Travel: NSF Student Travel Grant for the 2024 HPCA/CGO/PPoPP Symposia

该奖项为NSF提供支持，以扩大对三个共同举办的会议的参与-IEEE高性能计算机体系结构国际研讨会（HPCA），IEEE/ACM代码生成和优化国际研讨会（CGO）和ACM SIGPLAN并行编程原理与实践研讨会（PPoPP）-于2024年3月在苏格兰爱丁堡举行。HPCA/CGO/PPoPP专题讨论会被广泛认为是计算机体系结构、并行程序设计和并行编程领域的顶级会议。参加这些会议的学生将受益于激发智力的研究，获得尖端技术，方法和技术，同时与他们专业领域的高级研究人员进行交流。这笔旅费赠款旨在通过使更多的学生能够参加这些会议来增加这些会议的影响力，否则他们可能会受到经济限制的阻碍。该奖项将帮助支付24名学生出席会议的费用。学生的选择过程将考虑一系列标准，包括优点，经济需求，代表性不足（重点是性别，少数民族地位和地理多样性）和资历（优先考虑更低年级的学生）。该奖项进一步丰富了与会者的多样性，确保了赠款支持的与会者中代表性不足和其他群体的代表性。该奖项反映了NSF的法定使命，并被认为是值得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的支持。

This award provides NSF support to broaden participation in three co-located conferences -- the IEEE International Symposium on High-Performance Computer Architecture (HPCA), IEEE/ACM International Symposium on Code Generation and Optimization (CGO), and ACM SIGPLAN Symposium on Principles and Practice of Parallel Programming (PPoPP) -- held in Edinburgh, Scotland in March 2024. The HPCA/CGO/PPoPP symposia are widely recognized as top-tier venues in the fields of Computer Architecture, Compilers, and Parallel Programming, respectively. Students attending these conferences benefit from exposure to intellectually stimulating research, gaining access to cutting-edge techniques, methodologies and technologies, while engaging with senior researchers in their areas of expertise.This travel grant aims to increase the impact of these conferences by enabling the participation of additional students who might otherwise be hindered by financial constraints. The award will help defray the cost of conference attendance for 24 students. The selection process for students will consider a combination of criteria, including merit, financial need, underrepresentation (with a focus on gender, minority status, and geographic diversity), and seniority (with a preference for more junior students). The award further enriches the diversity of conference attendees, ensuring a well-balanced representation of underrepresented and other groups among the participants supported by the grant. The conferences are committed to selecting at least 25% of their participants from underrepresented minority and gender groups.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.
