<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:3.75pt;line-height:normal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt">The purpose of the BOF will be to create a community of practice, ICICLE User Group (iUG) that will dedicate itself to further design, development, and deployment
of the ICICLE stack. iUG will serve as an outreach extension of the NSF AI Institute, ICICLE, or the Institute for Intelligent Cyberinfrastructure with Computational Learning in the Environment (icicle.ai). Over the last two-and-half-years, ICICLE has been
building the next generation of Cyberinfrastructure to render Artificial Intelligence (AI) more accessible to everyone and drive its further democratization in the larger society.
