NSF Student Travel Grant for 2017 ACM Annual International Conference on Mobile Computing and Networking (ACM MobiCom)

ACM MobiCom会议是关注移动计算和无线通信系统问题的主要国际会议。MobiCom 2017讨论的主题是当前无线网络发展的核心。会议吸引了来自多个学科的研究贡献，包括无线网络、车载通信、移动传感、个人区域网络、网状网络、分布式算法、调度、传感器和信号处理。除主要会议外，会议还为学生和研究人员提供了参加小组讨论、研讨会、演示和创业竞赛的良好机会，为移动、无线网络和计算领域带来了出色的想法和应用。美国国家科学基金会的旅行资助计划将有助于提高在美国的研究生和本科生在本次会议上的代表性和参与度，并使参加会议的学生能够分享信息和初步研究成果。参加ACM MobiCom等顶级会议是研究生院经历中非常重要的一部分，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。该奖项将使无法参加2017年MobiCom大会和相关研讨会的研究生有机会参加。

The ACM MobiCom conference is the leading international conference focusing on systems issues in mobile computing and wireless communications. The topics addressed by MobiCom 2017 are at the core of the current wireless network evolution. The conference attracts research contributions spanning multiple disciplines, including wireless networking, vehicular communications, mobile sensing, personal area networks, mesh networks, distributed algorithms, scheduling, sensors, and signal processing. In addition to the main session, the conference also provides good opportunities to students and researchers to participate in panels, workshops, demos and startup competitions that bring in brilliant ideas and applications in mobile, wireless networking and computing.The NSF travel grant program will help increase representation and participation of United States-based graduate and undergraduate students at this conference, and enable sharing of information and preliminary research results among participating students. Participation of top conferences like ACM MobiCom is an extremely important 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. The award will enable graduate students who would be otherwise unable, to attend the main MobiCom 2017 and the associated workshops.
