Travel: NSF Student Travel Grant for 2022 Internet Measurement Conference (IMC)

由ACM SIGCOMM主办的第22届ACM SIGCOMM互联网测量会议（IMC）将于2022年10月25日至10月27日在法国利基举行。该基金将帮助10 - 12名美国研究生参加会议，传播他们的研究成果，将他们与其他研究人员联系起来，并培养他们成为下一代学者。互联网测量会议（IMC）是互联网测量领域首屈一指的国际会议。参加会议将有助于他们在该领域进行研究。通过这笔旅行补助金，IMC 2022将汇集专家、学者和学生，否则他们可能无法参加。会议将促进三天的互动，相互学习和积极讨论，帮助学生从中学习。会议结束后，学生将被要求提交一份报告，描述(1)他们认为最有价值的会议，(2)他们为通过网络建立的新关系和联系人所做的努力和成果。这一建议将使会议的研究成果传播给更多和更多样化的受众。此外，IMC在向女性和少数族裔学生提供奖学金方面有着良好的记录。为了鼓励来自代表性不足群体的研究人员参与互联网测量研究，在选择过程中，代表性不足的群体或机构将被视为最重要的因素。通过向广泛的学院和大学做广告，来自更多样化机构的参与者也应该能够参加会议并从中受益。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。

The 22nd ACM SIGCOMM Internet Measurement Conference (IMC), sponsored by ACM SIGCOMM will be held in Niche, France October 25 - October 27, 2022. This grant will help 10 - 12 US-based graduate students participate in the conference to disseminate their research outcomes, connect them with other researchers, and train them as the next generation of scholars. The Internet Measurement Conference (IMC) is the premier international conference in the area of Internet measurement. Attending the conference will help them pursue research in the field.Through this travel grant, the IMC 2022 will bring together the expertise, scholars, and students who might not otherwise be able to attend. The conference will facilitate three days of interactions and mutual learning and active discussion, which help the students learn from them. Upon completion of the conference, the students will be required to submit a report describing (1) the session that they find most valuable and (2) the efforts and outcomes that they made for the new relationships and contacts made through networking.This proposal will increase the dissemination of the conference's research results to a larger and more diverse audience. Moreover, IMC has a strong track record of giving preference in grant awards to women and minority students. To encourage researchers from under-represented groups to get involved with Internet measurement research, in the selection process, under-represented groups or institutions will be considered the most important factor. Advertising to a wide range of colleges and universities, participants from a more diverse set of institutions should also be able to attend and benefit from the conference.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.
