  8. How do we describe CI, given we’re not ready to give it a definition and how do we envision its future?

  9. How does Engineering fit into the emerging CI theme?

  10. How does CI fit into the engineering agenda (priorities)? How can CI advance research and education in those areas? Which aspects of CI will be most important for the Engineering community?

  11. Where do we begin? What should be our priorities for Engineering’s initial investments in CI?

  12. How do we get fully connected with the engineering community in this discussion on CI?
