III: Student Travel Fellowships to ACM SIGMOD Conference 2014

该项目的目标是在ACM SIGMOD 2014数据库会议上为数据库学生提供一个独特的机会来展示他们的研究成果，学习前沿研究，并与来自学术界和工业界的国际知名研究人员进行互动。作为数据管理研究领域最负盛名的会议之一，ACM SIGMOD/PODS自1975年以来为数据管理技术和应用的各个方面的进步做出了重大贡献。今天，ACM SIGMOD是一个动态的、全面的出版、教育和互动程序；它是数据库研究人员、实践者、开发人员和用户探索前沿思想和结果以及交流技术、工具和经验的主要国际论坛。该项目将为来自美国院校的学生，特别是女性和少数族裔学生提供部分支持，以参加在犹他州雪鸟市举行的ACM SIGMO 2014会议并展示他们的研究工作。除了在常规项目会议期间与学术界和工业界的研究人员会面外，在SIGMOD 2014中，学生将能够参加以下由该项目部分支持的互动活动：新研究人员研讨会，本科生研究海报竞赛，与主要研究人员面对面会议，以及学生指导研讨会。这些机会将对参与者未来的职业生涯产生深远的影响。更广泛的影响是培养数据管理这一关键领域的下一代领导者和劳动力。有关该奖项的更多信息可在SIGMOD旅行奖学金网站上找到：http://www.sigmod2014.org/grants3.shtml

The goal of this project is to provide a unique opportunity for database students to present their research results, learn cutting edge research, and interact with internationally recognized researchers from both academia and industry at the ACM SIGMOD 2014 Database Conference.As one of the most prestigious conferences in data management research, ACM SIGMOD/PODS has contributed significantly to the advance of all aspects of data management technologies and applications since 1975. Today ACM SIGMOD is a dynamic and comprehensive program for publication, education, and interaction; and it is a leading international forum for database researchers, practitioners, developers, and users to explore cutting-edge ideas and results and to exchange techniques, tools, and experiences. This project will provide partial support for students from U.S. institutions, especially female and minority students, to attend and present their research work at ACM SIGMO 2014 in Snowbird, Utah. Besides meeting with researchers from academia and industry during regular program sessions, in SIGMOD 2014 students will be able to participate in the following interactive activities as partially supported by this project: a new researcher symposium, an undergraduate research poster competition, face-to-face meetings with leading researchers, and a student mentoring workshop. These opportunities will have a long lasting impact on the future career of the participants. The broader impact is to train the future generation of leaders and workforce in the critical field of data management.
