Cross-Domain Trade-Off
Limited capacity Sufficient incentive to be “domain-specific” ????
Performance
Simplicity,Versatility

What Not To Do
Fine to do “cross-domain” research where deemed desirable
But …
10
What Not To Do
DO NOT promote narrow research programs
Narrowly targeted programscreate false demandunnecessarily fragment research
community
Not healthy for basic research
Mobile Computing + eHealth/HomelandSecurity/Energy
