Theoretical Foundations 2006 (TF06): One of the defining features of the new CISE organization is the introduction of clusters; cohesive units formed by combining several (partial) programs that share a common theme and/or have significant overlap. Theoretical Foundations (TF) is a cluster within the Computing and Communications Foundation (CCF) division of CISE. Projects supported in the TF cluster address fundamental issues of information science and technology, both within Computation and Communication, and also at the interface between these, and other disciplines. A new focus this year highlights research efforts for the Internet's next generation, part of the NSF/CISE initiative for the new Internet. The cluster encompasses the research areas covered by the former programs: communications research, numeric symbolic graphic computation, signal processing, and theory of computing. For the foreseeable future, TF will continue to encourage the submission of proposals from the research communities that were served formerly by these programs. The TF cluster is broadly concerned with problems of information processing that fall between the extremes of purely theoretical studies and of applications within a discipline. Projects sponsored by the cluster advance the foundations of computer science, communication theory, signal processing theory, scientific computing, mathematics, and application areas, and some will apply core theory to fundamental problems throughout science and engineering. Investigators are encouraged to formulate high impact proposals that depart from traditional problem definitions. Proposals should address one or more of the areas described in the body of this solicitation: Scientific Foundations of Computing; Scientific Foundations of Communication; a new focus, Scientific Foundations for the Internet's Next Generation (SING). The cluster encourages investigators to include in their proposals innovative curricula or educational materials to help advance the training of new experts in theoretical foundations of computing and communication.
