NSF Student Travel Grant for the 2019 IFIP Networking Conference (IFIP NETWORKING)

这笔旅行补助金用于支持美国研究生参加2019年5月20日至5月22日在波兰华沙举行的2019年国际信息处理联合会(IFIP)网络会议。网络系列会议是由国际通信系统技术委员会(TC6)于2000年发起的关于网络的国际会议。IFIP网络会议的主要目标是将来自学术界和工业界的网络界成员聚集在一起，讨论计算机和通信网络广泛和快速发展领域的最新进展，并突出关键问题，确定趋势，制定网络领域的愿景。参加IFIP网络会议对研究生来说非常有价值。他们不仅将接触到该领域的最先进技术，还将有机会与来自世界各地机构的同行互动，会见领先的研究人员，并参与可能塑造该领域未来的讨论。更广泛的影响：该奖项将支持大约15名学生。它鼓励那些通常很难参加的学生参与，并将在促进IFIP网络会议与会者的多样性方面发挥重要作用。旅行补助金将针对研究生，特别是来自少数群体服务机构的女学生和代表不足的少数群体学生，这些机构传统上没有代表参加IFIP网络会议。将优先考虑那些将从参加这次会议中获得实质性好处但旅行资金有限的学生，以及将首次参加会议的初级研究生。该奖项反映了NSF的法定使命，并已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。

This travel grant is used to support US based graduate students to attend the International Federation for Information Processing (IFIP) Networking 2019 Conference, to be held in Warsaw, Poland from May 20 to May 22, 2019. The Networking series of conferences is the International Conference on Networking organized by the IFIP Technical Committee on Communication Systems (TC6) initiated in 2000. The main objectives of the IFIP Networking conference are to bring together members of the networking community from both academia and industry, to discuss recent advances in the broad and quickly-evolving fields of computer and communication networks, and to highlight key issues, identify trends, and develop visions for the networking domain. Attending the IFIP Networking conference is highly valuable for graduate students. Not only will they be exposed to the state-of-the-art in the field, but they will also have the opportunity to interact with peers from institutions worldwide, meet with leading researchers, and take part in discussions that are likely to shape the future of the field. Broader Impact: This award will support approximately fifteen students. It encourages participation by students who would normally find it difficult to attend, and will play an important role in promoting diversity in the IFIP Networking conference attendees. The travel grants will target graduate students, in particular female and underrepresented minority students from minority-serving institutions that are not traditionally represented in the IFIP Networking conference. Priority will be given to the students who will substantially benefit from attending this conference but have limited travel funds, as well as junior graduate students who will attend the conference for the first time.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.
