2013 IEEE Conference on Decision and Control. To be Held in Florence, Italy, December,10-13, 2013.

该提案请求为参加第52届IEEE决策与控制会议(CDC)的学生提供旅费，该会议将于2013年12月10日至13日在意大利佛罗伦萨举行。IEEE CDC是IEEE控制系统学会的年度旗舰会议，也是系统和控制领域的主要国际会议之一，具有理论和应用两方面的特点。这笔资金将为来自美国高校的多达30名学生提供部分支持，让他们参加会议并展示他们的研究成果。智力优势：系统和控制理论普遍存在于从汽车到航空航天系统、生物医学系统、工业自动化系统、机器人和许多其他系统的现代、复杂的技术系统中。越来越明显的是，目前在许多技术前沿的研究受到控制论和系统论的基本思想的严重影响。最近举行的第51届IEEE CDC收到了2300多份意见书，接受了1262份报告，其中许多是由学生和他们的教师顾问共同撰写的。拟议的资金使用的学术价值是，研究生将第一手看到控制和系统的基础是如何发展和塑造许多应用领域的研究前沿的。更广泛的影响：通过1000多个预期的研究报告，包括全体讲座、研讨会和展览，CDC为与会者提供了接触新兴控制研究和技术领域的最新技术。这种旅行支持的更广泛影响是，它将有助于培训下一代系统和控制研究人员和从业者。美国未来的安全和福祉有赖于在控制技术、系统工程和自动化等关键领域保持训练有素的科学家和工程师队伍。根据拟议的项目，将得到支持的学生代表着IEEE控制系统学会未来的技术领袖，该学会是该学科领域的世界领先专业组织。

This proposal requests support for student travel to the 52nd IEEE Conference on Decision and Control (CDC), which will be held in Florence, Italy, December 10-13, 2013. The IEEE CDC is the annual flagship conference of the IEEE Control Systems Society and one of the premier international conferences in the field of systems and control, featuring both theory and applications. The funds will provide partial support for up to thirty students from US colleges and universities to attend the conference and present their research results.Intellectual Merit:Systems and control theory is ubiquitous in modern, complex, technological systems, from automotive to aerospace systems, biomedical systems, industrial automation systems, robotics, and a host of other systems. It is increasingly evident that current research on many technological frontiers is heavily influenced by foundational ideas from control and system theory. The recent 51st IEEE CDC received over 2300 submissions and accepted 1262 for presentation, many of which are co-authored by students together with their faculty advisers. The intellectual merit of the proposed use of funds is that graduate students will see first-hand how the foundations of control and systems are evolving and shaping the frontiers of research in many applications domains.Broader Impacts:With over 1000 anticipated research presentations, including plenary lectures, workshops and exhibits the CDC provides attendees with exposure to the state-of-the-art in emerging areas of control research and technology. The broader impact of this travel support is that it will help train the next generation of system and control researchers and practitioners. The future security and well-being of the United States relies on maintaining pools of trained scientists and engineers in critical areas such as control technology, systems engineering and automation.The students to be supported under the proposed project represent the future technological leaders of the IEEE Control Systems Society, which is the world's leading professional organization in the discipline.
