Proposal to Support Student Travel for the ACM SIGCOMM 2015 Conference

该项目支持20名美国研究生参加将于2015年8月17日至21日在英国伦敦举行的ACM SIGCOMM 2015会议。 ACM SIGCOMM是数据通信特别兴趣小组（SIGCOMM）的旗舰年度会议，SIGCOMM是计算机协会（ACM）的一个特别兴趣小组。 该项目通过参加计算机网络和通信方面的主要技术会议，将研究和教育结合起来。 学生将有机会在主会议和相关研讨会上观察高质量的演讲，并与该领域的高级研究人员进行互动。 PI特别鼓励妇女和其他少数群体参与。 SIGCOMM是计算机网络研究的旗舰国际会议，为学生提供了一个独特的机会，以扩大他们的思想，研究技能和技术观点的广度。该项目将为每位学生提供1，250美元的旅行奖励或实际记录的费用金额，旅行奖励的可用性将在整个美国研究界广为宣传。 该项目制定了甄选获奖者的程序，这些程序描述清楚，适合于这种学生旅费赠款。

This project supports the travel of 20 graduate students from U.S. institutions to the ACM SIGCOMM 2015 Conference that will be held Aug. 17-21, 2015, in London, United Kingdom. ACM SIGCOMM is the flagship annual conference of the Special Interest Group on Data Communications (SIGCOMM), a special interest group of the Association for Computing Machinery (ACM). This project 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 the field both in the main conference and the associated workshops. The PIs especially encourage women and other minorities to participate. SIGCOMM is the flagship international conference for computer networking research, and presents a unique opportunity for students to expand their breadth of ideas, research skills, and technical perspectives.The project will provide each student with a travel award of $1,250 or the actual documented amount of expenses, whichever amounts to less. The availability of the travel awards will be well publicized throughout the U.S. research community. The project has established processes for selecting the awardees that are well described and that are appropriate for such a student travel grant.
