View on Grants.gov Funding Opportunity Number: PD-12-1639 Opportunity Category: Discretionary Funding Instrument Type: Grant Category of Funding Activity: Science and Technology and other Research and Development CFDA Number: 47.041 Eligible Applicants Unrestricted (i.e., open to any type of entity above), subject to any clarification in text field entitled "Additional Information on Eligibility" Agency Name: NSF Closing Date: Oct 07, 2012 Award Ceiling: Expected Number of Awards: 0 Creation Date: May 29, 2012 Funding Opportunity Description: The Sensors and Sensing System (SSS) program funds fundamental research on sensors and sensing systems. Such fundamental research includes the discovery and characterization of new sensing modalities, fundamental theories for aggregation and analysis of sensed data, fundamentally new approaches for data transmission, and approaches for addressing uncertain and/or partial sensor data. Innovative research in nonlinear prediction, filtering and estimation in the context of sensing systems is also considered in this program. The program does not fund developmental projects, such as sensor development or applications studies. Proposals offering fundamental research topics that are enabled by sensor development or sensor system development should be submitted to the relevant CMMI program in which the fundamental research contribution is being made. In such a case, the SSS program should be listed as a secondary program. Proposals that do not address CMMI relevant research should be submitted to programs in the appropriate division within NSF. - International Collaboration in Chemistry between US Investigators and their Counterparts Abroad [...]
