CISE invites you to attend an information meeting and webinar to announce and answer questions concerning its recently released solicitation, Future Internet Architecture-Next Phase (FIA-NP: NSF 13-538) on Monday, February 11, 2013, 1:00 PM to 2:30 PM EDT. You must register at https://mmancusa.webex.com/mmancusa/j.php?ED=200243927&RG=1&... to participate.
CISE plans to support research that builds upon its current investments in Future Internet Architectures (FIA) with the Future Internet Architecture-Next Phase (FIA-NP) solicitation. Proposals are expected to specify research activities that will take existing FIA designs from basic components that have been integrated into early prototypes that demonstrate architectural principles and requirements to more sophisticated architectures with demonstrated prototype systems.
The FIA-NP information meeting will be held February 11, 2013, 1:00PM - 2:30PM EST (10:00 - 11:30 PST)
You may attend the informational meeting either on site or via live webinar.
On site: Please come to room 110 at the National Science Foundation, 4201 Wilson Blvd., Arlington, VA. No badges are needed to attend on site.

Sepehr Khosravi discusses the current state of AI-assisted coding, moving beyond basic autocompletion to sophisticated agentic workflows. He explains the technical nuances of Cursor’s "Composer" and Claude Code’s research capabilities, providing tips for managing context windows and MCP integrations. He shares lessons from industry leaders on shrinking process time beyond just writing code.

Work isn’t the only place where you can develop valuable leadership skills, Sophie Weston mentioned in the video The Principal Engineer’s Path from her QCon London talk. She suggested thinking about the things you do outside of your job where you can learn and practice useful leadership skills, and bringing your full skill set - your whole self - to work.

In this article, the author explores how hierarchical agentic RAG systems coordinate specialized workers through structured orchestration to improve accuracy, reliability, and explainability in complex enterprise analytics workflows. The article uses Protocol-H as a to show how deterministic routing, reflective retry, and modality-aware reasoning support safer multi-source query execution.

Google has released the open-source Colab MCP Server, enabling AI agents to directly interact with Google Colab through the Model Context Protocol (MCP). The project is designed to bridge local agent workflows with cloud-based execution, allowing developers to offload compute-intensive or potentially unsafe tasks from their own machines.
