NSF Student Travel Grant for 2019 ACM International Conference on Mobile Systems, Applications, and Services (ACM MobiSys)

ACM移动系统、应用和服务国际会议(ACM MobiSys)是展示移动系统、应用和服务的创新和重大研究的首屈一指的活动。MobiSys的研究主题涵盖多个学科，包括无线网络和通信、移动传感和众包应用、可穿戴计算、车载和机器人无线系统、操作系统、分布式算法、数据管理、能源管理、传感器、安全和隐私。ACM MobiSys将学术界、产业界和政府的专业人士聚集在一个单一的、高度选择性的论坛上，从而为研究人员追求移动系统、应用和服务的技术进步提供了一个理想的场所。这项学生旅行支持的目标是促进学生的研究参与，特别是那些资金不足、代表不足或以其他方式不可能参加移动系统上的知名会议的学生。这笔资金将极大地鼓励这些学生变得活跃起来，然后在相关领域的最新研究方向上处于领先地位。该基金的目标是支持大约20名来自美国公认高等教育机构的学生参与者。他们将由会议学生旅行补助委员会挑选，以最大限度地发挥他们从MobiSys获得的潜在好处，同时优先支持资金不足或代表性不足的社区。NSF的支持将得到所有会议组织者和与会者的高度认可，其影响将与学生推荐信以及所有重要信息一起报告，包括宣布和遴选过程。学生参与者将有机会在一个充满活力的领域交流创新想法，这将对他们未来的研究方向产生重大影响。他们的想法将为移动系统和相关领域的未来提供动力。这一奖项反映了NSF的法定使命，并通过使用基金会的智力优势和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估，被认为值得支持。

The ACM International Conference on Mobile Systems, Applications, and Services (ACM MobiSys) is a premiere event for presenting innovative and significant research of mobile systems, applications and services. The research topics of MobiSys span multiple disciplines, including wireless networks and communication, mobile sensing and crowdsourcing applications, wearable computing, vehicular and robotic wireless systems, operating systems, distributed algorithms, data management, energy management, sensors, security and privacy. ACM MobiSys brings together academic, industry, and government professionals to a single-track, highly selective forum, and thus provides an ideal venue for researchers pursuing technological advances of mobile systems, applications and services. The goal of this student travel support is to promote research engagement of students, especially ones who are not well-funded, under-represented, or otherwise not likely to be able to attend high-profile conferences on mobile systems. The grant will highly encourage such students to become active and then take the lead in the latest research directions in the related fields.The goal of the funds is to support approximately 20 student participants at recognized US institutions of higher education. They will be selected by the conference student travel grants committee to maximize their potential benefits from MobiSys, while prioritizing support for under-funded or under-represented communities. The support of NSF will be highly recognized by all the conference organizers and attendees, and its impact will be reported along with students testimonials, as well as all the significant information including announcement and selection process. The student participants will have opportunities to exchange innovative ideas in a vibrant field, which will significantly impact their future research directions. Their ideas will offer momentum to the future of mobile systems and related fields.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.
