The goal of this travel grant is to broaden the audience attending the premier network protocol conference, the IEEE International Conference on Network Protocols (ICNP), and as a result, raise the level of interaction and the potential for new collaborations, new investigations, and higher quality research. Support from the National Science Foundation is requested on behalf of graduate students attending institutions in the United States. Intellectual Merit: By supporting graduate students to attend ICNP 2013, this grant will increase the dissemination of the conference research results to a larger and a more diverse audience, which otherwise would not have been able to attend. In so doing, this proposal will contribute to the strength and inclusiveness of the research community, and will lead to the long-term health and vitalization of ICNP. In addition, preference in grant awards to women and under-represented students will hopefully increase the participation among these groups. By advertising to a wide range of colleges and universities, participants from a more diverse set of institutions should be able to attend and benefit from the conference. A broad, as well as diverse population is key to the health of the research community and the discipline. Broader Impacts: Conference attendance is a crucial part of the life of a researcher. By creating new opportunities for students, especially those from under-represented groups to attend a high-quality conference, this project will benefit the research community in several ways. The students themselves benefit from the opportunity to meet and interact with many other researchers in a favorable setting, and from seeing research presented that may be related to what they are working on, or may inspire them to try a new direction. The research community benefits from the improvement of the students in the pipeline, and the introduction of new researcher perspectives. Additionally, everybody benefits from increased diversity of participants attending the conference.

这笔旅费补助的目的是扩大参加顶级网络协议会议IEEE国际网络协议会议（ICNP）的观众，从而提高互动水平和新合作，新调查和更高质量研究的潜力。国家科学基金会代表在美国各机构就读的研究生请求提供支助。智力优势：通过支持研究生参加ICNP 2013，这笔赠款将增加会议研究成果的传播到更大和更多样化的观众，否则将无法参加。在这样做的过程中，这项建议将有助于加强研究界的力量和包容性，并将导致ICNP的长期健康和活力。此外，优先向妇女和代表性不足的学生发放助学金，有望增加这些群体的参与。通过向广泛的学院和大学做广告，来自更多样化机构的与会者应该能够参加会议并从中受益。一个广泛的，以及多样化的人口是关键的健康的研究社区和学科。更广泛的影响：参加会议是研究人员生活的重要组成部分。通过为学生创造新的机会，特别是那些来自代表性不足的群体参加高质量的会议，该项目将有利于研究界在几个方面。学生本身受益于在有利的环境中与许多其他研究人员会面和互动的机会，并从看到可能与他们正在研究的内容相关的研究中受益，或者可能激励他们尝试新的方向。研究社区受益于管道中的学生的改进，以及新的研究人员观点的引入。此外，每个人都受益于参加会议的参与者的多样性。
