NSF Student Travel for 2018 USENIX Research Conferences: NSDI 2018, USENIX ATC 2018, USENIX Security Symposium 2018, and OSDI 2018

Usenix会议聚集了来自学术、政府和行业社区的研究人员，以促进跨学科方法和解决共同的研究挑战。这种跨学科的强调使它非常适合作为学生参与的目标，这些会议上讨论的重要主题鼓励学生在先进计算的关键领域进行研究和合作。这项提案中要求的支持将使原本无法参加会议的学生能够参加会议，并扩大向来自全国各地的年轻研究人员的广泛受众展示的研究的影响。为了帮助增加这些学生的代表性和参与度，该提案请求提供资金，以帮助大约20-25名美国研究生参加以下每一项活动：第15届USENIX网络系统设计和实现研讨会(NSDI 2018)。USENIX年度技术会议(ATC 2018)。USENIX安全研讨会(安全2018)。第13届USENIX操作系统设计和实现研讨会(OSDI 2018)。在这些会议上分享和先进的知识具有实际和有意义的应用，应用于日常生活中使用的各种东西，如家用电器、汽车、手机、飞机和公共交通，以及计算机技术的伦理、文化和社会分支。该奖项反映了NSF的法定使命，并通过使用基金会的智力优势和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估，被认为值得支持。

USENIX conferences gathers researchers from across the academic, government, and industry communities to foster cross-disciplinary approaches and to address shared research challenges. This cross-disciplinary emphasis makes it well-suited as a target for student participation, and the important topics addressed in these conferences encourage student research and collaboration in critical areas ofadvanced computing. The support requested in this proposal will enable the participation of students who would otherwise be unable to attend the conference, and extends the impact of research presented to a broad audience of young researchers from across the country.To help increase the representation and participation of these students, this proposal requests funding to assist approximately 20-25 US-based graduate students to attend each of the following events: 15th USENIX Symposium on Networked Systems Design and Implementation (NSDI 2018).USENIX Annual Technical Conference (ATC 2018). USENIX Security Symposium (Security 2018).13th USENIX Symposium on Operating Systems Design and Implementation (OSDI 2018). The knowledge shared and advanced at these conferences has practical and meaningful applications to a broad variety of things used in daily life such as household appliances, cars, cell phones, airplanes and public transit, as well as to the ethical, cultural, and social ramifications of computing technologyThis 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.
