This project supports travel for U.S. students to the Fourth ACM International Workshop on Underwater Networks (ACM WUWNet 2009). The travel support is for students who might not otherwise be able to attend the workshop.With respect to intellectual merit, this workshop has established itself as an important workshop on underwater communication and networking. This topic area is of great significance due to the inherent technical challenges for communications and system design in the harsh underwater environment and due to its potential to enable transformative new capabilities for environmental and maritime security applications. The workshop seeks to encourage the participation of graduate students from electrical engineering, computer engineering, computer science, and other related disciplines. Students present their work in technical presentations, posters, and demonstrations and also participate in workshop organization and logistics.With respect to broader impacts, the travel support can improve the education of graduate students through participation in the workshop and associated interaction with leading researchers and other students. The selection process emphasizes support for those students who might not otherwise be able to attend the workshop. The selection process also considers the student's research activity in underwater communication and networking. Preference will be given to women and other students from underrepresented groups, thus addressing the need for increased diversity in research.

该项目支持美国学生参加第四届ACM水下网络国际研讨会(ACM WUWNet 2009)。旅行支持是为那些本来可能无法参加工作坊的学生提供的。在智力方面，这个工作坊已经成为一个关于水下通信和网络的重要工作坊。这一专题领域具有重要意义，因为在恶劣的水下环境中，通信和系统设计面临着固有的技术挑战，而且它有可能为环境和海上安全应用带来变革性的新能力。研讨会旨在鼓励电气工程、计算机工程、计算机科学和其他相关学科的研究生参加。学生通过技术演示、海报和演示展示他们的工作，也参与研讨会的组织和后勤工作。就更广泛的影响而言，旅行支持可以通过参与研讨会以及与领先研究人员和其他学生的互动来改善研究生的教育。选拔过程强调为那些本来可能无法参加研讨会的学生提供支持。遴选过程还考虑了学生在水下通信和网络方面的研究活动。将优先考虑来自代表性不足群体的妇女和其他学生，从而满足增加研究多样性的需要。
