Student Travel Support for the 2008 North American Power Symposium, held at Calgary, Canada, September 28, 2008 ? September 30, 2008.This proposal requests funding to subsidize the travel expenses incurred by students attending the 40th Annual North American Power Symposium to be held at Calgary, Canada from September 28 to September 30, 2008. It is anticipated that this subsidy will positively impact the extent of student participation at the conference. The North American Power Symposium (NAPS) is a non-profit event that is aimed primarily at student participation. Traditionally, the overwhelming majority of the papers are presented by students. At the 2008 NAPS, the organizers are taking several other steps to foster and encourage student participation. This includes arrangement for free accommodation of registered students. Additional measures are being taken to encourage women and minorities to participate.Intellectual Merit: NAPS is unique in its focus on students preparing and presenting technical papers. This conference provides a unique opportunity for NSF to interact with and promote interaction among students, academia and power industry to promote and discuss NSF?s vision of technical challenges in power and energy, and complex systems, sensing, communication and control as well as its economic, educational and sociological impact. NAPS is also venue to an exciting student paper competition for identifying and fostering high quality research performed by students.Broader Impact: NAPS conferences have a history of giving students their first opportunity at research presentations. Further, NAPS encourages discussion of systematic integration of research and teaching. Based on recent history of NAPS conferences the student program has been able to attract 20% minorities and women.

为2008年9月28日在加拿大卡尔加里举行的2008北美强国研讨会提供学生旅行支持？这项建议要求拨款资助学生参加2008年9月28日至9月30日在加拿大卡尔加里举行的第40届北美力量研讨会的旅费。预计这项补贴将对学生参与会议的程度产生积极影响。北美电力研讨会(NAPS)是一项主要面向学生参与的非营利性活动。传统上，绝大多数论文都是由学生提交的。在2008年的国家行动方案中，组织者正在采取其他几个步骤来促进和鼓励学生的参与。这包括为注册学生提供免费住宿的安排。正在采取更多措施鼓励妇女和少数群体参与。智力上的优点：国家行动方案的独特之处在于它侧重于学生准备和提交技术论文。本次会议为国家科学基金会提供了一个与学生、学术界和电力行业互动的独特机会，以促进和讨论国家科学基金会S关于电力和能源领域的技术挑战、复杂系统、传感、通信和控制及其经济、教育和社会学影响的愿景。NAPS也是一个激动人心的学生论文竞赛的场所，该竞赛旨在识别和促进学生进行的高质量研究。广泛影响：NAPS会议有为学生提供第一次发表研究报告的机会的历史。此外，国家行动方案鼓励讨论研究与教学的系统整合。根据最近的NAPs会议历史，这个学生项目已经能够吸引20%的少数族裔和女性。
