2005 IEEE International Symposium on Information Theory Travel Support; Adelaide, AU; September 4-9, 2005

IEEE信息理论国际研讨会(ISIT)每年在北美和国外交替举行。2005年ITIT将于9月4日至9日在澳大利亚阿德莱德的阿德莱德会议中心举行。ISIT有着初级研究人员参与的深厚传统，这帮助它保持了作为新想法领先论坛的声誉。这项提案要求为来自美国的初级参与者，如研究生、研究助理和新的助理教授的旅费提供支持。这些与会者将是其论文已被选中在专题讨论会上介绍的个人，但他们缺乏资金，如果没有旅行支助就无法出席。建议由研讨会的共同主席亚历克斯·格兰特和罗德尼·肯尼迪颁发奖项。要求的总金额为30,000美元，基于30项奖励，平均每人1,000美元。

The IEEE International Symposium on Information Theory (ISIT) is held annually at sites alternating between North America and abroad. The 2005 ISIT will be held at the Adelaide Convention Centre in Adelaide, Australia from September 4th to the 9th. ISIT has a strong tradition of participation by junior researchers that has helped it maintain its reputation as a leading forum for new ideas. This proposal requests support for the travel expenses of junior participants from the U.S., such as graduate students, research associates, and new assistant professors. These participants would be individuals whose papers have been selected for presentation at the symposium, but who lack funds and would not be able to attend without travel support. It is proposed that the co-chairs of the symposium, Alex Grant and Rodney Kennedy, make the awards. The total amount requested is $30,000, based on 30 awards averaging $1000 each.
