2017 Mixed Integer Programming Workshop; Montreal, Quebec, Canada; June 19-22, 2017

混合整数规划（MIP）研讨会是一项年度活动，旨在鼓励年轻研究人员参与整数规划和相关领域。该研讨会的主要重点是展示年轻的研究人员;在职业生涯的早期阶段增加有成就的学生的知名度;并为研究生提供与世界顶级研究人员建立联系的机会。该奖项将为10名研究生提供资金参加第14届MIP工作坊，每个人都将在工作坊上展示他或她的海报。MIP学生海报会议为学生提供了一个机会，突出他们正在进行的工作，并与来自工业界和学术界的其他研究人员网络。在工作坊期间，学生海报也由工作坊委员会评审，并表彰优秀的海报。2017年MIP研讨会将于2017年6月19日至6月22日在加拿大魁北克省蒙特利尔高等商业研究院举行。海报的征集将发送到各种邮件列表，包括那些为代表性不足的群体服务的邮件列表，以扩大参与：INFORMS计算学会，INFORMS优化学会，SIAM，OR/MS中的女性（蠕虫）和INFORMS初级教师兴趣小组。通过为研究生提供旅行资金，NSF将有助于降低出勤成本，鼓励学生参与，并将支持STEM学生参与MIP领域的新兴研究。

The Mixed Integer Programming (MIP) workshop is an annual event with the goal of encouraging participation of junior researchers in integer programming and related areas. A primary focus of this workshop is to showcase young researchers; to increase the visibility for accomplished students at an early stage in their career; and to provide an opportunity for graduate students to network with the world's top researchers. This award will provide funds for 10 graduate students to attend the 14th MIP workshop, each of whom will be presenting his or her poster at the workshop. MIP student poster sessions provide students with an opportunity to highlight their ongoing work and network with other researchers from industry and academia. During the workshop, student posters are also judged by a workshop committee and outstanding posters are recognized. The 2017 MIP workshop will be held from June 19th to June 22nd, 2017 at the HEC Montréal (École des hautes études commerciales de Montréal) in Québec, Canada. The solicitation for the posters will be sent to a variety of mailing lists, including those that serve underrepresented groups in an effort to broaden participation: INFORMS Computing Society, INFORMS Optimization Society, SIAM, Women in OR/MS (WORMS), and INFORMS Junior Faculty Interest Group. By providing travel funds for graduate students, NSF will help to decrease the cost of attendance to encourage participation of students and will support the engagement of STEM students in emerging research in the field of MIP.
