Student Support for the 2018 ACM International Conference on Management of Data (SIGMOD-2018)

该奖项为来自美国的约16名学生提供支持- 2018年6月10日至6月15日在美国德克萨斯州休斯顿举行的2018年ACM SIGMOD国际数据管理会议（https：//sigmod2018.org/）。所提供的支持使学生能够参加会议，讨论和传播他们的工作。会议还为学生提供了一个与其他学生和高级研究人员互动的机会，并形成未来的国家和国际科学合作者。SIGMOD的目标之一是让代表性不足的学生更广泛地参与数据库研究，并努力拥有多样化的受资助学生群体。SIGMOD会议成立于1975年，拥有一个动态和全面的出版，教育和互动计划，包括研究论文，教程，小组，工业论文，技术演示和本科生研究论文。该计划包括与广泛定义的数据管理的各个方面有关的出版物，特别是鼓励在研究和开发社区中新兴兴趣的主题出版物。该计划还包括与当前数据管理研究和开发相关的主题研讨会，工业展览以及学术界和工业界领导人的主题演讲。所有这些活动为学生提供了一个独特的机会，与来自学术界和工业界的国际公认的研究人员分享他们的知识，经验和研究工作。近年来，有600多名研究人员参加了SIGMOD，预计今年也将如此。该奖项反映了NSF的法定使命，并通过使用基金会的知识价值和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估，被认为值得支持。

This award provides support for about 16 students from U.S.-based institutions to attend the 2018 ACM SIGMOD International Conference on Management of Data, to be held in Houston, TX, USA (https://sigmod2018.org/) from June 10 to June 15, 2018. The provided support enables the students to attend the conference and discuss and disseminate their work. The conference also provides an opportunity for the students to interact with other students and senior researchers and form future national and international scientific collaborators. One of the SIGMOD goals it to broader participation of underrepresented students in database research and an effort will be made to have a diverse group of the supported students.The SIGMOD conference, which was established in 1975, has a dynamic and comprehensive program for publication, education, and interaction, including research papers, tutorials, panels, industrial papers, technical demonstrations, and undergraduate research papers. The program includes publications relating to all aspects of data management defined broadly, and particularly encourages publications on topics of emerging interest in the research and development communities. The program also includes workshops on topics relevant to current data management research and development, industrial exhibits, and keynote talks by leaders in academia and industry. All these activities provide a unique opportunity for students to share their knowledge, experience, and research work with internationally recognized researchers from both academia and industry. In recent years, more than 600 researchers attended SIGMOD, and the same is expected this year. SIGMOD Proceedings will be accessible via the ACM Digital Library.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.
