Travel to the ACM/SIGIR International Conference on Research and Development in Information Retrieval: Grenoble France, June 13-15, 1988

该奖项为参加ACM/SIGIR信息检索研究与发展国际会议的20名与会者提供旅费。本次会议由法国精灵信息实验室（IMAG）与美国合作主办。计算机协会（ACM）信息检索特别兴趣小组。世界范围内每天都会产生大量的文本和其他非数字信息。有效地存储、访问和检索这些信息的需要使得信息检索研究的问题高度相关。通过参加ACM/SIGIR国际会议，美国科学家在全球信息检索研究人员社区中保持了积极的作用和领导地位。

This award provides travel funding for twenty participants to attend the ACM/SIGIR International Conference on Research and Development in Information Retrieval. This conference is sponsored by the Laboratoire de Genie Informatique - IMAG - of France, in cooperation with the (U.S.) Association for Computing Machinery (ACM) Special Interest Group in Information Retrieval (SIGIR). Massive amounts of textual and other non-numeric information are generated daily worldwide. The need to store, access, and retrieve this information effectively makes the issues of information retrieval research highly relevant. By participating in the ACM/SIGIR International Conference, American scientists maintain their active role and leadership in the worldwide community of researchers in information retrieval.
