The National Science Foundation (NSF) Computer and Information Science and Engineering (CISE) program awarded a $285,843 Project Grant to the University of Louisville to renew its Research Experiences for Undergraduates (REU) site in Computer Systems Research. This 3-year grant will support an 8-week summer research program hosting 8 undergraduate students per year, providing them hands-on research experiences working with faculty mentors on topics related to computer architecture, operating systems, Internet of Things (IoT), embedded systems, and distributed machine learning. The REU site aims to build theoretical and practical knowledge in computer systems for students from institutions with limited research opportunities, potentially inspiring them to pursue advanced computer science degrees. The project advances state-of-the-art computer systems research in areas like energy-efficient mobile/edge computing, storage systems, and explainable AI algorithms. This award reflects NSF's mission to support transformative research and education with potential for broader societal impacts.
