ISCAS 2022 Student Participation Grant

该提案要求资助一些美国学生参加2022年版本的年度IEEE电路与系统国际研讨会（ISCAS），旨在让他们接触该学科，并鼓励他们从事电路与系统研究领域的新兴问题。参加这次研讨会被认为是计算机工程学生研究生院经验的重要组成部分，提供了与高级研究人员互动并接触该领域前沿工作的机会。这种支持将使科学知识能够传播给没有经验的学生。这种学生旅行支持也将促进有前途的研究生的发展，因此也将间接帮助培训未来的劳动力在计算机工程的重要领域。妇女和代表性不足的群体将得到适当考虑，通过这一赠款获得支持。电路与系统国际研讨会（ISCAS）超过50年来一直是首屈一指的会议，其中新兴的趋势和电路与系统研究的新概念进行了探讨。2022年的年会将在5年后回到德克萨斯州奥斯汀的美国土地上。本次会议的2022年版将解决该领域的主要趋势和挑战，包括主题演讲和全体会议，技术文件会议，演讲，小组讨论，特别会议。会议委员会已经建立了充分的评估标准，从通过公开广告形成的申请人中选择合格的学生。虽然申请的资金将主要用于支持研究生，但委员会也可能考虑少数本科生申请人，以便更好地接触该领域的潜在研究人员。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。

This proposal requests funding to support a number of US-based students for attending the 2022 version of the annual IEEE International Symposium on Circuits and Systems (ISCAS) with the intention of exposing them to the discipline and to encourage them to pursue careers in emerging issues in the area of Circuits and Systems research. Participation in this symposium is considered an important part of the graduate-school experience of students in computer engineering, providing the opportunity to interact with senior researchers and to be exposed to leading-edge work in the field. The support will enable dissemination of scientific knowledge to students who would otherwise not have the experience. This student-travel support will also facilitate the development of promising graduate students, and will thus indirectly also help train the workforce of the future in the important area of computer engineering. Women and underrepresented groups will be given due consideration for receiving support through this grant.The International Symposium on Circuits and Systems (ISCAS) for more than 50 years has been the premier conference where emerging trends and novel concepts of Circuits and Systems research have been explored. The 2022 version of this annual conference will return to the US soil in Austin, TX after 5 years. The 2022 edition of this conference will address key trends and challenges in the area and includes Keynote and Plenary Talks, Technical Paper Sessions, Tutorials, Panels, Special Sessions. The conference committee has set up adequate evaluation criteria to select qualified students from a pool of applicants formed via open advertisement. While the requested funds will primarily be used for supporting graduate students, the committee may also consider a small number of undergraduate applicants in order to better reach a diverse population of potential researchers in this 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.
