The 2024 Machine Learning and Systems (MLSys) conference is the seventh in an established series of symposia that brings together industry, faculty, and student researchers working on machine learning and computer systems. The conference is held at the Santa Clara Convention Center in California, United States, May 13th to 16th, 2024. The program includes research papers from academia and industry, three keynote talks by internationally recognized leaders in the field, and a day-long young professionals symposium. This award provides funding to help cover the travel costs for U.S.-based graduate and undergraduate students to attend the conference. Students receiving travel support benefit from the opportunity to engage in technical, professional, educational and social exchanges. The conference serves as an open forum to exchange research results and develop new ideas, as well as an educational platform to expose students to new research methodologies, tools, and infrastructures, and as a social event to network and prepare students as future researchers and leaders.The conference targets research at the intersection of machine learning and systems, which historically has not been particularly well addressed by existing Machine Learning or Computer Systems focused conferences. The conference elicits new connections amongst these fields, including identifying best practices and design principles for learning systems, as well as developing novel learning methods and theory tailored to practical machine learning workflows. The award will enable the participation of students who would otherwise be unable to attend, particularly students under-represented in the machine learning and computer systems fields. Moreover, the undergraduate students who are supported gain valuable exposure to the forefront of research in these areas, encouraging them to further their education by continuing on to graduate school.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.

2024年机器学习和系统（MLSys）会议是一系列研讨会中的第七届，汇集了从事机器学习和计算机系统研究的行业，教师和学生研究人员。会议于2024年5月13日至16日在美国加州圣克拉拉会议中心举行。该计划包括来自学术界和工业界的研究论文，该领域国际公认的领导人的三个主题演讲，以及为期一天的年轻专业人士研讨会。该奖项提供资金，以帮助支付美国的旅行费用-基础研究生和本科生参加会议。获得旅行支持的学生将有机会参与技术，专业，教育和社会交流。会议作为一个开放的论坛，交流研究成果和发展新的想法，以及一个教育平台，让学生接触新的研究方法，工具和基础设施，并作为一个社会活动，网络和培养学生成为未来的研究人员和领导者。会议的目标是研究机器学习和系统的交叉，在历史上，现有的机器学习或计算机系统会议并没有特别好地解决这个问题。会议将这些领域之间建立新的联系，包括确定学习系统的最佳实践和设计原则，以及开发针对实际机器学习工作流程的新型学习方法和理论。 该奖项将使那些无法参加的学生能够参与，特别是在机器学习和计算机系统领域代表性不足的学生。此外，获得资助的本科生还可以接触到这些领域的前沿研究，鼓励他们继续深造，继续读研究生。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。
