STUDENT TRAVEL GRANTS
The 40th
IEEE/IFIP International Conference on Dependable Systems and Networks
is soliciting applications for travel grants to partially offset
the cost of students planning to attend DSN-2010 in Chicago, Illinois,
June 28 – July 1, 2010.
To be eligible, the
applicant must be enrolled in a degree program at the time of DSN-2010.
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 grants with a value in the range of $750 –
$1000 per student (amount non-binding, estimated from previous years), thanks
primarily to the support of our industrial sponsors, IEEE, and IFIP.
Some of the grant amount may take the form of a waived registration fee. We
expect to award approximately 15 grants, depending on industrial
donations.
Questions or comments about Student Travel Grants should be directed to

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. Ability to summarize is a quality of a
good researcher, therefore too long a statement will be to the applicant's
disadvantage.
Also include, at the front of your
submission, in this order: -
Your name, postal address, electronic mail address, and telephone number
- To which DSN component, if
any, did you submit a contribution (PDS, DCCS, which workshop, student
forum, fast abstracts)? - What
is your paper title? - Was your
paper accepted (if known)? -
What degree program are you in
(BS/MS/MS+PhD/PhD)? - Who is
your thesis advisor/supervisor?
Applications must be
received no later than April 19, 2010. Application submission is via
e-mail, preferably as a pdf attachment, to the following address:
DSN_student_travel_grantece.gatech.edu.
All submissions will be confirmed via return e-mail. If you do not
receive a confirmation within 48 hours of sending the e-mail please
contact the Student Forum Chair by email.
