CNS: Student Travel Support for the 2017 Middleware Conference

这项提案寻求资金，以支持美国研究生参加会议。参加像Middleware这样的重要会议对研究生来说是一次至关重要的经历，因为它让他们接触到新的想法，并帮助他们与其他研究人员建立网络。中间件包括业界的大量参与，这使它成为学生学习实际问题的一个特别好的机会。中间件将来自学术界和产业界的参与者聚集在一起，这将帮助学生了解当今行业面临的职业机会和现实挑战。该项目将通过向美国研究生介绍新的研究主题、观点、技术和潜在的合作来加强他们的教育、培训和职业发展。学生将有机会看到关于分布式软件系统和中间件领域的前沿研究的演讲。

This proposal seeks funding to support US-based graduate students to attend the conference. Attending important conferences like Middleware is a critical experience for graduate students since it exposes them to new ideas, and helps them build a network with other researchers. Middleware includes significant participation from industry, making it a particularly good opportunity for students to learn about practical problems. Middleware brings together participants from both academia and industry, which will help students learn about both career opportunities and realistic challenges faced by industry today.This project will enhance the education, training, and career development of U.S. graduate students by introducing them to new research topics, points of view, technologies, and potential collaborations. Students will have the chance to see presentations on cutting edge research in the field of distributed software systems and middleware.
