WORKSHOP: Doctoral Consortium at the 2014 ACM International Conference on Collaboration Across Boundaries (CABS 2014)

这笔资金用于支持美国教育机构的学生和教职员工参加一个博士联盟(研讨会)，该联盟将汇集来自学术界和工业界的有前途的博士生和杰出的研究人员，该联盟将与将于8月20-22日在日本京都举行的第五届国际ACM跨国界合作：文化、距离和技术会议(CABS 2014)一起举行。一年一度的CABS会议由计算机械协会的计算机-人类交互特别兴趣小组(SIGCHI)赞助，是一个日益增长的国际论坛，用于展示和讨论专注于理解和支持跨文化交流和全球团队的研究和实践。CABS是研究人员的聚集点，他们在理解如何利用技术来沟通来自不同文化的人方面有着共同的兴趣。会议的一个基本前提是，只有通过多学科的努力，才能充分解决跨文化交流与合作中出现的语言和文化难题。因此，与会者来自不同的学科，包括计算机科学、工程学、管理科学、信息科学、传播学、心理学、社会学和人类学。与会者也来自全球，来自美国、中国、日本、韩国、以色列、法国、丹麦、德国、英国和其他国家。会议征集竞争性论文、小组讨论、演示和其他投稿；同行评议、档案论文和笔记出现在ACM数字图书馆。有关会议的更多信息，请访问http://cabs.acm.org/2014/.The CABS博士联盟，该联盟是一个由10-12名选定的博士生和4-5名来自学术界和工业界的杰出研究人员组成的以研究为重点的会议。该活动的目标是帮助启动跨文化合作领域的杰出研究人员的职业生涯，将于8月20日举行，8月21日至22日会议技术项目期间将举行后续活动。NSF基金将支持一名来自美国的高级研究员(PI)和8名美国教育机构的学生参与。全天的博士联盟将为学生提供接触他们的研究社区的机会，有机会介绍他们的工作，并从该领域的同行和资深研究人员那里获得建设性的反馈，并有充足的时间开始建立同行和导师的专业支持网络(例如，在组织和工作晚宴期间)。反馈旨在帮助学生参与者了解并清楚地说明他们的工作相对于其他CAB研究的定位，他们的主题是否足够专注于论文研究项目，他们的方法是否得到正确的选择和应用，他们的结果是否得到适当的分析和展示等。学生参与者还将在CABS技术课程期间以海报的形式展示他们的工作，这是他们在到达之前就准备好的。在互动海报会议期间，学生将与感兴趣的与会者讨论他们的工作，但海报将在整个会议的三天中供查看。这样，学生的作品就可以向与会者展示，学生们也有机会从更多的观众那里获得反馈。此外，所有博士联合会与会者报告的摘要将作为一个包打印出来，分发给所有CAB与会者，每个报告的完整扩展摘要将在CABS 2014网站上提供。活动组织者将做出特别努力，促进美国机构和种族团体的参与，这些机构和种族团体在出租车上的代表传统上一直不足。他们还将考虑在被录取的学生组合中实现公平的性别平衡。为了进一步增加学生参与者的多样性，组织者承诺不超过1名来自任何特定院校的学生，除非有2名不同性别的合格学生申请，在这种情况下，两名学生都可能被接受。

This is funding to support participation by students and faculty based in U.S. educational institutions in a Doctoral Consortium (workshop) that will bring together promising doctoral students and distinguished researchers from academia and industry, to be held in conjunction with the 5th International ACM Conference on Collaboration Across Boundaries: Culture, Distance and Technology (CABS 2014), which will take place in Kyoto, Japan, on August 20-22. Sponsored by the Association for Computing Machinery's Special Interest Group on Computer-Human Interaction (SIGCHI), the annual CABS conference is a growing international forum for the presentation and discussion of research and practice focused on understanding and supporting intercultural communication and global teams. CABS serves as a gathering point for researchers who share a common interest in understanding how technology can be used to bridge people from multiple cultures. A fundamental premise of the conference is that the difficult problems of language and culture that arise in cross-cultural communication and collaboration can only be adequately addressed by multidisciplinary efforts. Thus, attendees come from diverse academic disciplines including computer science, engineering, management science, information science, communication, psychology, sociology, and anthropology. Attendees also span the globe, with participation from the United States, China, Japan, Korea, Israel, France, Denmark, Germany, the UK, and other countries. The conference solicits competitive paper, panel, demo and other submissions; peer-reviewed, archival papers and notes appear in the ACM Digital Library. More information about the conference may be found online at http://cabs.acm.org/2014/.The CABS Doctoral Consortium is a research-focused meeting of a group of 10-12 selected PhD candidates and a panel of 4-5 distinguished researchers from academia and industry. The event, whose goal is to help launch the careers of outstanding researchers in the area of intercultural collaboration, will take place on August 20, with follow-up events during the conference's technical program on August 21-22. NSF funds will support participation by one senior researcher from the United States (the PI) and 8 students based in U.S. educational institutions. The full-day Doctoral Consortium will provide students with exposure to their research community, with an opportunity to present their work and receive constructive feedback from peers and senior researchers in the field, and with ample time to start building a professional support network of peers and mentors (e.g., during the organizational and working dinners). The feedback is geared toward helping student participants understand and articulate how their work is positioned relative to other CABS research, whether their topics are adequately focused for dissertation research projects, whether their methods are correctly chosen and applied, whether their results are being appropriately analyzed and presented, etc. The student participants will also present their work as posters, which they have prepared before arrival, during the CABS technical program. During the interactive poster session the students will be present to discuss their work with interested attendees, but the posters will be available for viewing throughout the entire three days of the conference. The students' work is thus showcased for conference attendees, and the students have the opportunity to get feedback from a larger audience. In addition, abstracts for all Doctoral Consortium attendee presentations will be printed as a packet to be distributed to all CABS attendees, and the full extended abstract for each presentation will be made available on the CABS 2014 website. The event organizers will make special efforts to promote participation from U.S. institutions and ethnic groups that have been traditionally underrepresented at CABS. They will also consider equitable gender balance in the mix of accepted students. To further increase diversity among the student participants, the organizers have committed to accepting no more than 1 student from any particular institution, except in the case that 2 qualified students of different genders apply in which case both may be accepted.
