Information and Intelligent Systems

NSF’s Division of Information and Intelligent Systems intends to fund science and engineering research and education projects that develop new knowledge in the following three core technical areas:Human-Centered Computing (HCC);Information Integration and Informatics (III); andRobust Intelligence (RI).In addition to the three core technical areas, IIS will support research in two cross-cutting technical areas:Human-Robot (and/or Agents) Interaction (HRI); and Information Privacy and Security (IPS).IIS also intends to fund curriculum development (IISCD) activities that have the potential to greatly improve higher education in IIS core and cross-cutting areas. Projects should result in new knowledge and prepare future generations of professionals in IIS areas of research and education.To ensure that proposals with roughly comparable scope and objectives are reviewed together, IIS proposals are divided into three classes by budget size:Small Projects (up to $450,000 total budget);Medium Projects ($450,001 to $900,000 total budget); andLarge Projects ($900,001 to $1,800,000 total budget).Proposals with budgets that exceed $1,800,000 will be returned without review.
