The 2019 ACM/IEEE SEC Conference (Symposium on Edge Computing) will be held in Washington DC from Nov. 7-9, 2019. This leading technical conference is the primary venue for presenting new research results in the area of "edge computing", a new paradigm in which the resources of a small data center are placed at the edge of the Internet, in close proximity to mobile devices, sensors, and end users, and the emerging Internet of Things. The conference will consist of technical paper presentations, panels, PhD forums, posters, and demonstrations. It will also feature keynote speeches from leading researchers and practitioners in the field. Participation in SEC 2019 and similar conferences are valuable and important activities of the graduate school experience. It provides students with the opportunity to interact with more senior researchers, and exposes students to leading work and practical industry practices in this important area of research. This may have an important impact on career development. The goal of the funds is to support approximately 20 student participants at recognized US institutions of higher education. Funds will be dispersed with preference given to students who would not otherwise be able to attend the conference and students who are not already scheduled to present a paper, paying particular attention to diversity and relevance of the student's research interest.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.

2019年ACM/IEEE SEC会议（边缘计算研讨会）将于2019年11月7日至9日在华盛顿举行。这一领先的技术会议是展示“边缘计算”领域新研究成果的主要场所，边缘计算是一种新的范例，其中小型数据中心的资源被放置在互联网的边缘，靠近移动的设备、传感器和最终用户，以及新兴的物联网。会议将包括技术论文演示、小组讨论、博士论坛、海报和演示。它还将包括该领域主要研究人员和从业人员的主题演讲。参加SEC 2019和类似的会议是研究生院经验的宝贵和重要的活动。它为学生提供了与更高级的研究人员互动的机会，并使学生接触到这一重要研究领域的领先工作和实际行业实践。这可能对职业发展产生重要影响。该基金的目标是支持大约20名学生参加美国公认的高等教育机构。基金会将优先分配给无法参加会议的学生和尚未安排论文发表的学生，特别关注学生研究兴趣的多样性和相关性。该奖项反映了NSF的法定使命，并通过使用基金会的智力价值和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估，被认为值得支持。
