NSF: STOC 2024 Conference Student Travel Support

计算理论研讨会（STOC）会议被公认为全球理论计算机科学（TCS）最重要的学术会议之一。TheoryFest是STOC的一个卫星活动，包括各种研讨会和其他项目。这项旅行补助金的目的是使来自代表性不足的社区的学生能够参加STOC 2024和TheoryFest以及TCS for All活动，这些活动将与STOC重合并位于同一地点。这种财政支持将为学生提供参加这些领先会议的机会，这不仅提高了他们的智力发展，而且通过鼓励与多元化的指导小组进行互动来促进社区的丰富，为活动的成功做出了重大贡献。有了这笔资金，我们的目标是为15名学生提供财政支持，参加STOC 2024.This奖项反映了NSF的法定使命，并已被认为是值得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的支持。

The Symposium on Theory of Computing (STOC) conference is recognized as one of the foremost academic conferences in theoretical computer science (TCS) globally. TheoryFest, a satellite event of STOC, comprises various workshops and additional programs. The purpose of this travel grant is to enable students from underrepresented communities to attend STOC 2024 and TheoryFest and the TCS for All events, which will coincide and be co-located with STOC. This financial support will offer students the opportunity to participate in these leading conferences, which not only enhances their intellectual growth but also fosters community enrichment by encouraging interaction with a diverse mentoring panel, contributing significantly to the event's success. With this funding we aim to provide financial support to fifteen students to attend STOC 2024.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.
