SC08 Broader Engagement Program

电气和电子工程师协会要求在超级计算（SC） 2008会议上为更广泛的参与（BE）计划的参与者提供差旅支持。该项目旨在增加美国本科生、研究生、教师、行业专业人士和研究人员学习高性能计算（HPC）的机会。它强调在HPC社区中代表性不足的群体成员的参与：非洲裔美国人、西班牙裔美国人、美洲原住民、阿拉斯加原住民、夏威夷原住民、太平洋岛民、残疾人和妇女。参与者将有机会与导师联系，并参加博士研讨会，学生招聘会和其他特别会议。这个奖项将使更多的参与者有可能参加。

The Institute of Electrical and Electronic Engineers requests travel support for participants in the Broader Engagement (BE) Program at the Supercomputing (SC) 2008 Conference. That program aims to increase opportunities for U.S. undergraduate, graduate, faculty, industry professionals, and researchers to learn about high performance computing (HPC). It emphasizes the participation of members of the groups that are underrepresented within the HPC community: African Americans, Hispanics, Native Americans, Alaska Natives, Native Hawaiians, Pacific Islanders, persons with disabilities, and women. Participants will have the opportunity to connect with mentors, and attend a doctoral symposium, a student job fair, and other special sessions. This award will make it possible for additional participants to attend.
