NSF Student Travel Grant for 2020 Conferences on File and Storage Technologies (FAST) and Networked Design and Implementation (NSDI)

本基金为参加以下研究会议的美国大学研究生提供资金：-第18届USENIX文件和存储技术会议（FAST 2020）， 2020年2月24日至27日，美国加利福尼亚州圣克拉拉。-第17届USENIX网络系统设计与实现研讨会（NSDI 2020）， 2020年2月25日至27日在美国加利福尼亚州圣克拉拉市举行。USENIX协会组织关于计算创新和研究的会议，在来自工业界、政府和学术界的研究人员和实践者之间建立合作关系。这些活动为参加的计算机科学研究生提供教育、指导和交流的机会。在这些会议上分享和先进的研究和计算知识对日常生活中使用的许多工具以及计算技术的伦理、文化和社会后果具有实际和有意义的应用。这项资助允许那些原本无法参加会议的学生参与，并将研究的影响扩展到来自全国各地的年轻研究人员的广泛受众。USENIX是一个开放获取的组织，在这些活动中展示和发布的所有研究和结果都是免费提供给公众的。这笔资金将支持20名学生参加FAST 2020会议。FAST是存储系统研究的论坛，汇集了来自工业界和学术界的顶级研究人员和实践者，探索存储系统设计、实现、评估和部署的新方向。会议将包括两天半的技术演示，包括评审论文、工作进展报告和两次海报会议。在技术会议的前几天还会有培训课程。自2008年以来，FAST每年举办一次，在此之前每两年举办一次。这笔资金将支持20名学生参加NSDI 2020会议。NSDI关注大规模网络和分布式系统建设中的设计原则和挑战。特别感兴趣的领域包括云服务、无线、互联网路由、点对点系统、传感器网络、可扩展web服务、数据中心网络、分布式恶意软件和分布式网络测量。NSDI将来自整个网络和系统社区（包括计算机网络、分布式系统和操作系统）的研究人员联合起来，以促进跨学科方法并解决共同的研究挑战。该奖项反映了美国国家科学基金会的法定使命，并通过使用基金会的知识价值和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估，被认为值得支持。

This grant requests funding for graduate students attending US Universities to travel to the following research conferences:-18th USENIX Conference on File and Storage Technologies (FAST 2020), February 24-27, 2020, Santa Clara, CA, USA.-17th USENIX Symposium on Networked Systems Design and Implementation (NSDI 2020), February 25-27, 2020 in Santa Clara, CA, USA.The USENIX Association organizes conferences on computing innovation and research that build collaborations between researchers and practitioners from industry, government, and academia. These events provide educational, mentorship, and networking opportunities to graduate students in the computer sciences who attend. The research and computing knowledge shared and advanced at these conferences has practical and meaningful application to many tools used in daily life, as well as to the ethical, cultural, and social ramifications of computing technology. This grant allows the participation of students who would otherwise be unable to attend the conference, and extends the impact of the research presented to a broad audience of young researchers from across the country. USENIX is an open access organization, and all research and results presented and published at these events are freely available to the public.This grant will support 20 students for the FAST 2020 meeting. FAST is a forum for research in storage systems, bringing together top researchers and practitioners from both industry and academia to explore new directions in the design, implementation, evaluation, and deployment of storage systems. The conference will consist of two and a half days of technical presentations, including refereed papers, Work-in-Progress reports, and two poster sessions. There will also be training sessions offered on the days prior to the technical sessions. FAST has been taking place annually since 2008, and bi-annually prior to that. This grant will support 20 students for the NSDI 2020 meeting. NSDI focuses on the design principles and challenges in the construction of large-scale networks and distributed systems. Particular areas of interest include cloud services, wireless, internet routing, peer-to-peer systems, sensor nets, scalable web services, data center networking, distributed malware, and distributed network measurement. NSDI unites researchers from across the networking and systems community—including computer networking, distributed systems, and operating systems—to foster cross-disciplinary approaches and to address shared research challenges.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.
