III: Travel Fellowships for Students from U.S. Universities to Attend ISWC 2013

语义技术开始在广泛的应用中发挥越来越重要的作用。迫切需要对研究生进行高级培训，以在该领域进行研究并为学术或工业职业生涯做好准备。参加该领域的重要研究会议是此类培训的重要组成部分。该项目提供资金补贴10-15名美国大学学生参加将于2013年10月21-25日在澳大利亚悉尼举行的2013年国际语义网会议（ISWC）的旅费。 ISWC 是一个重要的国际会议，为展示语义网及相关领域经过严格同行评审的研究成果提供了场所。该会议包括两项专门针对研究生的活动： ISWC 博士联盟为博士生提供展示其工作并获得反馈和指导的机会。 ISWC 职业指导午餐为学生提供了一个非正式的环境，让他们与社区中的高级研究人员讨论与研究职业有关的所有问题，并建立长期的指导关系。该项目更广泛的影响包括： 增加美国研究生在语义网及相关领域的培训和指导机会，扩大目前在计算机科学领域，特别是语义网领域代表性不足的群体（女性和少数族裔）的学生的参与。

Semantic technologies, are beginning to play increasingly important roles across a broad range of applications. There is an urgent need for advanced training graduate students to conduct research in this area and prepare for academic or industrial careers.Participation in premier research conferences in the area is an essential element of such training. This project provides funds to subsidize the travel expenses of 10-15 students at U.S. universities to attend the 2013 International Semantic Web Conference (ISWC) which will be held October 21-25, 2013 in Sydney, Australia. ISWC is a premier international conference which offers a venue for presentation of rigorously peer-reviewed research results in Semantic Web and allied areas. The conference includes two events specially targeted to graduate students: The ISWC doctoral consortium offers an opportunity for doctoral students to present their work and receive feedback and mentoring. The ISWC Career Mentoring lunch provides an informal setting for students to discuss all issues pertaining to research careers with senior researchers in the community, and to establish long-term mentoring ties. Broader impacts of the project include: Enhanced opportunities for training and mentoring of US-based graduate students in Semantic Web and related areas, broadening the particiation of students from groups (women and minorities) that are currently under-represented in Computer Science in general, and Semantic Web in particular.
