CSR-EHS: Supporting Under-Represented Student Travel to RTAS

实时与嵌入式技术与应用研讨会(RTAS)是由IEEE计算机学会部分赞助的年度研讨会。研讨会传统上汇聚了嵌入式和实时计算、控制和通信等广泛领域的研究人员。研讨会于2005年3月7日至10日在加利福尼亚州旧金山举行。为了确保在传播这次研讨会的成果方面产生更广泛的影响，并引起嵌入式和混合系统领域的年轻研究人员的兴趣，该NSF奖设立了许多旅行补助金。这些助学金方便学生前往参加2005年区域贸易协定，以及一个关于嵌入式计算当前挑战的会议前研讨会。这样做的目的是鼓励那些来自计算机科学领域代表性不足的群体的学生参加，否则他们就没有机会参观这样的会议。

The Real-time and Embedded Technology and Application Symposium (RTAS) is an annual symposium partially sponsored by the IEEE Computer Society. The symposium traditionally brings together researchers in the broad field of embedded and real-time computing, control, and communication. The symposium took place in San Francisco, CA, March 7-10th, 2005. To ensure a broader impact in disseminating the results of this symposium, and to interest young researches in the field of embedded and hybrid systems, this NSF award creates a number of travel grants. These grants facilitate student travel to attend RTAS 2005 as well as a pre-conference workshop on current challenges in embedded computing. The purpose is to encourage the attendance of those students from groups under-represented in computer science and who otherwise would nothave the opportunity to visit such a conference.
