NSF Student Travel Grant for 2018 Programming Languages

第七届编程语言指导研讨会（PLMW）将于2018年1月17日举行，作为将在加利福尼亚州洛杉矶举行的旗舰编程语言会议“编程语言原理”（POPL）的一部分。这笔赠款将支持大约10名学生参加PLMW活动，以及POPL会议。虽然还有其他资金（通过ACM SIGPLAN PAC）用于在POPL发表论文的学生，但该提案专门用于增加来自代表性不足群体的学生数量，并优先考虑美国公民和永久居民。更广泛的意义和重要性涉及到需要扩大参与，为学生提供机会接受编程语言社区主要成员的指导，并在这个重要的研究领域培养下一代研究人员和知识渊博的实践者。

Title: Student Travel Support for Programming Languages Mentoring Workshop at POPL 2018The Seventh Programming Languages Mentoring Workshop (PLMW) will take place on January 17 2018, as part of the flagship programming language conference, Principles of Programming Languages (POPL), which will be held in Los Angeles, California. This grant will support approximately 10 students to attend the PLMW event, in addition to the POPL conference. While there is other funding available (through ACM SIGPLAN PAC) for students who are presenting papers at POPL, this proposal is intended specifically to increase the numbers of students from underrepresented groups and gives priority to US citizens and permanent residents. The broader significance and importance of the grant relate to the need to broaden participation, provide opportunities for students to receive mentoring from leading members of the programming languages community, and build the next generation of researchers and knowledgeable practitioners in this important research arena.
