Travel: WINS Travel Funds in Support of SCinet at SC23

该项目支持六名CNET志愿者参加SCinet活动，以支持定于2023年11月12日至17日在丹佛举行的2023年超级计算会议（SC23）。 志愿者将在会议网络的基础建设中获得实际经验。2023年将是该计划启动以来最具多样性的一年，其中包括许多来自代表性不足的团体的参与者。2023年的志愿者将参加SCinet，这是世界上最快和最先进的计算机网络之一，为年度超级计算会议（SC）提供支持。 预期成果包括：SCNET 23志愿者开发新的技术技能，接触标准工作环境之外的技术或设备，扩大他们的专业网络，提高协作和沟通技能，将SCNET期间开发的技能应用于他们的家乡机构，并获得未来的专业发展机会。 提议提供的旅费将继续扩大和扩充网络工程师和信息技术专业人员的知识和培训，他们希望积累专门知识，继续在网络和计算机系统方面接受教育和从事职业。 通过这个项目，国家科学基金会的使命通过为多样化的劳动力提供更多的培训和职业机会而得到加强。这个奖项反映了NSF的法定使命，并通过使用基金会的知识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 project supports six WINS volunteers to participate in SCinet activities in support of the 2023 Supercomputing Conference (SC23) scheduled November 12 - 17, 2023 in Denver, CO. Volunteers will gain hands on experience in the ground-up construction of the conference network. WINS strives to have a diverse representation of organizations and applicant backgrounds in the group selected each year, with the 2023 group expected to be the most diverse since the start of the program, including many participants from underrepresented groups.WINS volunteers will participate in SCinet, one of the fastest and most advanced computer networks in the world which supports the annual Supercomputing Conference (SC). Expected outcomes include WINS SC23 volunteers developing new technical skills, gaining exposure to technologies or equipment outside their standard work environment, adding to their professional network, improving collaboration and communication skills, applying the skills developed during SCinet at their home institution, and access to future professional development opportunities. The travel funded by the proposal will continue the broadening and expansion of knowledge and training for network engineers and information technology professionals who desire to build expertise and continue their education and careers in network and computer systems. Through this program, the National Science Foundation’s mission is strengthened by opening more training and career opportunities for a diverse workforce.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.
