The NSF Workshop on Sustainable Computing for Sustainability has just released a virtual registration link to attend the workshop remotely on April 16-17, 2024. This workshop, which the CCC’s own Chandra Krintz is on the steering committee for, seeks to identify open challenges in how to harness computing to tackle sustainability problems, and in ensuring that computing accounts for sustainability in its own development and operation. Due to space limitations, the workshop will follow a hybrid format with approximately 100 in-person attendees at the National Science Foundation’s headquarters in Alexandria, VA, and remote participation feasible through a zoom webinar. Please use this link to register to attend remotely. The deadline […]
Computing Community Consortium Blog
The goal of the Computing Community Consortium (CCC) is to catalyze the computing research community to debate longer range, more audacious research challenges; to build consensus around research visions; to evolve the most promising visions toward clearly defined initiatives; and to work with the funding organizations to move challenges and visions toward funding initiatives. The purpose of this blog is to provide a more immediate, online mechanism for dissemination of visioning concepts and community discussion/debate about them.

May 18th, 2023 / in Announcements, climate / by Maddy HunterThe following is a joint Dear Colleague Letter from eight Assistant Directors at the National Science Foundation – Susan S. Margulies (Directorate for Engineering), Sean L. Jones (Directorate for Mathematical and Physical Sciences), Simon Malcomber (Directorate for Biological Sciences), Margaret Martonosi (Directorate for Computer and Information Science and Engineering), Alexandra R. Isern (Directorate for Geosciences), Sylvia M. Butterfield (Directorate for Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences), James L. Moore III (Directorate for STEM Education) and Erwin Gianchandani (Directorate for Technology, Innovation and Partnerships). With this DCL, the National Science Foundation (NSF) invites interdisciplinary groups of Principal Investigators (PIs) to develop potentially transformative, convergent, fundamental research proposals in the area of clean energy […]
Building Resilience to Climate Driven Extreme Events with Computing Innovations Report Released by the CCC
January 24th, 2023 / in Announcements, CCC, climate, NSF / by Catherine GillThe Computing Community Consortium (CCC) has submitted a community report to the National Science Foundation (NSF) for a new Convergence Accelerator track on the topic of “Building Resilience to Climate Driven Extreme Events with Computing Innovations”. The NSF’s Convergence Accelerator program, which was launched in 2019, aims to bring together researchers from diverse disciplines to collaborate on and expedite solutions to outstanding societal problems. Every year the Convergence Accelerator program accepts proposals from the community to identify Convergence Accelerator tracks for the next year. The NSF then funds workshops on some of these research tracks to allow these ideas to be fleshed out among researchers from various backgrounds. The […]
