Harnessing the Data Revolution (HDR): Institutes for Data-Intensive Research in Science and Engineering – Frameworks (I-DIRSE-FW)

More info: https://www.nsf.gov/pubs/2019/nsf19549/nsf19549.htm

Full Proposal Deadline: May 7, 2019

Harnessing the Data Revolution (HDR) Institutes will be developed through a two-phase process:  conceptualization and convergence. The conceptualization phase will be implemented in FY 2019 via two complementary funding opportunities.

The first opportunity will encourage individuals with compelling data-intensive science and engineering problems and/or technical expertise to self-organize into teams with the aim of developing innovative, collaborative research proposals through an Ideas Lab process.

See Harnessing the Data Revolution (HDR): Transdisciplinary Research in Principles of Data Science Phase I (HDR TRIPODS Phase I) for a description of phase 1.

The second opportunity, described in this solicitation, will encourage applications from teams of researchers proposing frameworks for integrated sets of science and engineering problems and data science solutions.

This solicitation is for Frameworks for Data-Intensive Research in Science and Engineering (DIRSE) as part of the HDR Institutes activity.

The HDR Institutes activity seeks to create interrelated institutes that can accelerate discovery and innovation in multiple areas of data-intensive science and engineering. The HDR Institutes will achieve this by harnessing diverse data sources and developing and applying new methodologies, technologies, and infrastructure for data management and analysis.
