This award supports student travel to and participation in the 57th IEEE Conference on Decision and Control (CDC), to be held in Miami, FL, December 17-19, 2018. The IEEE CDC has been the world's leading annual forum for engineers and researchers with an interest in systems and control theory as well as control technology. As in previous years, the 57th CDC will feature the presentation of contributed and invited papers, tutorial sessions, plenary and semi-plenary sessions, and workshops. It is anticipated that the conference will draw over 1500 participants, including more than 500 students. Recognizing the importance of students to the present and future of the Control Systems Society (CSS), this award will support CSS in providing funding for students traveling to attend CDC-18.The research topics covered every year by CDC presentations is very broad: this reflects the multitude of applications of controls and systems theory. Control systems have enabled the development of many technologies and infrastructures present in everyday life, from printers to power systems to self-driving cars. Systems and control theoretic tools are central in the design, operation, and security of cyber-physical systems, where they can inform researchers about ways to make large networks (e.g., power, communication, computer, traffic) robust to deliberate and accidental disturbances.Students receiving travel funds from this award to attend CDC will have many opportunities to interact with members of the professional community in a stimulating setting, and to exchange ideas with a broad group of colleagues. The large number of workshops before the conference and the interactive format of many of the presentations will allow additional opportunity for training and learning. Specific outreach effort will be devoted to advertising the conference and the student travel award program to under-represented minorities.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.

该奖项支持学生前往和参加将于2018年12月17日至19日在佛罗里达州迈阿密举行的第57届IEEE决策与控制会议(CDC)。IEEE CDC一直是世界领先的工程师和研究人员的年度论坛，他们对系统和控制理论以及控制技术感兴趣。与往年一样，第57届疾病控制与预防中心将以提交和邀请的论文、辅导会议、全体会议和半全体会议以及研讨会为特色。预计会议将吸引1500多人参加，其中包括500多名学生。认识到学生对控制系统学会(Css)现在和未来的重要性，该奖项将支持css为前往参加CDC-18课程的学生提供资金。CDC每年的报告涵盖的研究主题非常广泛：这反映了控制和系统理论的多种应用。控制系统使日常生活中的许多技术和基础设施得以发展，从打印机到电力系统再到自动驾驶汽车。系统和控制理论工具是网络物理系统设计、运行和安全的核心，它们可以向研究人员提供使大型网络(例如，电力、通信、计算机、流量)对故意和意外干扰具有健壮性的方法。从该奖项获得旅费进入CDC的学生将有许多机会在刺激的环境中与专业社区成员互动，并与广泛的同事交流想法。会议前举办的大量讲习班和许多专题介绍的互动形式将提供更多的培训和学习机会。具体的推广工作将致力于向代表不足的少数群体宣传会议和学生旅行奖励计划。这一奖励反映了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。
