This award supports student travel to and participation in the 55th IEEE Conference on Decision and Control (CDC), to be held in Las Vegas, NV, December 12-14, 2016. For over fifty years, the CDC has been the world's leading annual forum for scientific and engineering researchers who share an interest in systems and control theory and the foundations of systems and control technology. As in previous years, the 55th CDC will feature the presentation of contributed and invited papers, tutorial sessions, as well as plenary and semi-plenary sessions and workshops. We anticipate that the conference will draw over 1500 participants, including more than 250 students and, recognizing the importance of students to the present and future of the Control Systems Society (CSS), hope that NSF will continue its long-standing tradition of supporting the student travel at CDC, and will join CSS in facilitating the student travel program.The range of topics covered at the annual CDC is extremely broad, mirroring the varied applications of control and systems theory. The systems theoretic approach has played a critical role in the development of many contemporary infrastructures and technology affecting everyday life. Systems and control theoretic tools are central in the design, operation, and security of cyber-physical systems, where they can inform researchers about ways to make large networks (e.g., power, communication, computer, traffic) robust to deliberate and accidental disturbances.The CDC provides a unique opportunity for students receiving proposed funds to interact with members of the professional community in a stimulating setting, and to exchange ideas with a broad group of colleagues. The large number of workshops before the conference and the interactive format of many of the presentations will allow additional opportunity for training and learning. Specific outreach effort will be devoted to advertising the conference and the student travel award program to under-represented minorities.

该奖项支持学生前往并参加将于2016年12月12日至14日在内华达州拉斯维加斯举行的第55届IEEE决策与控制会议（CDC）。50多年来，CDC一直是世界领先的科学和工程研究人员的年度论坛，他们对系统和控制理论以及系统和控制技术的基础感兴趣。与往年一样，第55届CDC将介绍贡献和邀请的论文，辅导会议，以及全体会议和半全体会议和研讨会。我们预计会议将吸引超过1500名与会者，其中包括250多名学生，并认识到学生对控制系统协会（CSS）的现在和未来的重要性，希望NSF将继续支持CDC的学生旅行的长期传统，并将与CSS一起促进学生旅行计划。年度CDC涵盖的主题范围非常广泛，反映了控制和系统理论的各种应用。系统理论方法在影响日常生活的许多现代基础设施和技术的发展中发挥了关键作用。系统和控制理论工具在网络物理系统的设计，操作和安全性中处于核心地位，它们可以告知研究人员如何构建大型网络（例如，电力，通信，计算机，交通）鲁棒蓄意和意外干扰。CDC为接受拟议资金的学生提供了一个独特的机会，与专业团体的成员在一个刺激的环境中互动，并与广泛的同事交流思想。会前举办的大量讲习班以及许多专题介绍的互动形式将为培训和学习提供更多机会。具体的外联工作将致力于向代表性不足的少数民族宣传会议和学生旅行奖励计划。
