This award will support students to attend the Algorithmic Game Theory (AGT) Mentoring Workshop and the 20th Association for Computing Machinery (ACM) Conference on Economics and Computation (EC), June 24 - 28, 2019, in Phoenix, AZ. The field of Algorithmic Game Theory is at the intersection of theoretical computer science and economics. This makes it most suitable to handle foundational issues posed by tremendous growth in economic and social systems on the Internet, and therefore the field has been thriving in the past few decades. Economics and Computation is the leading conference in this area, with the main aim of strengthening the field by bringing together both computer scientists and economists. The investigators are organizing a one-day AGT mentoring workshop to be co-located with EC. The workshop will help to mentor and train students pursuing research careers in the field of AGT. Travel funds from NSF will facilitate participants' attendance at the mentoring workshop and EC, where they will learn about current research and interact with leaders in the field. The award will cover travel, lodging and registration fees for approximately 8 to 10 carefully selected students who otherwise would find it difficult to attend. The selection criteria for the travel award and the workshop program will aim to encourage participation by underrepresented minorities and women.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2019年6月24-28日在亚利桑那州凤凰城举行的算法博弈论(AGT)指导研讨会和第20届计算机械协会(ACM)经济与计算会议(EC)。算法博弈论领域是理论、计算机科学和经济学的交汇点。这使得它最适合于处理互联网上经济和社会系统的巨大增长带来的基础性问题，因此该领域在过去几十年里蓬勃发展。经济学和计算是这一领域的领先会议，主要目的是通过将计算机科学家和经济学家聚集在一起来加强该领域。调查人员正在组织一个为期一天的AGT指导研讨会，与EC合办。讲习班将帮助指导和培训在AGT领域寻求研究职业的学生。来自国家科学基金会的旅行基金将帮助参与者参加指导研讨会和EC，在那里他们将了解当前的研究并与该领域的领导者互动。该奖项将为大约8至10名精心挑选的学生支付旅费、住宿费和注册费，否则他们将很难参加。旅行奖和研讨会计划的评选标准将旨在鼓励代表不足的少数族裔和妇女参与。这一奖项反映了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。
