  1. Panel at the 2nd US-China CS Leadership Summit CommunityLeadership to Support Computer Science Research Hai Jin, Huazhong University of Science and Technology

  2. Questions • To what extent is this "bottom-up" vs. "top-down"? • To what extent does funding emphasis lead research or vice versa? • What is the role of practical applications? • Can industry influence the direction of research in universities? If so, how? • What is a role for US-China collaborations in shaping the research agenda for computer science?

  3. To what extent is this "bottom-up" vs. "top-down"? • First, bottom-up, suggestions and proposals collected • Workshop discussion, form the initial cfp • Finally, top-down, cfp

  4. To what extent does funding emphasis lead research or vice versa? • Fundamental basic research from NSFC and 973 program from MOST • For 973 program, 3 categories of projects are supported • For A category, each project is less than 15M with 1-2 participant units • For B category, each project is less than 30M with at most 8 participant units • For C category, each project is less than 50M with at most 8 participant units

  5. What is the role of practical applications? • In MOST, there are two kinds of practical application program • 863 target-directed program, range from several M to dozens of M, leading with research unit or industry • S&T Supporting program, ranging from dozens of M to hundreds of M

  6. Can industry influence the direction of research in universities? If so, how? • Most international industry research lab has great influence to the research in China, such as Intel, IBM, MSRA, EMC, Google • For some large domestic industries, to some extend, has also great influence to the research in China, such as Huawei, China Mobile, UTStarcom, ZTE, Inspur, Lenovo, Tencent, Baidu

  7. What is a role for US-China collaborations in shaping the research agenda for computer science? • Exchange research idea, inspiring creative thinking, get to know each other about the research topics • Focus on some common interests after each summit, and support the real collaboration between US and China
