Cyber-Enabled Discovery and Innovation
Program
Cyber-Enabled Discovery and Innovations (CDI) is NSF's bold
five-year initiative to create revolutionary science and engineering
research outcomes made possible by innovations and advances in
computational thinking. Computational thinking is defined
comprehensively to encompass computational concepts, methods, models,
algorithms, and tools. Applied in challenging science and
engineering research and educational contexts, computational thinking
promises a profound impact on the Nation's ability to generate and
apply new knowledge. Collectively, CDI research outcomes are
expected to produce paradigm shifts on out understanding of a wide
range of science and engineering phenomena and socio-technical
innovations that create new wealth and enhance the national quality of
life.
CDI's Three Thematic Areas
- From Data to Knowledge: Enhancing human cognition and generating new knowledge from a wealth of heterogeneous digital data
- Understanding Complexity in Natural, Built, and Social Systems: Driving fundamental insights on systems comprising multiple interacting elements; and
- Building Virtual Organizations: enhancing discovery and innovation by bringing people and resources together across institutional, geographical and cultural boundaries.
