Expeditions in Computing (Expeditions)
Funds NSF's largest computing awards — up to $15 million over seven years for a research agenda that looks a decade ahead.
Expeditions is the biggest single investment NSF's computing directorate makes. Four awards are expected against a $60 million pool, funded at up to $15 million each over seven years.
The brief is unusually explicit about ambition. NSF asks teams to come together across departments or institutions and identify a research agenda that looks ahead by at least a decade and promises disruptive change …
Ambitious, centre-scale foundational research across computer and information science and engineering, with an agenda looking at least a decade ahead — new architectures for intelligence and their compute substrates, theories of learning and generalisation, neuroscience-inspired approaches, embodied and physical intelligence, next-generation networking, and high-risk areas no one discipline can reach.
