The 2022 NSF CSSI PI meeting aims to further build the community around the NSF CSSI and its precursor programs (DIBBs, SI2) towards a sustainable data and software cyberinfrastructure. The meeting provides a forum for CSSI PIs to:

  • share technical information about their projects with others including NSF program directors;
  • explore innovative topics emerging in the software and data infrastructure communities;
  • discuss and learn about best practices across projects;
  • consider ways to ensure a diverse pipeline of CI researchers and professionals;
  • investigate new ideas of achieving software and data sustainability.

At least one representative (PI/Co-PI/senior personnel) from each active CSSI project is required by NSF to attend the meeting and present a poster on their project. For a collaborative project with multiple awards, one representative from the entire project is required. There is no registration fee, but participants should register by the deadline July 7, 2022 to allow for planning logistics such as space and food. We plan to livestream the talks and panel discussions via Zoom.

Poster details
Each active CSSI project is expected to present a poster on the project at the PI meeting. You will need to print out and bring a physical copy of your poster on your own; we cannot print posters on site. Collaborative projects (including across multiple institutions) should only bring one poster.
Each poster presenter will be assigned one side of a horizontal, cloth-covered poster board. The poster board dimensions are 72 inches (183 cm) wide and 48 inches (122 cm) tall and you are free to fill that space however you see fit. We will provide pushpins. Please include your project award name, award number, and PI/co-PI names. Posters left after the meeting will be recycled.
Posterboard examples
Local printers
While we do not specifically endorse these businesses, here are three options in the Old Town Alexandria area if you wish to have your poster printed locally:

FedEx Office Print & Ship Center, 685 N Washington St, Alexandria, VA 22314

  • This is the closest printer to the hotel/venue OPEN ON SUNDAYS (12:00 - 6:00 PM).
  • Minimum 24 hour turn around time. Submit your file through their website.
  • Max width is 42 inches; length can be any size. Ensure your file is sized to your desired size or there will be additional costs.
  • Pick up at their location (no weekend delivery). Located ~30 minute walk/10 minute cab ride from hotel/venue.

MinuteMan Press of Alexandria, 1429A Duke St, Alexandria, VA 22314

AlphaGraphics Old Town Alexandria, 1001 North Fairfax St, Suite 100A, Alexandria, VA 22314

Digital upload
We will use Zenodo to share the posters digitally. Please follow these steps to upload your poster by July 18, 2022:
  1. Create or log into your Zenodo account.
  2. Once logged in, follow this link to the 2022 NSF CSSI PI Meeting Community upload page.
  3. Follow the file upload instructions.
  4. Verify that the 2022 NSF CSSI PI Meeting Community is listed under the "Communities" section.
  5. Set the "Upload type" to poster.
  6. Complete the "Basic information" section.
  7. For "License", we recommend selecting "CC 4.0 International" (which should be the default).
  8. Add your NSF award # to the "Funding" section. note: There have been reports of this feature not working correctly. If your award does not come up, add to the "additional notes" field in the "basic information" section.
  9. Click "Publish".
  10. The meeting organizers will be notified by email of your submission and approve your upload.

Lightning Talk Schedule

To optimize time for in-person interaction, we will limit lightning talks to recently-funded (2020-present) projects that did not have a chance to present a lightning talk at previous CSSI PI meetings. These projects will give a one-minute lightning talk to introduce their poster.

Code of Conduct

The 2022 NSF CSSI PI Meeting is an interactive environment for listening and considering new ideas from a diverse group, with respect for all participants without regard to gender, gender identity or expression, race, color, national or ethnic origin, religion or religious belief, age, marital status, sexual orientation, disabilities, veteran status, or any other aspect of how we identify ourselves. It is the policy of the 2022 NSF CSSI PI Meeting that all participants will enjoy an environment free from all forms of discrimination, harassment, and retaliation.

Definition of Sexual Harassment:
Sexual harassment refers to unwelcome sexual advances, requests for sexual favors, and other verbal or physical conduct of a sexual nature. Behavior and language that are welcome/acceptable to one person may be unwelcome/offensive to another. Consequently, individuals must use discretion to ensure that their words and actions communicate respect for others. This is especially important for those in positions of authority since individuals with lower rank or status may be reluctant to express their objections or discomfort regarding unwelcome behavior.

Sexual harassment does not refer to occasional compliments of a socially acceptable nature. It refers to behavior that is not welcome, is personally offensive, debilitates morale, and therefore, interferes with work effectiveness. The following are examples of behavior that, when unwelcome, may constitute sexual harassment: sexual flirtations, advances, or propositions; verbal comments or physical actions of a sexual nature; sexually degrading words used to describe an individual; a display of sexually suggestive objects or pictures; sexually explicit jokes; unnecessary touching.
Definition of Other Harassment:
Harassment on the basis of any other protected characteristic is also strictly prohibited.

COVID-19 Considerations

Updated as of July 14, 2022

We will follow all required federal, state, and local guidelines to make sure the meeting is as safe as possible. The organizing committee, in coordination with NSF program officers, will carefully monitor the situation and adjust recommended safety precautions as necessary based on the latest information.

In order to promote a safe environment for meeting participants, we will implement the following health and safety measures:

  • Require participants to wear masks while in meeting spaces (other than while eating/drinking)
  • Provide hand sanitizer and surgical masks for all participants (welcome to bring your own from home)
  • Ensure that hotel staff entering the meeting space are masked
  • Offer designated spaces for taking meals/breaks to accommodate different comfort levels of congregating and consuming while unmasked

All participants should monitor their own health status each morning before the meeting as well as during the meeting. Should you not feel well, please remain in/return to your hotel room.

If you experience symptoms associated with COVID-19, consider taking a self-test and/or visiting a nearby testing site. Anyone testing positive should refrain from re-entering the meeting space for the duration of the meeting and follow CDC guidance regarding care, isolating, and contact tracing. We will have a limited amount of self-tests available on-site.
