop (as an observer) Provides feedback on outputs as they are being produced, and Exerts pressure when outputs are not being produced.

40 THE WORKFLOW Visioning Chair (VC) or delegate iterates with PIs to produce a plausible proposal. Proposal sent to entire CCC. All return short-fuse (i.e. 2 weeks) comments. VC synthesizes feedback and creates the case: yes/no/revise: Includes all reviews, but with identifying information deleted plus a short summary VC sends the case to CCC. VC leads a discussion by CCC of the case. VC sends response to PI s, including anonymized reviews discussion of required changes name of CCC liaison for the case

41 BLUE SKY IDEAS CONFERENCE TRACKS Special Blue Sky Ideas tracks at leading conferences Reach beyond usual papers CCC provides prize money for top 3 papers Papers should be: open-ended outrageous or wacky Present new problems, new application domains or new methodologies Relatively short (4 pages) Published after the conference

42 DETAILS Conference Organizers write a proposal, indicating how papers will be solicited and reviewed Blue Sky Chair and Director read proposals and determine viability Once Track is approved, a CCC liaison is assigned VC Chair or liaison may attend the Conference to present information about the CCC and the awards

61 COMPUTING INNOVATION FELLOWS PROJECT -> POSTDOC BEST PRACTICES Request for Proposals PostDoc Best Practices 9/30/13 11:49 PM Search Request for Proposals (RFP) Implementation of Best Practices for Supporting Postdocs PDF Version In recent years, new PhD s in the CS&E community have increasingly chosen postdoc training assignments in their pursuit of research careers. Large numbers of postdocs in CS&E are a new phenomenon for us. Our community has an opportunity, as a field, to institutionalize a set of best practices, drawn from our own experience and that of postdocs in other fields and to establish a culture that provides postdocs a superb enriching experience that launches their research careers. The Computing Community Consortium (CCC), a committee of the Computing Research Association (CRA), is requesting proposals for research to improve training programs for postdocs in the Computer and Information Science and Engineering (CS&E) community. This RFP seeks proposals to pursue innovations that will make lasting changes to improve the postdoc experience. Innovations
