NSF Student Travel Grant for 2019 ACM SIGPLAN Conference on Systems, Programming, Languages and Applications: Software for Humanity (SPLASH)

ACM SIGPLAN系统、编程、语言和应用会议(SPLASH)涵盖了软件构建和交付的方方面面，使其成为编程语言和软件工程交叉领域的主要会议之一。这笔赠款提供旅费，以支持学生参加2019年10月20日至25日在希腊雅典举行的会议。支助将包括参加辅导讲习班以及出席主要会议。这笔赠款将用于美国公民/居民，优先考虑代表人数不足的群体、首次出席者和需要经济支持的人。这笔赠款将使会议能够进行技术信息交流和研究对话/合作，并使这些互动能够在该领域取得进展。该提案还提供参与者所接受的教育、培训和指导。这次会议的国际性有助于在美国培养一支具有全球意识的研究和教育工作者队伍，并帮助建立软件工程领域的研究人员社区。该奖项反映了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 SIGPLAN Conference on Systems, Programming, Languages and Applications: Software for Humanity (SPLASH) embraces all aspects of software construction and delivery to make it one of the premier conferences at the intersection of programming languages and software engineering. This grant provides travel funds to support student attendance to the conference, held at Athens, Greece during 20 - 25 October 2019. The support will cover attendance at a mentoring workshop as well as attendance at the main conference. The grant will be used for US citizens/residents, giving priority to underrepresented groups, first-time attendees, and those in need of economic support. The grant will enable the technical exchange of information and research conversations/collaborations made possible by the conference, as well as advances in the field made possible by these interactions. The proposal also provides education, training and mentoring received by the participants. The international nature of this conference helps develop a globally-aware workforce of research and educators within the US and helps build the community of researchers in the field of Software Engineering.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.
