> (NetSE)
> as a cross-cutting research program. NetSE is a highly
> inter-disciplinary research program, focused on understanding networks
> broadly and at multiple levels of abstraction from the physical
> substrates through the architecture and protocols, to network of
> people,
> organizations and societies. Driven by the belief that transformative
> advances in a field often come from research at the intersection of
> multiple areas or disciplines, NetSE encourages collaborations among
> researchers in multiple areas of computer and information science, as
> well as with researchers in other relevant fields such as engineering,
> mathematics, economics, and the social sciences.

>
> The purpose of the informational meeting is for CISE to inform the
> different research communities about NetSE and share with the
> participants the goals and scope of this multidisciplinary program.
> The
> meeting will include presentations by NSF/CISE members and by lead
> researchers, who will report on-going NetSE workshops. The meeting
> will
> enable attendees to gain better understanding of NetSE's objectives
> and
> scope and will also provide a forum to discuss and foster potential
> collaboration among researchers from the different disciplines.
