Student Travel Support for the 3rd International Workshop on Software Analytics (SWAN 2017)

该提案要求为将于2017年9月在德国帕德伯恩举行的第三届软件分析国际研讨会(SWAN 2017)的学生提供资金支持。这些资金将鼓励在美国的学生参加，优先考虑代表人数不足的群体、美国公民/居民，以及那些在没有经济支持的情况下无法参加的学生。作为软件工程实证研究基础的软件分析领域导致了对围绕软件及其开发的现象的科学理解。这一领域正在形成，并将通过增加对这一系列创业研讨会的参与而得到促进。研讨会是介绍这一领域工作的论坛，因此，它将有助于扩大研究和加强美国在该领域的参与。

The proposal requests funds to support students at the 3rd International Workshop on Software Analytics (SWAN 2017), to take place in September 2017 in Paderborn, Germany. The funds are to encourage US-based students to attend, with priority given to underrepresented groups, US citizens/residents, and those otherwise unable to attend without financial support. The area of software analytics as the basis for empirical research in software engineering leads to a scientific understanding of phenomena surrounding software and its development. The area is emerging and will be boosted by increasing participation in this start-up workshop series. The workshop is a forum for presentation of work in this field, and as such, it will help expand research and strengthen US participation in the field.
