NeTS: N2Women Student Travel Support for the 2016 SIGCOMM Conference

该项目是会议旅行支持，并建议为代表不足的研究生提供旅行支持，以参加网络女性（N2Women）活动和SIGCOMM 2016。SIGCOMM是网络的旗舰会议，参加会议为研究生提供了一个很好的机会。参加SIGCOMM不仅让学生接触到该领域的前沿研究，还提供了与高级研究人员互动的机会。积极参与可以是具有挑战性的学生谁是第一次与会者，并知道在SIGCOMM社区，这是特别常见的代表性不足的学生，因为很少有其他少数民族参与者在会议内的人很少。N2Women活动与会议位于同一地点，旨在使学生更容易充分参与会议。积极参与SIGCOMM是让学生接触新思想并激发学生解决各自领域坚韧的有效方式。申请的差旅费将允许更多代表性不足的学生参加N2Women活动，参加高质量的技术会议，并与高级研究人员互动。这笔申请的旅费将有助于促进在SIGCOMM中代表不足的少数族裔社区，并为少数族裔学生的职业发展创造一个友好的环境。预计参加N2Women活动和SIGCOMM会议对学生职业生涯的影响将是巨大的。

This project is for conference travel support and proposes to provide travel support for under-represented graduate students to attend the Networking for Networking Women (N2Women) event and SIGCOMM 2016. SIGCOMM is the flagship conference for networking, and participation in the conference provides a great opportunity for graduate students. Attending SIGCOMM not only exposes students to leading-edge research in the field, but also provides an opportunity to interact with senior researchers. Active participation can be challenging for students who are first-time attendees and know few people within the SIGCOMM community, which is especially common for under-represented students since there are few other minority participants at the conference. The N2Women event, co-located with the conference, aims to make it easier for the students to fully participate in the conference. Active participation in SIGCOMM is an effective way to expose students to new ideas and inspire students to address the tough problems in their respective fields.The requested travel funds will allow more under-represented students to attend N2Women events, participate in a high-quality technical conference, and interact with senior researchers. This requested travel funds will help foster the under-represented minority community at SIGCOMM and promote a friendly environment for minority students to develop their career. It is expected that the impact to the students careers from attending the N2Women event and the SIGCOMM conference to be substantial.
