Student Travel Support for the 49th International Conference on Very Large Databases 2023

所提供的支持将使约 15 名美国学生能够参加将于 2023 年 8 月 28 日至 9 月 1 日在加拿大温哥华举行的第 49 届超大型数据库国际会议 (VLDB 2023) (https://vldb.org/2023/)。 VLDB 会议是一项重要的国际技术活动，以数据库研究和实践的各个方面为中心。 VLDB 会议提供了一个论坛，促进学生和研究人员确定构建能够更有效工作的大型数据库管理系统的科学基础。将努力扩大代表性不足的学生和研究人员的参与。因此，这次会议将直接有助于培训下一代科学家，他们既是数据库管理系统设计和实施方面的技术消费者又是开发者。美国学生的参与将对培养一支能够应对未来新兴数据科学挑战的高素质劳动力产生直接影响。数据库研究深刻影响着机器学习和人工智能、健康科学、物联网（IoT）、面向服务的计算、实时业务分析、社交计算等领域。VLDB系列会议为来自学术界、工业界和政府机构的研究人员和从业者提供了一个绝佳的机会，分享他们在大规模数据管理和分析的各个方面的研究和经验。会议的目标是多方面的：（1）提供一个国际论坛，分享与调查下一代数据库研究的主要挑战相关的研究成果； （2）通过小组、海报、教程、学生学者圆桌会议等形式激发数据库领域研究的互动讨论； (3) 通过许多会议和研讨会演讲、互动海报会议以及小组会议和分组会议来激励和吸引未来几代研究人员。 VLDB 2020 论文集将在 VLDB 捐赠基金论文集 (http://www.vldb.org/pvldb/) 上广泛公开。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 provided support will enable about 15 US-based students to attend and participate in the 49th International Conference on Very Large Databases (VLDB 2023) to be held in Vancouver, Canada from Aug 28 to Sep. 1, 2023 (https://vldb.org/2023/). The VLDB conferences are a premier international technical event centered on various aspects of database research and practice. The VLDB conference provides a forum that promotes students and researchers to identify scientific foundations for building large-scale database management systems that can work ever more effectively. Efforts will be made to broaden the participation of underrepresented students and researchers. The conference will thus contribute directly to training the next generation of scientists who are both consumers and developers of technology in database management system design and implementation. The involvement of US-based students will have a direct impact in creating a highly-qualified workforce who can take on the emerging data science challenges of the future.Database research profoundly influences domains that include machine learning and AI, health sciences, Internet of Things (IoT), service-oriented computing, real-time business analytics, social computing, etc. The VLDB conference series provides researchers and practitioners from academia, industry and government agencies with an excellent opportunity to share their research and experiences on all aspects of data management and analysis at scale. The aims of the conference are multi-fold: (1) to provide an international forum for sharing research results related to the investigation of major challenges in next-generation database research; (2) to stimulate interactive discussions on research in the database area through panels, posters, tutorials, student scholar roundtables, etc.; and (3) to motivate and engage future generations of researchers via the many conference and workshop presentations, interactive poster sessions, and panel and breakout sessions. The VLDB 2020 Proceedings are will be broadly accessible at The Proceedings of the VLDB Endowment (http://www.vldb.org/pvldb/).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.
