Student Support for the 2018 U.S. Semantic Technologies Symposium (US2TS)

该奖项为美国指导的10名学生提供旅行支持，使他们能够参加2018年3月1日至2日在俄亥俄州代顿举行的第一届美国语义技术研讨会（US2TS） （http://www.us2ts.org）。语义网本质上是一个多学科的领域。然而，计算机科学、自然科学和社会科学之间的分歧限制了形成一个连贯的研究议程，以探索语义技术的新兴趋势。有必要将美国语义网社区聚集在一起，并开始在不同领域的语义网从业者之间形成一个研究网络。数据密集型研究的需求日益增长，语义Web应用程序的多学科特征使得通过向学生推广以促进未来跨学科的科学创新来维持和扩大现有劳动力至关重要。在研讨会期间，将为学生参与者组织一些活动。学生，包括代表性不足的群体（女性和少数民族）和本科生，将有机会相互交流，并与参加研讨会的经验丰富的研究人员交流，获得宝贵的经验，使他们能够在新一代语义网从业者之间培养长期的跨学科和全国范围的合作，这些从业者最终将在各个层面塑造语义网研究和应用的未来。语义网研究人员、学生和实践者之间的跨学科和跨部门的交流和网络是US2TS的核心。随着对网络的日益依赖，以及大规模数据共享、集成和重用的重要性不断增加，不同学科的研究人员需要将这些努力联系起来。US2TS的目标是促进社区整合和建立一个以美国为基础的社区研究网络。研讨会将提供一个论坛，与会者可以借此分享信息和想法，协调正在进行或计划中的研究活动，促进综合和新的合作，制定社区标准，并通过交流和分享想法来推进科学和教育。学生参与US2TS有望提高下一代科学家对开放数据和开放科学的理解和技能，因为语义网技术与这些主题密切相关。

This award provides travel support to ten student at U.S. instructions, enabling them to participle at the 1st U.S. Semantic Technologies Symposium (US2TS), held March 01-02, 2018 in Dayton, Ohio (http://www.us2ts.org). Semantic Web is an inherently multi-disciplinary field. Yet, the division between computer science, natural science and social science limits the formation of a coherent research agenda for exploring emerging trends in Semantic Technologies. There is a need to bring together the U.S. Semantic Web community and begin forming a research network among Semantic Web practitioners in different domains. The increasing demand of data-intensive research and the multidisciplinary characteristics of Semantic Web applications make it crucial to maintain and expand the existing workforce through outreach to students to foster future scientific innovation across disciplines. Several activities will be organized for the student participants during the symposium. The students, including underrepresented groups (women and minorities) and undergraduates will have the opportunity to network with each other and the experienced researchers attending the symposium, gaining valuable experience that will enable them to foster long-lasting interdisciplinary and national-wide collaborations among a new generation of Semantic Web practitioners who will ultimately shape the future of Semantic Web research and applications at all levels. Cross-disciplinary and cross-sectoral communication and networking among Semantic Web researchers, students and practitioners is the core of the US2TS. With an ever-growing dependence on the web, and the continuously increasing importance of large-scale data sharing, integration, and reuse, researchers in various disciplines, there is a need to connect these efforts. US2TS has goal to stimulate community consolidation and the building of a U.S.-based community research network. The symposium will provide a forum by which participants can share information and ideas, coordinate ongoing or planned research activities, foster synthesis and new collaborations, develop community standards, and advance science and education through communication and the sharing of ideas. Student participation in US2TS is expected to improve understanding and skills of open data and open science among the next generation scientists, as Semantic Web technologies are closely relevant to those topics.
