International Symposium on Multi-Robot and Multi-Agent Systems (MRS 2019) Student Travel Awards

这些资金将支持学生参加为期两天的单轨MRS 2019会议和相关的辅导活动。会议将于2019年8月22日至8月23日在美国新泽西州新玩法举行。会议将在新泽西的州立大学罗格斯大学校园举行。该提案要求提供资金支持，以帮助大约15名美国学生参加MRS 2019会议。 参加会议将为研究生和高年级本科生提供动力和兴奋，继续他们在多机器人和多智能体系统方面的研究之旅。这项学生旅行资助提案的目的是使美国学生能够参加会议，展示他们的工作，并与来自世界各地的同事建立联系。除了论文介绍，MRS 2019将展出4？国际知名机器人专家的6场主题演讲。这些演讲将提供简洁的，第一手的信息，历史的观点，目前的国家的最先进的，和未来的趋势，多机器人和多智能体系统，这是很难得到的，否则。 多机器人会议的总体目标与核心的Robust Intelligence计划和国家机器人计划（NRI 2.0）等跨领域计划密切相关。特别是，MRS的主要主题，重点是多机器人和多智能体系统，与NRI 2.0的协作机器人主题相吻合。该奖项反映了NSF的法定使命，并已被认为是值得通过使用基金会的智力价值和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估的支持。

The funds will support student attendance of the two-day single-track MRS 2019 conference and associated mentoring activities. The conference will be held in New Brunswick, NJ, USA, between August 22nd and August 23rd in 2019. The conference will be hosted on the campus of Rutgers, the State University of New Jersey. The proposal requests funding support to help approximately 15 U.S. students to attend the MRS 2019 conference. Participation in the conference will provide motivation and excitement for graduate students and advanced undergraduate students to continue their research journey in multi-robot and multi-agent systems.The purpose of this Student Travel Grant Proposal is to make it possible for U.S. students to attend the conference, present their work, and forge connections with colleagues from around the world. In addition to paper presentations, MRS 2019 will feature 4?6 keynote presentations by internationally renowned roboticists. These presentations will provide succinct, first-hand information on historical perspectives, current state-of-the-art, and future trends of multi- robot and multi-agent systems, which are hard to come by otherwise. The overall goal of the multi-robot meeting closely matches the core Robust Intelligence program and cross cutting programs like the National Robotics Initiative (NRI 2.0). In particular, the main theme of MRS, which focuses on multi-robot and multi-agent systems, coincides with the collaborative robotics theme of NRI 2.0.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.
