This project will enable up to 7 students from educational institutions in the US to attend the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) Communications Society Conference on Sensing, Communication, and Networking (SECON) conference - SECON 2019, to be held in Boston June 10 - 13, 2019. The conference has established itself as the IEEE Communication Society's premier venue for research in sensor, mesh, ad hoc networks and cyber physical systems. This award will especially benefit students who identify as members of under-represented groups (women, minorities and people with disabilities), and students who are attending the conference for the first time, from universities not represented in the conference program. Conference attendance is an integral part of the life of a researcher. By creating new opportunities for students, especially those from under-represented groups, to attend a high-quality conference, this project will benefit the research community in several ways. The students themselves benefit from (1) the opportunity to meet and interact with many other researchers in a favorable setting; (2) seeing research presented that may be related to what they are working on; and (3) the inspiration to pursue new directions. Leading conferences such as SECON also provide an opportunity for students to interact with industry researchers and recruiters helping pave the way for the next step in their careers. The research community benefits from the training and experience of the students in the pipeline, and the introduction of new diverse research perspectives.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.

该项目将使来自美国教育机构的最多7名学生参加将于2019年6月10日至13日在波士顿举行的电气和电子工程师协会（IEEE）通信协会传感，通信和网络会议（SECON）会议- SECON 2019。该会议已成为IEEE通信协会在传感器、网状、自组织网络和网络物理系统研究方面的首要场所。该奖项将特别有利于学生谁确定为代表性不足的群体（妇女，少数民族和残疾人）的成员，以及谁是第一次参加会议的学生，从大学没有代表在会议计划。参加会议是研究人员生活中不可或缺的一部分。通过为学生创造新的机会，特别是那些来自代表性不足的群体，参加高质量的会议，该项目将有利于研究界在几个方面。学生本身受益于（1）在有利的环境中与许多其他研究人员会面和互动的机会;（2）看到可能与他们正在研究的内容有关的研究;（3）追求新方向的灵感。领先的会议，如SECON也为学生提供了一个与行业研究人员和招聘人员互动的机会，帮助他们为职业生涯的下一步铺平道路。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。
