Last fall, the Social, Behavorial and Economic Directorate of the US 
National Science Foundation issued a call to the community for papers 
describing opportunities for new research in the 2020 timeframe as a 
way of informing NSF's development of new research programs. We had a 
session at the December 2010 CNI meeting where NSF provided some 
initial summaries of themes from these papers.

The papers have been available for a few weeks at the NSF site, but I 
waited to announce them here until the summary file of all abstracts 
was available; there are a large number of papers and they are 
difficult to scan without such a file. There are some fascinating 
papers here.

The links to the papers and the summary file are at
