Student Participation Grant for 2019 IEEE Midwest Symposium on Circuits and Systems (MWSCAS)

该奖项支持学生参加第62届中西部电路与系统研讨会（MWCAS）将于2019年8月在德克萨斯州达拉斯举行。MWCAS是电路和系统领域的主要国际会议。除了该领域领先专家的教程，主题演讲和全体演讲外，学术和行业研究人员以及学生将参加会议，在讲座和海报会议中展示他们最近的工作。会议将举办学生论文比赛，以鼓励最优秀的学生跟上最现代的技术。该补助金的获得者将从提交论文的学生中选出，并将支付他们在会议上的部分差旅费和注册费。美国公民和永久居民将在选择过程中获得最高优先权。学生在这一过程中获得的经验将成为他们教育的宝贵组成部分。由于参加会议的工业界人士很多，这些经验也将有助于他们在工业界获得职位，从而为美国急需的技术劳动力作出贡献。甄选委员会将适当注意包括妇女、少数民族和其他代表性不足的群体，以便从这笔赠款中提供支助。会议所涉及的技术领域一般是与现代计算机硬件技术有关的电子电路和系统。更具体地说，将涵盖的广泛主题将包括但不限于：模拟和混合信号集成电路，生物启发系统和绿色技术，神经网络&神经形态工程，人工智能，包括深度学习和机器人技术，物联网（IoT），自主系统，射频微波和光学系统，图像/视频处理和多媒体系统，该奖项反映了NSF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 award supports student travel for attending the 62nd Midwest Symposium on Circuits and Systems (MWCAS) to be held in Dallas, TX in August 2019. The MWCAS is a premier international conference in the field of circuits and systems. Other than tutorials, keynote and plenary lectures by leading experts in the field, the conference will be attended by academic and industry researchers and students to present their recent work both in lecture sessions and poster sessions. The conference will host a student paper competition to encourage the best students to keep abreast of the most modern technologies. Recipients of this grant will selected from the pool of those students presenting papers and will be paid part of their expenses for travel and registration at the conference. US citizens and permanent residents will be given the highest priority in the selection process. The experience gained by the students in the process is going to be an invaluable component of their education. Due to a good number industrial participants in the meeting the experience will also help them to secure positions in industry, thus contributing to the much needed technological workforce of the United States. The selection committee will pay due attention to include women, minority and other underrepresented groups for providing support from this grant. The technical areas covered by the conference will, in general, be electronic circuits and systems relevant, among other problems, to modern computing hardware technologies. More specifically, the broad spectrum of topics to be covered will include, but will not be limited to: Analog and Mixed Signal Integrated Circuits, Bio-Inspired systems and Green Technologies, Neural Networks & Neuromorphic Engineering, Artificial Intelligence including Deep Learning and Robotics, Internet of Things (IoTs), Autonomous Systems, Radio Frequency Microwave and Optical Systems, Image/Video Processing and Multimedia Systems, Power Management Energy Harvesting and Wireless Power, Trusted Electronics and Security, MEMS and NEMS Technologies, Nano-electronics and Nanotechnology.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.
