This award supports student attendance at the 59th IEEE Annual Symposium on the Foundations of Computer Science (FOCS) in Paris, France from October 7 through October 9, 2018, as well as to support attendance by some qualified postdoctoral fellows who do not have other sources of travel funding. FOCS and its sister conference, the ACM STOC meeting, are the premier broad-based conferences on the Theory of Computing. FOCS has a record of strongly encouraging participation by students, for whom the conference serves as a valuable educational experience, both for the technical content of the talks and for the opportunities for networking that it provides. In recent years, the annual FOCS conference has been attended by eighty to one hundred students who have comprised more than a third of all attendees. This award will provide partial support to about 20 students.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.

该奖项支持学生参加2018年10月7日至10月9日在法国巴黎的计算机科学基础（FOCS）的第59届IEEE年度研讨会，并支持一些没有其他旅行资金来源的合格的博士后研究员来支持参加。 FOCS及其姊妹会议是ACM STOC会议，是有关计算理论的主要广泛会议。 FOCS具有强烈鼓励学生参与的记录，为此，会议是一次有价值的教育经验，无论是谈判的技术内容还是为其提供的网络提供的机会。近年来，年度焦点会议已有80年参加了一百名学生，这些学生占所有与会者的三分之一。该奖项将为大约20名学生提供部分支持。该奖项反映了NSF的法定任务，并被认为是值得通过基金会的知识分子优点和更广泛影响评论标准的评估来支持的。
