Project Award Information

• Award Number: IIS-ddddddd (d = digit)
• Duration: mm1/dd1/yyyy1 -- mm2/dd2/yyyy2 Period of Performance of the entire project, e.g., 10/01/1999 - 9/30/2002. It is the time interval, beginning with the starting date of the award, mm1/dd1/yyyy1, ending with the (estimated) expiration date of the award, mm2/dd2/yyyy2; the start date, mm1/dd1/yyyy1, and the award period, p, (e.g., p = 3 years) can be found in the award letter sent to the sponsored research office. The expiration date, mm2/dd2/yyyy2, can be derived by adding p to mm1/dd1/yyyy1. If the award duration has been extended after the award has been made, the new expiration date should be used. ^*
• Title: Title of the project

Keywords

Keywords that describe your project (about 6).

Project Summary

A short, one paragraph summary that presents the goals of the project.

(This might be your project summary, updated to reflect any new goals included in last year's report resulting from the work during the performance period of 10/01/1998 - 10/30/1999.)

Publications and Products

Describe the tangible products coming out of your project. Specifically:

• What have you published as a result of this work?
• Journal/conference publications
• Books or other non-periodical, one-time publications
• What Web sites or other Internet site have you created?
• What other specific products (databases, physical collections, educational aids, software, instruments, or the like) have you developed?

Project Impact

Include a brief discussion on the impact of the project on:

• Human Resources (student participation -- graduate and undergraduate, minorities, persons with disabilities, women), directly funded students, degrees awarded and placement record.
• Education and curriculum development at all levels.
• Your department/institution infrastructure
• Industry -- collaborations, transfer of technology, patents.

The impact, if any, should be REAL and NATURAL, not just trying to provide phrases to satisfy the bullets above.

Goals, Objectives, and Targeted Activities

This should be an overview of the ongoing research, concentrating on the performance period of 10/01/1998 - 9/30/1999, and next year's goals (if applicable).

Project References

Reference papers or other sources of more information about your project (e.g., on-line demos, availability of the data/software for downloading, etc.). Each reference should be separated by a blank line, including annotated URLs as appropriate.

Area Background

Here, we'd like you to write a very brief introduction to your discipline (a couple of paragraphs). The technical level should be suitable for someone from a different discipline but with some familiarity with the IDM topics. Primarily, this introduction should help the interested researchers to understand your area and how it could relate to his/her own work. Include annotated URLs as appropriate.

Area References

Provide a short list of your favorite references you'd recommend to someone from

a different discipline who would like to learn more about your field.

Each reference should be separated by a blank line. Include annotated URLs as appropriate.
