NSF Student Participation Grant for 2020 IEEE International Conference on Green and Sustainable Computing (IEEE IGSC)

该提案是为了支持参加2020年国际绿色与可持续计算大会(IGSC)。由于新冠肺炎的流行，今年的会议是虚拟的。不会有旅行，但该奖项允许更多的人参与。IGSC已经确立了自己作为这一领域主要会议的地位。绿色计算是一个新兴的研究领域，它正在将自己确立为一个跨学科的研究领域，横跨计算机科学和工程、电气工程和其他工程学科。绿色计算或可持续计算是有效利用计算资源的研究和实践，这反过来又会影响一系列经济、生态和社会目标。这种做法包括实施高能效的中央处理器和外围设备以及减少资源消耗。此外，IGSC涵盖了利用计算和信息系统实现电网、环境、气候、农业和许多其他社会和经济应用的可持续性的应用和系统。会议为研究人员、行业参与者和学生提供了一个论坛，让他们越来越多地认识到有效利用计算资源的研究和实践，这反过来可以影响一系列经济、生态和社会目标。拨款鼓励对绿色或可持续建筑、网络、电路设计、软件和应用感兴趣的学生，以及对在其他领域利用计算实现可持续发展感兴趣的学生，在他们选择的主题上找到有用的信息。它也为全国许多学生提供了一个极好的机会，让他们熟悉并从事一个具有全国重要性的新研究领域。没有IGSC论文的学生或没有资源允许参加IGSC的学生将有资格获得这些资金。该奖项反映了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。

This proposal is for support of participation in the 2020 International Green and Sustainable Computing Conference (IGSC). Due to the COVID pandemic, this year's conference is virtual. There will be no travel but the award allows for expanded participation. IGSC has established itself as the premier conference in this area. Green computing is a newly evolving research area that is establishing itself as an interdisciplinary research area spanning across the fields of computer science and engineering, electrical engineering and other engineering disciplines. Green computing or sustainable computing is the study and practice of using computing resources efficiently, which in turn can impact a spectrum of economic, ecological, and social objectives. Such practices include the implementation of energy-efficient central processing units and peripherals as well as reduced resource consumption. In addition, IGSC covers applications and systems that use computing and information systems to accomplish sustainability in power grid, environment, climate, agriculture, and many other social and economic applications. The conference offers researchers, industry participants, and students the forum for a growing awareness of the study and practice of using computing resources efficiently, which in turn can impact a spectrum of economic, ecological, and social objectives.The grant encourages students interested in green or sustainable architecture, networks, circuit design, software, and applications, as well as students interested in use of computing for sustainability in other areas, to find useful information on the topics of their choice. It also provides an excellent opportunity for many students nationwide to get familiar with and engage in a new research area of national importance. Students not having a paper in IGSC or otherwise without the resources that allow the opportunity to attend IGSC will be eligible for these funds.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.
