The conference them' Human Communication and Cybernetics' emphasizes the new paradigms and perspectives in systems science and engineering that support human activities in planning, design, decision making, and associated resource allocation under enormous amounts of information networks in the coming century. This project request funds to provide trave awards to students representing US institutions selected as a finalist in the SMC'99 Best Student Paper Competition.
