Workshop on Computer Science/Applied Math Institutes and High Risk / High Payoff Technologies for Applications

The workshop focused on two aspects or tracks.  One was how the Applied Mathematicts and Computer Science communities could help make potential high risk/high payoff areas in their application domains a reality.  Since the concept of joint math and CS institutes is a a new one, the second track focused on how the community's could create, develop, and manage joint CS/Math Institutes.
