NOTICE OF PUBLIC MEETING FOR
FOCUSED PROGRAM COMPETITION

March 4, 1998
Gaithersburg, MD

Introduction

The NIST Advanced Technology Program (ATP) is soliciting proposals under the following focused program competition and announces a public meeting (Proposers' Conference) for all interested parties:

98-09, Adaptive Learning Systems

On March 4, Program Managers from the Advanced Technology Program (ATP) of the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) will be at NIST facilities in Gaithersburg, MD to present details to potential bidders for ATP's R&D dollars. The session will include an overview of the ATP program and detailed suggestions on how to write a competitive proposal. A breakout session will follow on this newly announced ATP focused program competition.

The Adaptive Learning Systems Focused Program (new for 1998) seeks comprehensive solutions which recognize that, in order to properly address learner requirements, instructional technologies must be more flexible and scalable with respect to net-centric, Web-based instruction. Research funded through this program is expected to yield significant advances in authoring systems, multi-sensory interfaces, search technology, instructional system frameworks, and network middleware (including software reusability and interoperability) as applied to support diverse training and education tasks. Full proposals are due on May 13th. For detailed information on this program contact Richard Morris at (301) 975-4695.

The conference will be held on Wednesday, March 4, 1998 and is to begin at 9:30 a.m. local time at NIST, Administration Bldg. (101), Green Auditorium, Quince Orchard & Clopper Roads Gaithersburg, MD 20899-0001; tel: 1-800-ATP-FUND; fax: 301-926-9524; e-mail: atp@nist.gov.

This meeting will provide general information regarding the ATP, tips on preparing good proposals, and an opportunity for audience questions on the scope, technical, and business goals of this 98-09 focused program. Attendance at these public meetings is not required. No registration fee will be charged. To register for a public meeting or for further information, contact ATP as noted above.
