Student Travel Support for the 12th ACM Conference on Embedded Networked Sensor Systems (SenSys 2014)

ACM Sensys会议是有关无线传感器网络和系统的领先国际会议。它邀请针对无线传感器系统、算法和应用领域的挑战的研究贡献。这次会议的特点是高质量的技术方案，在大约250份提交的材料中，接受率约为10%。它有一个单轨课程，为个人和小团体提供了重要的机会，促进不同参与者之间的技术和社会互动。这一奖励将提供25笔或更多的旅费补助金，每人最高限额为750美元，从而帮助增加在美国的学生出席会议的人数和参与度。通过为研究生，特别是那些来自代表不足群体的研究生创造参加高质量会议的新机会，该奖项将使学生受益，使他们有机会与世界一流的研究人员互动，激励他们尝试新的研究方向，提供指导机会，以及寻找实习和博士后职位的机会，这将有助于学生在研究生涯中取得进步。

ACM Sensys conference is the leading international conference on wireless sensor networks and systems. It invites research contributions addressing the challenges in the area of wireless sensor systems, algorithms, and applications. The conference features a high-quality technical program, with an acceptance rate of around 10% out of around 250 submissions. It has a single-track session, which offers significant opportunities for individual and small groups that foster technical and social interactions among a diverse set of participants. This award will help increase the representation and participation of United States-based students at the conference by providing 25 or more travel grants limited to a maximum of $750 each. By creating new opportunities for graduate students, especially those from under-represented groups, to attend a high-quality conference, this award will benefit the students by giving them an opportunity to interact with world-class researchers, inspire them to try new research directions, providing mentoring opportunities, as well as the chance to seek out internships and post-doctoral positions which will help the students advance in their research career.
