Travel Grant Proposal to Support Student Participation in IDoESE, IASESE, and ESEM 2013 in Baltimore

这项资助将支持学生参加2013年10月在巴尔的摩举行的经验软件工程国际周。这一周包括了许多共同召开的会议，这些会议是国际社会在软件工程领域进行实证研究的主要会议。更多信息请访问http://umbc.edu/eseiw2013/。经验软件工程有潜力成为软件工程研究领域中日益多产和变革的一部分，因为可用/可分析数据的数量在过去几年中急剧增加。存储库和社区开发站点变得越来越普遍和庞大。用于挖掘和分析软件工程数据的工具正在出现，并加快了研究的步伐。NSF对学生旅行的支持将促进该领域的智力进步，并产生更广泛的影响，包括改善软件工程和未来劳动力的全球经验。

This grant supports travel for students to attend the Empirical Software Engineering International Week, which will take place in Baltimore in October 2013. The week includes a number of co-located conferences that are the main meetings for the international community doing empirical research in the field of Software Engineering. More information can be found at http://umbc.edu/eseiw2013/. Empirical Software Engineering has the potential to be an increasingly productive and transformative part of the Software Engineering research landscape, because the quantity of usable/analyzable data has increased dramatically just over the last few years. Repositories and community development sites are become more common and larger. Tools for mining and analyzing Software Engineering data are appearing and accelerating the pace of research. NSF's support of student travel will increase intellectual advances in the field and create broader impacts including improvements in software engineering and global experiences for the future workforce.
