Student Travel Support for the 4th International Workshop on Software Analytics (SWAN 2018)

该旅行奖支持学生参加2018年11月5日在美国佛罗里达州举行的第四届软件分析国际研讨会（SWAN 2018）。这些基金旨在鼓励美国学生入学，优先考虑代表性不足的群体、美国公民/居民，以及那些没有经济支持就无法入学的学生。软件分析领域作为软件工程中实证研究的基础，导致了对软件及其开发周围现象的科学理解。该领域正在兴起，并将通过增加学生参与这个启动系列讲习班而得到推动。该研讨会是介绍该领域工作的论坛，因此，它将有助于扩大研究并加强美国在该领域的参与。讲习班的技术范围包括数据探索和分析的数据驱动方法；软件预测分析；网络分析，开发分析；商业智能工具；软件项目的大规模数据挖掘、分析和分析；针对不同涉众的软件分析（例如，经理vs.开发人员）；关于软件分析在实践中的应用及其有效性的实证研究。该奖项反映了美国国家科学基金会的法定使命，并通过使用基金会的知识价值和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估，被认为值得支持。

This travel award supports student participation at the 4th International Workshop on Software Analytics (SWAN 2018) happening in Florida, USA on November 5, 2018. The funds seek 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 student 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.The technical scope of the workshop covers data-driven approaches for data exploration and analysis; predictive analytics for software; web analytics, development analytics; business intelligence tools; large-scale data mining, analysis and analytics for software projects; software analytics for various stakeholders (e.g., managers vs. developers); empirical studies on how software analytics are used in practice and their effectiveness.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.
