NSF Student Travel Grant for the 2020 IEEE International Conference on Network Protocols (ICNP)

这笔旅行补助金用于支持美国研究生参加将于2020年10月13日至16日在西班牙马德里举行的IEEE国际网络协议会议（ICNP）。ICNP是一个涵盖网络协议所有方面的会议，包括设计、分析、规范、验证、实现和性能。这笔旅行补助金旨在通过降低研究生（特别是女性和代表性不足的学生）在美国各院校就读的经济障碍，扩大ICNP的参与。让学生在研究人员学术生涯的早期阶段参加高质量的会议是对该领域未来的明智投资。将优先考虑从参加本次会议中受益匪浅但旅行资金有限的学生，以及第一次参加会议的初级研究生。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 travel grant is used to support US based graduate students to attend IEEE International Conference on Network Protocols (ICNP), to be held in Madrid, Spain, October 13-16, 2020. ICNP is a conference that covers all aspects of network protocols, including design, analysis, specification, verification, implementation, and performance. This travel grant aims to broaden ICNP participation by lowering the financial barrier of attendance for graduate students, in particular female and underrepresented students, at institutions in the Unites States. Enabling students to attend a high-quality conference at an early stage of a researcher's academic career is a wise investment in the future of the field. Priority will be given to the students who will substantially benefit from attending this conference but have limited travel funds, as well as junior graduate students who will attend the conference for the first time.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.
