STUDENT TRAVEL GRANTS
The 39th
IEEE/IFIP International Conference on Dependable Systems and Networks
is soliciting applications for travel scholarships to partially offset
the cost of students planning to attend DSN-2009 in Lisbon, Portugal
June 29 – July 2, 2009.
To be eligible, the
applicant must be enrolled in a degree program at the time of DSN-2009.
Authors of accepted papers and fast abstracts, students currently
submitting papers to the Student Forum, and other students are all
welcome to apply. Participation, such as presenting a regular paper or
a paper in the Student Forum, will be used as one criterion in awarding
the scholarships.
We anticipate awarding travel and
registration grants with a value in the range of €800 per student
(indicative, non-binding, estimate from previous years), thanks
primarily to the support of our industrial sponsors, IEEE and IFIP.
Some of this award may take the form of a waived registration fee. We
expect to have a fair number of student grants, with the number
available depending on industrial
donations.
Student Travel Grant Application
Submission:
To apply, submit by email a
write-up not
exceeding 500 words stating your student status and
summarizing your current research related to dependable computing, what
you hope to learn by attending the conference, and how you expect it to
affect your future research directions. Synthesis is a quality of a
good researcher, too long statement will play against
yourself.
