This award will support student attendance at the 2018 International Symposium on Distributed Computing (DISC), in New Orleans, LA, October 15 to 19, 2018. Distributed computing is ubiquitous, with many applications in the Internet and in small-scale devices. DISC gives an opportunity to expose students to the fundamental concepts behind the algorithms that drive distributed computing applications.This award will provide partial support to approximately 10 students to attend this top conference in the area of distributed computing. Efforts will be made to support students from under-represented groups and geographic diversity among students will be taken into account. The award will encourage and facilitate the student participation in this top-tier computer science conference. It will contribute towards attracting more under-represented groups to computer science research giving students an opportunity to engage in the important technical, professional, and social exchanges that DISC fosters.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.

该奖项将支持学生参加 2018 年 10 月 15 日至 19 日在路易斯安那州新奥尔良举行的 2018 年分布式计算国际研讨会 (DISC)。分布式计算无处不在，在互联网和小型设备中都有许多应用。 DISC 为学生提供了一个机会，让他们了解驱动分布式计算应用的算法背后的基本概念。该奖项将为大约 10 名学生参加分布式计算领域的顶级会议提供部分支持。我们将努力支持代表性不足群体的学生，并将考虑学生的地域多样性。该奖项将鼓励和促进学生参与这一顶级计算机科学会议。 它将有助于吸引更多代表性不足的群体参与计算机科学研究，让学生有机会参与 DISC 促进的重要技术、专业和社会交流。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。
