ABSTRACT0441530Harrold, MaryGA Tech Res CorpThe Taulbee Survey reports disappointing statistics on the number of women and minority com-puter science Ph.D. recipients during the 1990s. Only 15% of all Ph.D. recipients were women, only2% were black, and only 2% were Hispanic. In an effort to improve the representation of womenand minorities in computer science, as the organizing committee of the 2004 ACM SIGSOFT Con-ference on the Foundations of Software Engineering (FSE-12), we are developing a plan to helpincrease the participation of faculty from institutions with a large minority and/or female studentenrollment. We will target institutions that have large populations of women, African Americans orHispanics. Since the conference will take place in California, we expect to be able to attract facultythat teach Hispanic students. Our plan is to invite faculty actively involved with the education ofwomen and minorities to attend FSE-12 tutorials and conference. As part of our tutorial series,we will provide tutorials for the selected faculty to help them in their teaching. They also will beinvited to the conference to stimlate their interests in software engineering and thus their students'interests. To help support our effort, we request NSF funding to provide travel and registrationgrants for these participants, who may not otherwise have sufficient institutional funding to attend.

陶尔比调查报告了令人失望的关于妇女和少数民族计算机科学博士人数的统计数据。90年代的获奖者。只有15%的博士接受者是女性，只有2%是黑人，只有2%是西班牙裔。为了提高妇女和少数民族在计算机科学中的代表性，作为2004年ACM SIGSOFT软件工程基础会议（FSE-12）的组织委员会，我们正在制定一项计划，以帮助增加少数民族和/或女学生人数较多的机构的教师的参与。我们的目标是那些有大量妇女、非洲裔美国人或西班牙裔美国人的机构。由于会议将在加州举行，我们希望能够吸引教授西班牙裔学生的教师。我们的计划是邀请积极参与妇女和少数民族教育的教师参加FSE-12教程和会议。作为我们的教程系列的一部分，我们将为选定的教师提供教程，以帮助他们的教学。他们还将被邀请参加会议，以激发他们对软件工程的兴趣，从而激发学生的兴趣。为了帮助支持我们的努力，我们请求NSF资助为这些参与者提供旅行和注册补助金，否则他们可能没有足够的机构资金参加。
