Student Travel Grant for Embedded Systems Week (ESWEEK) 2019

该奖项将支持学生参加2019年度嵌入式系统周（ESWEEK），该周将在纽约州纽约市的纽约大学（NYU）校园举行。ESWEEK是一个首屈一指的国际盛会，汇集了该领域的三个领先会议，即嵌入式系统的嵌入式、体系结构和综合国际会议（CASES），硬件/软件协同设计和系统综合国际会议（CODES+ISSS）和ACM SIGBED嵌入式软件国际会议（EMSOFT），以及几个共同举办的研讨会，教程，和一个共同举办的研讨会，即片上网络国际研讨会（NOCS）。ESWEEK会议传统上由大量学生参加，使他们有机会与来自世界各地的学术界和工业界的同行进行互动，并使他们能够通过论文和海报展示参与。除了按学生优惠费率收取的注册费外，上学的主要费用包括旅费和生活费。这些往往被证明是超出了学生的负担能力的限制，包括那些来自代表性不足的群体。该奖项将为大约30名符合条件的学生提供平均500美元的旅行支持，以支付他们参加和参与的费用，从而增加ESWEEK学生的数量和多样性。优先考虑学生在ESWEEK及其伴随的（共同定位）研讨会和研讨会上展示他们的研究工作，优先考虑美国公民和永久居民以及代表性不足的群体。将特别联系代表性不足的群体，并大力鼓励他们申请这一旅费赠款。这一建议将改善会议，因为学生的出席率增加，以及更多样化的参与。这将有助于吸引代表性不足的少数民族和妇女进入嵌入式系统和STEM研究领域。最后，获得支持的学生将通过与其他学生以及该领域的专家互动而受益，使他们能够建立网络并建立联系，以帮助他们的职业生涯向前发展，从而帮助培养对美国技术劳动力至关重要的未来一代嵌入式系统设计师。该奖项反映了NSF的法定使命，并通过使用基金会的学术价值和更广泛的影响评审标准。

This award will support student travel to attend the 2019 annual Embedded Systems Week (ESWEEK) to be held on the New York University (NYU) campus in New York City, NY. The ESWEEK is a premier international event that brings together three leading conferences in the field, the International Conference on Compilers, Architecture, and Synthesis for Embedded Systems (CASES), the International Conference on Hardware/Software Codesign and System Synthesis (CODES+ISSS), and the ACM SIGBED International Conference on Embedded Software (EMSOFT), as well as several co-located workshops, tutorials, and one co-located symposium, the International Symposium on Networks-on-Chip (NOCS). The ESWEEK conferences are traditionally attended by a large number of students, allowing them opportunities for interaction with peers from academia and industry around the world, and enabling their participation via paper and poster presentation. Beyond registration fees at reduced student rates, major expenses for attendance include travel and subsistence costs. These often prove to be beyond limits of affordability of students including those from underrepresented groups.The award will provide travel support averaging $500 for approximately 30 eligible students to defray their costs of attending and participating and thus increase both the number and diversity of the student population at ESWEEK. Priority will be given to students presenting their research work at ESWEEK and its accompanying (co-located) symposia and workshops, with preference given to US citizens and permanent residents as well as under-represented groups. Under-represented groups will be specifically reached out to and strongly encouraged to apply for this travel grant. This proposal will improve the conference because the increased attendance by students as well as a more diverse participation. It will help to attract under-represented minorities and women to the field of embedded systems and STEM research in general. Finally, students that receive support will benefit by interacting with other students as well as with experts in the field, enabling them to network and establish connections that can help their professional careers going forward, thus helping to create future generations of embedded system designers crucial to technological workforce of the US.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.
