A Proposal to Support Young Scientists and Graduate Students in 2007 IEEE Communication Theory Workshop in Sedona, Arizona, USA

该提案要求部分支持年轻的研究人员和研究生参加2007年IEEE通信理论研讨会，研讨会将在亚利桑那州塞多纳的希尔顿·塞多纳度假村和温泉举行。NSF的支持将为大约25名年轻参与者提供机会，让他们在一个小型和鼓舞人心的研讨会环境中与知名研究人员互动。研讨会的重点是通信理论、信息理论和网络理论之间的相互作用。该提案的更广泛影响是促进了通信理论家和网络研究人员两个不同社区之间的技术讨论和辩论的环境。此外，研讨会旨在鼓励年轻科学家和研究人员参与。

The proposal requests partial support for young researchers and graduate students to participate in 2007 IEEE Communication Theory Workshop to be held in the Hilton Sedona Resort & Spa, Sedona, AZ. The NSF support will provide opportunities for approximately 25 young participants to interact with established researchers in a small and inspiring workshop setting. The focus of the workshop is on the interplay among communication theory, information theory and network theory.The broader impact of the proposal is fostering an environment of technical discussions and debates among two different communities of communication theorists and networking researchers. In addition, the workshop is set out to encourage participation by young scientists and researchers.
