NSF Student Travel Grant for 2017 IEEE/ACM International Conference on Utility and Cloud Computing (UCC) and Co-located BDCAT Conference

这份提案是为“2017 IEEE/ACM国际公用事业和云计算会议(UCC)和合办IEEE/ACM大数据计算、应用和技术国际会议(BDCAT)”申请的。会议经验对于培养本科生和研究生为未来的计算能力做好准备至关重要。这项提议旨在帮助培养未来强大的计算机和计算科学劳动力，使原本无法参加UCC/BDCAT 2017年会议的学生能够参加，激发学生进行尖端研究的热情，拓宽他们的视野，并与该领域的顶尖研究科学家和教授互动。成功的参与可以在激发学生对效用计算、云计算服务、高级分布式计算、大数据计算和应用的热情(与学生通常感兴趣的Java和Web开发相反)方面产生影响，并为国家培养未来的计算劳动力。

This proposal is request for "NSF Student Travel Grant for 2017 IEEE/ACM International Conference on Utility and Cloud Computing (UCC) and Co-located IEEE/ACM International Conference on Big Data Computing, Applications and Technologies (BDCAT)".Conference experience is critical for training undergraduate and graduate students to be well-prepared computing force in the future. This proposal aims to help develop the strong future workforce in computer and computational sciences by enabling students who would otherwise could not attend to participate in the UCC/BDCAT 2017 conference, stimulating students' enthusiasms in conducting cutting-edge research, and broadening their visions and interactions with top research scientists and professors in the field.A successful engagement can have an impact in stimulating students' enthusiasm about utility computing, Cloud computing services, advanced distributed computing, and big data computing and applications (in contrast to Java and Web developments students are normally interested) and training future computing workforce for the nation.
