Student Travel Support for IEEE INFOCOM 2012

2012年IEEE Infocom计算机通信大会将于2012年3月25日至3月30日在美国佛罗里达州奥兰多举行。这一卓越的技术会议是展示计算机通信领域新研究成果的主要场所，该领域的研究人员和从业者广泛参加。参加像Infocom这样的会议对研究生的发展至关重要。与会者有机会介绍他们的工作，参加小组和主旨会议，并与数百名在该领域进行前沿研究的其他人互动。广泛影响：这项提议为大约15名美国研究生提供旅行支持，以参加这次首发会议。旅行奖将面向研究生，特别是女性和代表性不足的少数族裔学生，因为参加会议是他们教育经历的重要组成部分，而且他们的旅行资金往往有限。

The 2012 IEEE INFOCOM Conference on Computer Communications will be held in in Orlando, Florida, USA from March 25 to March 30, 2012. This preeminent technical conference is the primary venue for presenting new research results in the area of computer communications, and is widely attended by researchers and practitioners in the field. Attending conferences such as INFOCOM is of paramount importance for the development of graduate students. Participants have the opportunity to present their work, attend panel and keynote sessions, and interact with hundreds of others performing leading-edge research in the field.Broader Impact: This proposal provides travel support for approximately fifteen graduate students in the United States to attend this premiere conference. The travel awards will target graduate students, in particular, women and under-represented minority students, since attending conferences is an important part of their educational experience, and they often have limited travel funds.
