NSF Student Travel Grant for 2020 IEEE/IFIP Network Operations and Management Symposium (NOMS'2020)

电气和电子工程师协会(IEEE)/国际信息处理联合会（IFIP）网络运营和管理研讨会（NOMS）是网络和服务管理领域的主要会议。NOMS 2020将于2020年4月20日至24日在匈牙利布达佩斯举行。参加NOMS会议将使学生接触到网络和服务管理领域的前沿研究课题，并受到来自世界各地在这些领域工作的研究的启发。学生也可以利用这个机会在会议的社交和学术活动中与其他有相似兴趣的研究人员建立合作关系。该项目为在美学生参加NOMS 2020会议提供差旅支持。旅行奖的重点是吸引第一次参加会议的人和少数族裔学生参加会议，因为参加会议是他们教育经历的重要组成部分，而他们的旅行资金往往有限。研究界和技术人员受益于学生的进步，以及通过将新参与者引入研究领域而产生的新想法。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。

Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE)/International Federation for Information Processing (IFIP) Network Operations and Management Symposium (NOMS) is a leading conference in network and service management. NOMS 2020 will be held in April 20-24, 2020 in Budapest, Hungary. Attending the NOMS conference will expose students to frontier research topics in the area of network and service management and to be inspired by researches from around the world working in these fields. Students may also utilize this opportunity to establish collaboration relationships with other researchers who share similar interests during the conference social and academic activities. This project provides travel support for students in the United States to attend the NOMS 2020 conference. The travel awards will focus on bringing in first-time attendees and under-represented minority students into the conference, since attending conferences is an important part of their educational experience, and they often have limited travel funds. The research community and the technical workforce benefit from the improvement of students in the pipeline, and new ideas generated through introducing new participants into the research field.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.
