Student Travel Support for the 12th ACM Conference on Embedded Networked Sensor Systems (SenSys 2014)

ACM Sensys会议是无线传感器网络和系统的领先国际会议。它邀请研究贡献解决无线传感器系统，算法和应用领域的挑战。会议以高质量的技术计划为特色，在约250份提交的申请中，接受率约为10%。它有一个单轨会议，为个人和小团体提供了重要的机会，促进了不同参与者之间的技术和社会互动。该奖项将提供25个或更多的旅费赠款，每人最高限额为750美元，以帮助增加美国学生在会议上的代表性和参与。通过为研究生创造新的机会，特别是那些来自代表性不足的群体，参加高质量的会议，这个奖项将使学生受益，让他们有机会与世界一流的研究人员互动，激励他们尝试新的研究方向，提供指导机会，以及寻求实习和博士后职位的机会，这将有助于学生在他们的研究生涯中前进。

ACM Sensys conference is the leading international conference on wireless sensor networks and systems. It invites research contributions addressing the challenges in the area of wireless sensor systems, algorithms, and applications. The conference features a high-quality technical program, with an acceptance rate of around 10% out of around 250 submissions. It has a single-track session, which offers significant opportunities for individual and small groups that foster technical and social interactions among a diverse set of participants. This award will help increase the representation and participation of United States-based students at the conference by providing 25 or more travel grants limited to a maximum of $750 each. By creating new opportunities for graduate students, especially those from under-represented groups, to attend a high-quality conference, this award will benefit the students by giving them an opportunity to interact with world-class researchers, inspire them to try new research directions, providing mentoring opportunities, as well as the chance to seek out internships and post-doctoral positions which will help the students advance in their research career.
