NSF Support for the 2011 USENIX Security Symposium, Financial Aid; August 2011; San Francisco CA

该奖项支持大约20名美国学生参加2011年USENIX安全研讨会，这是学术和工业背景的高级专业人员的主要论坛，他们将会面并讨论计算机系统和网络安全的最新进展。参加Security‘11和类似的会议是研究生院经验中宝贵和重要的一部分。它为学生提供了与该领域更资深的研究人员互动的机会，并使学生接触到该领域的领先工作。这一奖项将使原本无法参加会议的学生能够参加会议。Security‘11将于2011年8月10日至12日在加利福尼亚州旧金山举行。会议将包括一个为期三天的技术计划，许多研讨会将在同一地点举行。会议的目标是将研究人员、从业者、系统管理员、系统程序员和其他对计算机系统和网络安全的最新进展感兴趣的人聚集在一起。这种跨学科的强调使它非常适合作为学生参与的目标，这一活动一直吸引着大量的学生参与者。接受资助的学生将被强烈鼓励展示正在进行的海报和作品，作为评选过程的一部分。

This award supports approximately 20 US-based students to attend the 2011 USENIX Security Symposium, the premier forum for advanced professionals from academic and industrial backgrounds to meet and discuss the newest advances in the security of computer systems and networks. Participation in Security '11 and similar conferences is a valuable and important part of the graduate school experience. It provides students with the opportunity to interact with more senior researchers in the field and exposes students to leading work in the field. This award will enable students to participate who would otherwise be unable to attend the conference. Security '11 will be held August 10-12, 2011, in San Francisco, CA. The conference will consist of a three-day technical program, with numerous workshops co-located. The goal of the conference is to bring together researchers, practitioners, system administrators, system programmers, and others interested in the latest advances in the security of computer systems and networks. This cross-disciplinary emphasis makes it well suited as a target for student participation, and this event has always drawn a large number of student attendees. Students receiving assistance will be strongly encouraged to present posters and works in progress as part of the selection process.
