6th INFORMS Simulation Society Research Workshop; University Park, Pennsylvania; June 22-24, 2020

运筹学和管理科学研究所（INFORMS）模拟学会研究研讨会是围绕新兴研究主题召集模拟方法研究人员的定期活动，其目标是鼓励在模拟和相关领域工作的研究生和初级研究人员参与。第六届研讨会的主题是“从数据到决策：应对仿真研究中的不确定性和非平稳性”，这个版本的研讨会将为研究生和初级教师提供为期一天的仿真暑期学校，学习仿真建模的基础主题。该奖项将为参加研讨会和暑期学校的八名研究生和初级教师提供资金，每个人都将在研讨会上发表他或她的演讲或海报。参加研讨会和暑期学校将为学生和初级教师提供一个机会，以突出他们正在进行的工作，并与来自工业界和学术界的其他研究人员建立联系。第六届INFORMS模拟学会研究研讨会将于2020年6月22日至24日在宾夕法尼亚州大学公园举行。旅行支持机会的邀请将被发送到各种邮件列表，特别努力通过吸引来自工程领域代表性不足群体的学生和初级教师来扩大参与。通过为研究生和初级教师提供旅行资金，NSF将帮助降低出勤成本，鼓励学生参与，并将支持STEM学生参与模拟领域的新兴研究。该奖项反映了美国国家科学基金会的法定使命，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。

The Institute for Operations Research and the Management Sciences (INFORMS) Simulation Society Research Workshop is a periodic event to convene researchers in simulation methods around an emerging research theme, with a stated goal of encouraging participation of graduate students and junior researchers working in simulation and related areas. The theme of the 6th Workshop is "From Data to Decision Making: Contending with Uncertainty and Non-stationarity in Simulation Research", and this version of the workshop will feature a day-long simulation summer school for graduate students and junior faculty members on foundational topics in simulation modeling. This award will provide funds for eight graduate students and junior faculty to attend the Workshop and Summer School, each of whom will be presenting his or her talk or poster at the workshop. Participation in the Workshop and Summer School will provide students and junior faculty with an opportunity to highlight their ongoing work and network with other researchers from industry and academia. The 6th INFORMS Simulation Society Research Workshop will be held June 22-24, 2020, in University Park, Pennsylvania. The solicitation for the travel support opportunity will be sent to a variety of mailing lists, with particular effort to broaden participation by attracting students and junior faculty from underrepresented groups in engineering. By providing travel funds for graduate students and junior faculty, NSF will help to decrease the cost of attendance to encourage participation of students and will support the engagement of STEM students in emerging research in the field of simulation.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.
