NSF Student Travel Grant for 2020 ACM International Conference on Measurement and Modeling of Computer Systems (ACM SIGMETRICS 2020)

计算机械协会(ACM)测量与评估特别兴趣小组(SIGMETRICS)2020会议将于2020年6月8日至12日在马萨诸塞州波士顿东北大学国际科学与工程综合体举行。ACM SIGMETRICS 2020旨在提供一个高质量的论坛，用于展示结果和讨论想法，以促进我们对计算和网络系统的测量、建模、分析和设计的了解和理解。会议对计算机系统进行了广泛的解释，包括传统的计算系统以及社交网络、数据网络和其他类型的系统。特别鼓励具有高度原创性的想法、新方法和/或开创性成果的贡献。这笔赠款为大约25名美国学生参加SIGMETRICS 2020会议提供旅费支持。这种支持将使原本无法参加会议的学生能够参加会议。将特别注意向各种任职人数不足的人口提供支助。SIGMETRICS汇集了来自不同学术和行业背景的专业人士；因此，学生参与者将有机会与不同性别、种族和背景的导师和同龄人互动。学生还将从以学生为中心的活动中受益，包括学生工作坊/小组和学生研究竞赛。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 Association for Computing Machinery (ACM) Special Interest Group on Measurement and Evaluation (SIGMETRICS) 2020 conference will be held at the International Science and Engineering Complex of Northeastern University in Boston, MA from June 8–12, 2020. ACM SIGMETRICS 2020 aims to provide a high-quality forum for presenting results and discussing ideas that further our knowledge and understanding of the measurement, modeling, analysis, and design of computing and networked systems. The conference interprets computer systems broadly, including traditional computing systems as well as social networks, data networks, and other types of systems. Contributions containing highly original ideas, new approaches, and/or ground-breaking results are particularly encouraged.This grant provides travel support for about 25 US based students to attend the SIGMETRICS 2020 conference. The support will make possible the participation of students who would otherwise be unable to attend the conference. Particular attention will be paid to directing support towards various underrepresented population. SIGMETRICS brings together professionals from a wide variety of academic and industrial backgrounds; student participants will thus get the opportunity to interact with mentors and peers of varying gender, ethnicity and background. Students will also benefit from the student-centric events, including a student workshop/panel and a student research competition.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.
