The Cluster 2021 Conference is a premier conference in the field of cluster computing and in the use of cluster systems for scientific and commercial applications. The conference brings together researchers, developers and users from academia, industry, laboratories, and commerce to discuss recent advances and trends in many areas related to cluster computing, including applications, architectures, programming, data and visualization. The conference will be held online from September 7-10, 2021. The project will fund students to participate in the conference, to engage deeply with the Cluster research community. The Cluster student participation program provides a comprehensive means for students to improve their overall research skills and career planning efforts, beyond presenting posters and papers. The project serves the national interest, as stated by NSF's mission, to promote the progress of science as it provides a forum to disseminate research efforts, connect researchers, and train the next generation of scholars.Due to Covid-19 safety issues, the conference will be fully virtual. The student program committee for the conference is recruiting students with an emphasis on diversity and inclusion of underrepresented groups and from a diverse set of institutions. The conference will run specific student-centric sessions during the conference, including sessions on research presentation training, research career guidance, industry interaction, and a meeting/discussion with the authors of the best paper candidates from the conference. While the project will enable funding a significant fraction of the students attending the conference, some students are presenting papers and posters at the conference and will be given priority for funding. The funding provided by NSF will have a significant impact on the careers of the future generation of researchers in cluster computing, while encouraging diversity in the 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.

集群2021会议是集群计算领域以及用于科学和商业应用的集群系统领域的主要会议。 会议汇集了学术界，行业，实验室和商业的研究人员，开发人员和用户，讨论与集群计算有关的许多领域的最新进展和趋势，包括应用程序，建筑，编程，编程，数据和可视化。 该会议将于2021年9月7日至10日在线举行。该项目将资助学生参加会议，与集群研究社区深入参与。 集群学生参与计划为学生提供了一种全面的手段，以提高其整体研究技能和职业计划工作，而不是介绍海报和论文。 正如NSF的使命所述，该项目为国家利益提供了促进科学进步，因为它提供了一个论坛来传播研究工作，联系研究人员并培训下一代学者。会议的学生计划委员会是招募学生，重点是多样性，包括代表性不足的群体以及来自各种机构的学生。 会议将在会议期间举办特定的以学生为中心的会议，包括有关研究演示培训，研究职业指导，行业互动的会议，以及与会议中最佳纸张候选人的作者的会议/讨论。 虽然该项目将使参加会议的大部分学生能够为大量学生提供资金，但一些学生正在会议上介绍论文和海报，并将优先获得资金。 NSF提供的资金将对集群计算中未来一代研究人员的职业产生重大影响，同时鼓励该领域的多样性。该奖项反映了NSF的法定任务，并被认为是值得通过基金会的知识分子优点和更广泛影响的评估标准通过评估来获得支持的。
