The 9th International Conference on emerging Networking EXperiments and Technologies(CoNEXT) will take place from December 9th to 12th in Santa Barbara, CA. CoNEXT is a highly selective (20%), high-quality conference sponsored by the ACM Special Interest Group on Data Communication (SIGCOMM). The conference is a major forum for presentation and discussion of novel networking protocols and technologies. The proposal requests funds to partially support the travel of 20 US-based graduate students. The support amount will be $1,000 or the actual documented amount of expenses, whichever is less. Each student will need to cover expenses in excess of the fixed amount from other funds. If students spend less than the $1,000 limit the surplus funds will be used to support students from under-represented institutions. Preference in the award of the travel grants will be given to students who have their work accepted to the CoNEXT student workshop which will take place the first day of the conference. Other criteria will include evidence of a serious interest in networking, as demonstrated by coursework and/or project experience. Broader Impact: This project integrates research and education of students through exposure to a premier technical meeting in computer networks and communications. Students will have the opportunity to observe high-quality presentations and interact with senior researchers in the field both in the main conference and the associated workshops. The PI will especially encourage women and under-represented groups to participate.

第九届新兴网络实验和技术国际会议（CoNEXT）将于12月9日至12日在加利福尼亚州圣巴巴拉举行。 CoNEXT是一个高选择性（20%），高质量的会议，由ACM数据通信特别兴趣小组（SIGCOMM）赞助。 该会议是一个主要的论坛，用于介绍和讨论新的网络协议和技术。该提案要求资金部分支持20名美国研究生的旅行。 资助金额为$1，000或实际记录的费用金额，以较低者为准。每个学生需要从其他基金支付超过固定金额的费用。 如果学生花费低于1,000美元的限制，盈余资金将用于支持来自代表性不足的机构的学生。 在旅行赠款的奖励优先将给予学生谁有他们的工作接受了将发生在会议的第一天的CONEXT学生研讨会。其他标准将包括对网络的严重兴趣的证据，如课程和/或项目经验所证明的。更广泛的影响：该项目通过参加计算机网络和通信领域的重要技术会议，整合了学生的研究和教育。学生将有机会在主会议和相关研讨会上观察高质量的演讲，并与该领域的高级研究人员进行互动。PI将特别鼓励妇女和代表性不足的群体参与。
