Student Travel Support for the 47th International Symposium on Computer Architecture (ISCA)

国际计算机体系结构研讨会（International Symposium on Computer Architecture，ISCA）是研究计算机体系结构、硬件/软件接口和系统体系结构的主要论坛。该奖项为2020年5月在西班牙瓦伦西亚参加这一旗舰会议的多达50名学生提供旅行支持。ISCA包括以新的方式直接针对这些新问题的系统研究。从历史上看，该会议吸引了来自学术界和工业界的顶级研究论文，会议记录中发表的许多创新在处理器行业的历史上具有影响力。提交论文的接受率通常在15- 20%之间。该奖项将有两个主要的直接好处。首先，由于这种旅行支持使学生的出勤率更高，ISCA会议得到了加强，因为他们是该领域的下一代研究人员。其次，那些接受旅行支持的学生个人受益于与同行和专家互动的机会，以及建立有助于他们职业生涯的联系。活动中的本科生研讨会是计算机体系结构社区努力增加多样性的一部分，旅行资金也旨在支持参加活动的本科生中代表性不足的群体的学生。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。

The International Symposium on Computer Architecture (ISCA) is a premier forum for research on computer architecture, the hardware/software interface, and systems architecture. This award provides travel support for up to 50 students attending this flagship conference in May 2020 in Valencia, Spain. ISCA embraces systems research that directly targets these new problems in new ways. Historically, the conference has attracted top research papers from both academia and industry, and many innovations published in the proceedings have been influential in the history of the processor industry. The acceptance rates for submitted papers is typically between 15-20%.This award will have two primary direct benefits. First, The ISCA conference is strengthened as a result of better student attendance that this travel support enables, since they are the next-generation of the research workforce in this domain. Second, those students receiving travel support personally benefit from the opportunity to interact with peers and experts, as well as to establish connections that will help their professional careers. An undergraduate workshop at the event is one part of the computer architecture communities' efforts towards increasing diversity, and the travel funding seeks to also support students from underrepresented groups within the undergraduate attendees at the event.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.
