The IEEE INFOCOM Conference on Computer Communications will be held in Shanghai, China from April 10 to April 15, 2011. This flagship technical conference is a premier venue for presenting new research results in the area of computer communications, and is widely attended by researchers and practitioners in the field. Attending conferences such as INFOCOM is of great importance for the development of graduate students. Participants have the opportunity to present their work, attend panel and keynote sessions, and interact with hundreds of others performing leading-edge research in the field. This proposal requests funds to support approximately fourteen graduate students in the United States to attend this premier conference. Women and under-represented minorities will be encouraged to attend.Intellectual Merit: The intellectual merit of the proposal resides in encouraging and supporting graduate student attendance to INFOCOM 2011. This will continue the tradition of the previous INFOCOM conferences as a premier venue for bringing together academia, industry, and government to share newest developments in communications. Besides technical paper presentations, the conference offers a wide range of technical activities including workshops and work-in-progress sessions. Its rich program exposes participants to new ideas and cutting-edge research and allows for interaction between researchers from all over the world.Broader Impact: This project integrates research and education of graduate students through exposure to a premier technical meeting in computer networks and communications. Students will have the opportunity to attend high-quality presentations and interact with senior researchers as well as peers in the field. The proposed student participation is expected to have a positive impact on the students' research interests and quality. The project will also promote diversity by encouraging and enabling women and other under-represented minorities to participate. Furthermore, the truly international flavor of INFOCOM is well-known and reflected in the composition of the Technical Program Committee (TPC) as well as in the authors of the submitted and accepted papers. As such, it cultivates international research interactions and presents a real opportunity to students to increase their breadth of ideas, research approaches, and technical perspectives.

IEEE INFOCOM计算机通信会议将于2011年4月10日至4月15日在中国上海举行。这个旗舰技术会议是展示计算机通信领域新研究成果的首要场所，该领域的研究人员和从业人员广泛参加。参加INFOCOM等会议对研究生的发展非常重要。参与者有机会展示他们的工作，参加小组和主题演讲，并与数百名在该领域进行前沿研究的其他人互动。该提案要求提供资金，以支持美国大约14名研究生参加这次重要会议。智力价值：该提案的智力价值在于鼓励和支持研究生参加2011年INFOCOM。这将延续以往INFOCOM会议的传统，成为学术界、工业界和政府聚集在一起分享通信最新发展的主要场所。除了技术论文介绍外，会议还提供广泛的技术活动，包括研讨会和工作进展会议。其丰富的计划使参与者接触到新的想法和前沿研究，并允许来自世界各地的研究人员之间的互动。更广泛的影响：该项目通过接触计算机网络和通信领域的顶级技术会议，将研究生的研究和教育结合起来。学生将有机会参加高质量的演讲，并与高级研究人员以及该领域的同行进行互动。学生的参与有望对学生的研究兴趣和质量产生积极的影响。该项目还将通过鼓励和使妇女和其他代表性不足的少数群体能够参与来促进多样性。此外，INFOCOM真正的国际风味是众所周知的，反映在技术方案委员会（TPC）的组成以及提交和接受的论文的作者。因此，它培养了国际研究互动，并为学生提供了一个真实的机会，以增加他们的思想，研究方法和技术视角的广度。
