NSF Student Travel Grant for the ACM Conference on Information-Centric Networking 2018 (ACM ICN 2018)

这笔旅行补助金将资助15名学生参加2018年9月21日至23日在马萨诸塞州波士顿东北大学举行的年度ACM信息中心网络会议。这次会议是研究相对较新的信息中心网络概念的主要场所，该概念由于NSF的未来互联网体系结构计划而获得了信任。有机会参加会议的学生将接触并与该研究领域的领导者互动，包括同行评议的论文，海报和演示会议以及社交活动。让研究生接触他们所选择的研究领域的研究场所和参与者是他们教育的关键部分。这些旅行补助金将使他们能够参加会议。当研究人员能够直接互动，讨论和质疑彼此的研究时，最好的研究就会出现。这在研究会议上非常有效地实现了。让学生充分参与是培养下一代顶尖研究人员的关键。他们被纳入研究界并能够参加这类会议的频率越高，他们成为成熟的研究人员的准备就越充分。该奖项一般支持美国学生，但特别针对女性，代表性不足的少数民族和残疾学生。该奖项反映了美国国家科学基金会的法定使命，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 travel grant helps fund 15 students to attend the annual ACM Conference in Information-Centric Networking, September 21-23, 2018 at Northeastern University, Boston, Massachusetts. This conference is the leading venue for research on the relatively new concept of Information Centric networking that gained credence as a result of the NSF's Future Internet Architecture program. Students given the opportunity to attend and participate in the conference will be exposed to and interact with the leaders in this field of research, a full program of peer-reviewed papers, poster and demonstration sessions, and social events. Exposing graduate students to the research venues and participants in the research field of their choice is a critical part of their education. These travel grants will allow them to attend.The best research occurs when researchers are able to interact directly, discussing and questioning each others' research. This is very effectively achieved at research conferences. Enabling students to participate fully is key to building the next generation of top-notch researchers. The more frequently they are included in the research community and able to participate in such conferences, the better prepared they will be to become full-fledged researchers. This award supports US students generally, but specifically targets women, underrepresented minorities, and students with disabilities.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.
