Student Travel Support for the 2013 International Symposium on Computer Architecture (ISCA-40)

国际计算机体系结构研讨会（ISCA）是介绍、讨论和辩论先进计算和通信系统的新的和创新的体系结构思想和技术的主要论坛。本次研讨会汇集了与处理器架构、编译器、芯片和系统相关领域的研究人员。本提案旨在通过为学生获得旅行支持来支持这一备受推崇的会议，以支付参加2013年6月在以色列特拉维夫举行的iscc会议的费用。优先考虑美国公民和永久居民，来自代表性不足群体的学生，以及将在ISCA或其联合研讨会上展示其研究的学生。由于旅行支助将使出席人数增加，ISCA会议将得到加强。获得旅行支持的学生个人将从与同行和专家互动的机会中受益，并建立有助于他们职业生涯的联系。更广泛地说，我们预计会有额外的间接影响。首先，我们计划广泛宣传可获得的支持，以吸引妇女和代表性不足的少数群体（通过在计算机架构网站和邮件列表上发帖）。其次，通过关注学生，这项资助将有助于培养他们指导下一代的计算机架构师。

The International Symposium on Computer Architecture (ISCA) is a premier forum for presenting, discussingand debating new and innovative architectural ideas and techniques for advanced computing andcommunication systems. This symposium brings together researchers in fields related to processor architecture,compilers, chips, and systems. This proposal aims to support this highly regarded conference byobtaining travel support for students in order to defray the costs of attending and participating in the ISCAconference in June, 2013 in Tel Aviv, Israel. Priority will be given to UScitizens and permanent residents, students from under-represented groups, and studentsthat will be presenting their research at ISCA or its joint workshops. The ISCA conference will be strengthened as aresult of the greater attendance that this travel support will enable. Students receiving travelsupport will personally benefit from the opportunity to interact with peers and experts, as well as establishconnections that will help their professional careers.More broadly, we expect additional indirect impacts. First, we plan to widely advertise the availablesupport in order to attract women and under-represented minority groups (through postings on computerarchitecture web-sites and mailing lists). Second, by focusing on students, the grant will help foster thementoring of subsequent generations of computer architects.
