The 10th International Conference on emerging Networking EXperiments and Technologies (CoNEXT) will take place December 2-5, 2014, in Sydney, Australia. This award provides support for 10 US-based graduate students to attend this conference. Participation in conferences such as CoNEXT forms a central part of the graduate school experience, providing students with an opportunity to interact with more senior researchers and exposing them to leading-edge research in the field. ACM CoNEXT stands unique in its emphasis on interactions between networking researchers at an international level, and attending CoNEXT presents an excellent opportunity for US graduate students to connect with the thriving international research community. As in past years, CoNEXT 2014 will include a special student workshop, allowing students to present present their work in progress, receive feedback on their work, and obtain valuable experience in writing and presenting technical papers. The support enables students, who would otherwise be unable to attend to participate in the main conference and associated workshops at CoNEXT 2014.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 their field, both in the main conference and the associated workshops, and their inclusion will have a positive impact on the quality of their research. Women and other minorities will be especially encouraged to participate. The CoNEXT conference has developed into a top-tier international conference, presenting a tremendous opportunity to students to expand their knowledge of the field.

第十届新兴网络实验与技术国际会议(CONEXT)将于2014年12月2日至5日在澳大利亚悉尼举行。该奖项为参加本次会议的10名美国研究生提供支持。参加Conext这样的会议是研究生院经历的核心部分，为学生提供了与更资深的研究人员互动的机会，并使他们接触到该领域的前沿研究。ACM Conext的独特之处在于它强调国际层面上网络研究人员之间的互动，参加Conext为美国研究生提供了一个与蓬勃发展的国际研究社区建立联系的绝佳机会。与往年一样，2014年国际学术研讨会将包括一个特别的学生工作坊，允许学生展示他们正在进行的工作，接受对他们工作的反馈，并在撰写和提交技术论文方面获得宝贵的经验。该支持使原本无法参加Conext 2014主要会议和相关研讨会的学生能够参加。该项目通过参加计算机网络和通信领域的主要技术会议，将学生的研究和教育整合在一起。学生将有机会在主要会议和相关研讨会上观察高质量的演讲并与各自领域的资深研究人员互动，他们的加入将对他们的研究质量产生积极影响。将特别鼓励妇女和其他少数群体参与。CONEXT会议已经发展成为一个顶级的国际会议，为学生提供了一个极大的机会来扩大他们在该领域的知识。
